1. A vision takes formNow viewing2009-05-0445mTim Schrick, D MOTOR-presenter, race driver and car nutty test pilot has a vision: he wants to compete in the toughest endurance race in the world, the legendary 24-Hours Nürburgring on the Nordschleife – with a car he developed himself. His goal is to place in the Top 10. The race car will be based on a normal production car, an Aston martin V8 Vantage, bought at a second-rate used car dealer. This is to be turned into a competitive race car. An undertaking that normally requires years. Tim wants to turn his dream into reality in a mere nine months. He needs a strong team for this: Unkel Funny provides mental support and technical know-how.

His second helper is Jörg van Ommen. The former DTM-driver and the teams second driver brings his vast motorsport experience to the team. He knows what it means to build a race car in such a short time frame and the problems this involves. Darius Baghi is a longtime friend of Tim and his engine builder.

2. The fitness trap2009-05-1145mWork on Tim's car is progressing. With the help of Darius, a longtime friend and engine builder, Tim removes the engine and transmission from the secondhand Aston Martin V8 Vantage. These stock components won't be found on the final race car. Darius created a 3D-model of the car to ensure a millimeter-perfect fit later on. Uncle Funny is worried about Tim's fitness. He insists that Tim completes a cardiac stress test. The test reveals that Funny has a point. Tim's physical condition is worrying. He has to get in shape or there's no way he will be able to withstand the 2-hour stints in the cockpit. Uncle Funny gets Jörg van Ommen on board to whip Tim back into shape. The former DTM driver will be the second driver for the team and take care of Tim's fitness problem.

3. Desperately Seeking Sponsor2009-05-1845mRace drivers feel most comfortable on the track. Tim Schrick and Uncle Funny compete in a thrilling classic car race on the Nürburgring Grand Prix Circuit with 2 identical BMW 700. A moving moment for Tim, as his father raced the exact same car himself in the past. Uncle Funny still has a few tricks up his sleeve Tim hasn't learned. Uncle Funny is worried about Tim's schedule. There's only a few months left to the start of the 24-hours race. The car is completely disassembled, the parts are are scattered to the four winds and money is running low. How can the team work on the crucial suspension tuning for the Nürburgring, without a driveable car? Tim has to get creative, suited up and full of hope he visits a potential sponsor and simply buys a second Aston Martin – accident damaged. This junker is to be the experimental vehicle for suspension tuning and testing.
4. The setback2009-05-2545mTeam Schrick is dogged by bad luck. The second Aston Martin Tim bought especially for suspension testing, still isn't working right. The engine doesn't output its full power. The tight schedule allows the team only a single opportunity to test the suspension on the Zolder race track in Belgium. As if that wasn't enough, race management announces rule changes for the 24-hours race, with immediate impact on engine development. The power of big displacement race cars will be limited. A shock for Team Schrick. All plans for the engine build are void. The team has to start engine development and construction from scratch. While engine builder Darious is frenetically working on the engine, Jörg and Tim decide to refresh their race experience. Both haven't driven in a 24-hours race in years. They fly to Dubai to compete in a 24-hours race. Everything goes wrong: The car doesn't work and on top of that Jörg and Tim get sick.
5. Premiere on asphalt2009-06-0145mTime is running out. Only two and a half weeks remain for Team Schrick to prepare the race car for a special test run on the Nordschleife of the Nürburgring.

The problem: Currently the engine is still in countless parts in the shop of engine expert Darius Baghi. If that wasn't enough: Darius hasn't finished work on all the parts. Two and a half weeks to assemble the complete engine, install it in Tim's race car, complete the function tests at the official roll-out and fine tune the settings.
