The 2011 24 Hours of Nürburgring race came to a close under sunny skies today, with a Porsche 911 GT3 RSR taking the overall.

For Porsche and the Porsche Team Manthey, this marked the fifth victory at the traditional race in the last six years – likewise for Timo Bernhard.

With the Porsche 911 GT3 RSR - the world’s most successful GT race car of the last years - the Porsche quartet snatched the lead on Saturday at 23.25 hours and held on to it to the flag.

What followed were 16 hours and 35 minutes at the head of the field, 108 consistently fast and faultless laps under immense pressure on one of the toughest race tracks on earth – this speaks volumes about the reliability of the Porsche 911 GT3 RSR and for the skill of the pilots.

"European manufacturers took the top 20 spots. A Volkswagen Scirocco took the 26th spot and a Nissan GT-R finished in 36th.

= It's because Europeans and white people in general are naturally superior to everyone else.

Turbo, your inability to draw proper conclusions is equally only by your inability to see the larger picture.

The clown with his pants falling down,
Or the dance that's a dream of romance,
Or the scene where the villain is mean,
That's entertainment!...
