Thousands and thousands of people have run the Nürburgring on two wheels over the decades. The catch is that all those two wheel laps were done on motorcycles. A dude from China turned up at the famed Green Hell in a slightly modified Mini Cooper, and with some help from staff at the track he did the entire 12.9-mile circuit on two wheels.
Driver Yue Han’s lap was streamed live on Facebook. Surprisingly the entire thing went off without a hitch, though it wasn’t exactly fast at around 45 minutes. If you’ve got the patience, you can check out the entire lap in the video below:
Modifications to the Mini included a welded front differential, solid rubber front tire, and a roll cage. A ramp was used to get the car onto two wheels at the start.
Bo and Luke Duke must be very proud right about now.
