We are only days away now from the 2012 edition of the famed Nürburgring 24 Hours endurance race, which will take place at the Nürburgring-Nordschleife circuit in Germany this weekend.

Among the many cars that will compete in the race is the new Toyota GT86, also known as the Toyota 86 in Japan and Scion FR-S in North America.

To put us in the mood for the upcoming battle, Toyota’s Motorsports division published this video shot from an onboard camera of one of the GT86 racecars while testing on the Nürburgring circuit. You can watch it in the video after the jump.
