24 HOURS IN 19500 FRAMES from tim hahne on Vimeo.

Deep within the dense, tree lined forest of the Eifel mountains, surrounding a medieval castle in the small town of Nürburg, Germany, lies the world famous race track known as Nürburgring. Considered by many to be the most difficult, most demanding purpose built racetrack in the world, Nürburgring was nicknamed “The Green Hell” by legendary Formula 1 driver Jackie Stewart.

Just a few weeks ago, several automotive media outlets from the United States were invited on a VIP media trip by a suspension company and a tire company to cover the ADAC 24h Rennen Nürburgring, better known outside of Germany as the Nürburgring 24H race. I’ve been checking many different websites to see what type of event coverage these media outlets produced from the trip, but none have impressed me like this video – 24 Hours in 19500 Frames by videographer Tim Hahne.

Tim has successfully captured the feeling and the spirit of Nürburgring 24H race with the lens of his Canon 5DMark2 digital SLR. Big respect goes out to Tim for his efforts on this video, and big thanks to our resident EuroMaven Tamer Omran for sending me this link!

I’m going to turn up the sound on my headphones, and watch it in full screen mode on my 30″ Apple cinema screen once again… Enjoy!

About Post Author
I am... a nonstop buyer of Japanese car magazines even though I can't read them, a long-time collector of rare steering wheels, horn buttons, deep offset wheels, fresh Kangols, hip hop mixtapes, and vintage Japanese automobilia. My background is in shooting advertisements and editorial photos for print magazines, as well as working with major motion picture studios in Hollywood. I love cars. I have a huge collection of vintage Toyota memorabilia and rare parts to go with all the cars in my collection. My life revolves around photography, cars and car culture. At the same time, I grew up around the culture of hip hop music, with a reverence for graffiti art and underground mixtapes. I've been involved with the emerging drifting scene in the USA since the late 1990s (as a fan), and began working with print magazines all over the world as a photographer in 2003. I eventually decided to travel all over the world to document drifting as it evolved from Japanese subculture to pop culture and authored my first hardcover book, entitled "Drifting: Sideways from Japan to America," in 2006 - the first book ever produced on the topic of drifting. One year later, I was contracted to create the first mass-produced and internationally distributed calendar on the same topic (2008 release). These projects were just a labor of love for me, so I never expected to randomly see my book or calendar on bookshelves and coffee tables in other countries. These projects certainly opened a lot of new doors though, like being contracted to help launch car culture editorial outlets for big corporations, like Speedhunters for EA Games' Need for Speed franchise, Driving Line for Nitto Tire, and NBC Universal's Fast & Furious franchise. Our website and brand has come a long way since it first started in 2009. Since then, we have launched events like 86FEST, V8BUILDS, and MotorMassive. Thank you to everyone who has supported us in our mission to share our website and our authentic passion for the automotive scene! -Antonio Alvendia • www.ANTONIOSURESHOT.com • @AntonioSureshot on Instagram

    So I had my sound off, and I turned it up when this video loaded. I didn’t realize it, but my music player was on in the background, and had somehow found its way to the following epic piece of greatness:

    Tom Petty – “Runnin’ Down a Dream”

    I have to say, its an awesome soundtrack to this video!
