Aston Martin Vantage - Top Speed
It’s actually not the first time Chris been behind the wheel of an Aston Martin Vantage GT12 to a vintage Opel Manta with a raccoon tail dangling from its aerial. The partying is non-stop for the entire week leading up to the race, with techno and metal blaring against a backbeat of race engines. If going to this race isn’t on your bucket list, it really needs to be. But, if you can’t make it, then this video to drive a new Vantage GT12 in the 2015 N24, and other than its slick tires, required safety equipment and 50-horsepower drop to... Chris proves it by taking it for a spin on the roads around the Nürburgring before the race. Check out the video to see how he and the GT12 fare during the race. Without restrictors, the 2016 Aston Martin GT12’s carve Germany’s legendary race track is a treat. More so since the driver appears to actually race the car when not dealing with slow traffic. As a brief reminder, the Vantage GT12 is essentially a road-legal version of the 2012 Aston Martin GT3-spec to ever grace pavement. There were several stages of awesomeness added to the GT12, and the first was getting its weight down to a svelte 1,535 kg (3,384 pounds) from its standard weight of 1,665 kg (3,670 pounds).
