It's a hot lap around the Nordschleife in an E60 M5 driven by one of Sabine Schmitz, Hans Stuck, or Claudia Hurtgen.

Tickets went on sale at 10am CET (central european time) on Dec. 1; about 4am EST. I purchased my ticket at about 5am EST and I believe they sold out the 2007 season the following week.

They only posted the 2007 schedule at the beginning of March, so even though you had a ticket, you couldn't actually book the ride until recently.
