Default Tanner Foust Runs the Nurburgring in a Raptor
Why? Mainly because it's cool, and because Tanner Foust had some extra time from a shoot in Germany. I mean come on. The nurburging is the stomping ground for the worlds most hoity-toity, high strung, sports cars.

Seeing the Raptor out there hitting curbs and peeling out of corners must've been a shock.

I wonder what his times were? I ran a smoking hot 14:02 in my Audi A4 rental there two years ago. By far the slowest thing on the track...

Sweet, I wonder if Tanner was wishing for a shorter tire and tread more suitable to the track?

Kind of frightening to see that thing roll/tip into the corners on that off-road suspension.
