Thought I'd start this thread as I can imagine a few people needing some tips with this one.... they don't call it "the green hell" for nothing... This is one of the special events, and probably one of the best so far, I'm trying to get gold for all the intermediate races, got all so far apart from the full lap...
My best time so far is a 7.17 (this is after several hours of trying), the gold requires a 7.05 (which is actually 2 seconds quicker than the 4 previous gold level sectors combined).
I know a few people have done it, so please (please!!) feel free to share any tips/tricks etc to getting the elusive gold
My main issue is getting a clean lap whilst negotiating the other cars and trying to to put a wheel on the grass as this often means lap over
A guy off GTplanet has done it 7:00.553, watching the lap he could have had sub-7 mins if it weren't for a couple of small mistakes

You get some good rewards for completing the events, for all bronze you get the normal daytime nordschleife + a night/day & weather version. For all silvers you get the *spoiler*
and for all golds you get the *spoiler*
which is why I want the gold!
ETA: I'm using a wheel for those unaware, honestly don't think it's possible to get gold on a pad unless you're very talented.
ETA - Now done with a 7.04.004 thanks for all the tips. For anyone else struggling, here's videos of my full lap to & all 4 separate sectors
