Historic NURBURGRING track up for sale

Historic NÜRBURGRING track up for sale, listed on CarProperty.com for $161 million

A buyer who wants to preserve the historic nature of this German motorsports track has been identified

October 10, 2013  Los Angeles, CA

Historic NÜRBURGRING track up for sale, listed on CarProperty.com for $161 million     When one of the most historic automobile tracks in the world filed for bankruptcy protection earlier this year, there was cause for concern. Who would buy the historic Nürburgring racetrack? What would the potential buyers do with the track and what would the ramifications of the sale be on the automotive community and the auto enthusiast community?

     Owners of the track, with quoted debts of more than $450 million, turned to CarProperty.com to help publicize the track’s sale, and find potential suitors. The listing at CarProperty.com has the legendary race circuit listed at a price of $161 million.

Historic NÜRBURGRING track up for sale, listed on CarProperty.com for $161 million     One such suitor rumored to be interested is the German automobile club, ADAC. According to several reliable sources, that group is planning on buying the historic Nürburgring racetrack. ADAC is the second-biggest auto club in the world. ADAC President Peter Meyer said, “The Nürburgring is without a doubt the birthplace of German motorsports. You can call it an automobile artifact. Therefore, we’ve started our effort to preserve this sporting facility for the future.”

     The entire Nürburgring facility is up for sale including the Nordschleife racetrack, Grand Prix track, amusement park and hotel. Business analysts estimate the value of the whole Nürburgring to be worth around $157 million. However, some are concerned that the Nürburgring will be sold off as a complete package or sold piece-by-piece.

     That could leave enthusiasts out if the hugely popular tourists drives, where anyone with any car can turn up and run the fabulous Nordschleife track, are deemed not part of the future financial plans.

     The German track also remains a mecca for automakers that test and develop high-performance cars on the Nordschleife. Some have even suggested that a group of manufacturers may get together to buy parts of the track.  That’s why it’s being listed on CarProperty.com, to attract the best possible buyer for this historic track. CarProperty’s strategic combination of luxury real estate and car collectors makes this listing ideal and well targeted.

1990 Ferrari F40 One of only 1315 produced Twin turbo V8 (478hp)
The F40 was to a large extent an evolution of the GTO in both form and concept. Though not designed for a particular racing series, it was a car that could be driven to a track and raced competitively at a professional level. It was a leap forward from the GTO in aerodynamic, structural, and performance terms. As befitted a car designed with such dynamic purpose, it had a somewhat spartan interior: the focus was unification of man and machine, combining for awesome acceleration, handling, speed, and presence.

The F40 was the last car introduced and commissioned by Enzo Ferrari himself. Its introduction and its name coincided with Ferrari’s 40th anniversary as an automobile constructor. The car was a celebration of the marque and the man seeking to safely provide owners with a race car for the street, embodying all the finest elements of 1987 automotive engineering.

The F40 employed a clutch and transaxle assembly identical to the GTO, but for a change in the gear ratios. This was a fully synchronised 5-speed manual system with hydraulically actuated single-plate clutch.

The transmission and differential were both housed in magnesium and aluminum alloy cases. To aid in optimal weight distribution, the transmission sat behind the differential, drive going through 180° from the crankshaft to the end of the driveshaft. Gear selection was accomplished by solid rods and forks to ensure positive engagemnt in all conditions. The F40 was also endowed with a transmission oil cooler. Optionally, the F40 could be ordered with a non-synchromesh unit.

The F40’s heart was its engine, a 2,936cc twin turbocharged, alloy 90° V8 putting out an astonishing 478bhp at 7000rpm (163bhp / liter) and 424 lb-ft of torque at 4500rpm.
The engine was substantially evolved from that in the GTO, its displacement, compression ratio, and maximum boost pressure all having been raised. The other basic statistics were the same: dual overhead cams controlling four valves per cylinder, a dry sump lubrication system, separate electronic ignition and fuel injection systems for each bank of cylinders and a Weber-Marelli engine control system.

The forged pistons were redesigned to improve combustion efficiency, and the IHI turbochargers were water-cooled although the Behr intercoolers remained air-to-air. The large tube-steel exhaust system was improved, most notably with a revised wastegate, and by the inclusion of catalytic converters. A horizontally mounted muffler exhausted gasses through three large tail pipes located centrally between the twin rear undertray diffusers.
