There's nothing new about fire-spitting exhaust. Heck, the massive displacement engines built one century ago were even more fire-friendly than today's supercars/hypercars. However, when you get to meet one of these new age... external combustion machines on the Nurburgring, expect to feel its full heat.
This is precisely what happens in the video below, which shows a McLaren P1 spitting flames while lapping the Green Hell. While such a site can generate enough giggles on its own, we have something that's even better, as the Big Mac is filmed from inside a Ring Wolf's car.

As we explained on previous occasions of this kind, any track out there has its wolfs - guys or gals who drive modest output cars, but know how to exploit each and every hp by flying from one vibrator to another with unbelievable precision.

And when you have uber-level Ring knowledge and a 340 hp Seat Leon Cupra DSG using a track tune, you'll be able to keep up with with a member of the HHHT (Holy Hybrid Hypercar Trinity).

So, how does such a Green Hell lap feel from inside the hot hatch? Well, the best possible explanation comes from the driver of the SEAT, so let's hear the man out: "I met my favorite Hypercar on track .. the amazing McLaren P1 - What ab awesome car! Look at those Flames while accelerating! 916 HP made me feel like standing. That Car is just BOSS - after he wanted to let me pass, i could watch a crazy fast Biker on his Yamaha R6 [yep, this is a massive spoiler],"

In case you're planning to join the fun, you'd better speed up your quest

And speaking of Touristenfahrten (Tourist Days) events, if you're planning to attend one of them, you should probably hurry. That's because the 2016 season is scheduled to end in mid-November.
