911 GT2 RS world record at the Nürburgring

Wow man, those straight s disappear pretty fast at 300 kph

 

[crgildart]

There is no substitute..

That's crazy smooth, almost boring! I prefer the excitement and glorious soundtrack of the Zonda R lap.

 

[François Pugh]

Love the graphics, and the driving. How much is the toll to have the track to yourself?

SNIT that is FAST!

The g meter was fascinating to watch.

You had me at ‘porsche’

 

[Bill Talbot]

And no disrespect to the Porsche folks but this lap has some pretty good sounds too...

Great driver. Very smooth and off and on full brake/throttle so quickly.

6:47 is no joke....isn’t that faster than Hunt’s F1 lap by like 10s?

Edit: checked and it is just over 10s faster than Lauda’s F1 record time. Of course they no longer race there (to the best of my knowledge)....bust still amazing for a PRODUCTION car.

I hope Porsche brings the 919 there during this summer's tour. They just broke the outright lap record at Spa with it.

This should be interesting!
What lap time do they need to break?!

I would say sub 6:45 according to Nürburgring Lap times.

 

[Bill Talbot]

Sub 6:57 would at least get them fastest Porsche ever there... now 5 years old.

It's something like 25 or 30 dollars a lap. But you don't get it to yourself, so faster vehicles may pass you or you may have to pass.

Just saying..you can do local track days for $100-$200..I'd suggest a few local before you go Nurburgring..

But in Bill's video (post #9), the Subaru has the track to itself. Hence my question.

They arrange exclusive visits I'm sure. You can also rent the whole track I imagine. You can rent Mosport for $6500 for the day if you like. All to yourself.

Sigh. It sure must be fun to be rich.
