There is no way this channel has so little views while providing content at this level. This is a genuinely criminal action by the algorithm.

Criminally underrated channel

Flow state, absolutely insane what man and machine did there.

That Benz is flying 🛩️

That Sound of the V8 Biturbo is simply amazing 🤩

👍

Absolutely brilliant video. The noise is invigorating. This vid really got under my skin. Just made me want to be in the car. Fantastic 👍🇦🇺

Lovely presentation.

Stunning machine and great video. Such an underrated channel!

That must have been Senna's view more or less on his first F1 test at Donington '83 with the FW08C!

Oh to be independently wealthy...

It looks beautiful under that light

Wonderful video but it would be nice for the facts in the script to have been checked a tiny bit. Michele won Le Mans with Joest Racing's Porsche WSC-95 in 1997, and then competed for Audi at Le Mans between 1999 and 2000, coming 3rd in the latter.

a testament to torque over rpm 😂

2sec!? Faster than the previous record??? Faaaaaak

Hi! Wonderful vid! Can i ask about the current setup on this beast?

What a machine! The acceleration is just brutal and that noise, never, ever get bored of listening to it. One of the best era’s for racing in my opinion.

Think I saw this car race at Monterey in August. One of the Taylor boys drove it to a win. Talked to the mechanics in the garage after who told my son that was indeed gold in the engine bay!

I never saw the C9 race in anger but I did see the C11 a couple of times. For my money it's the best sounding V8 ever, it looks good and it went pretty well too! For those of us who experienced it, Group C was very special.

I recall a classic Group C meet at Donington some years ago when Bob Berridge in one of these lapped the field up to 2nd place with sub one minute lap times! I see that there will be a Group C race at the Silverstone Classic next year which is great because they have not appeared over here for quite a few years!

Good stuff.What a nice looking car & Donington suits it(& other F1's of the time) perfectly. I have seen a few F1 historic races here & they are always the highlight of the programme!

That sound it looks like Acura GTP in this year

Thank you for a thoroughly enjoyable dissertation. In the day the Williams team was a juggernaut David against the Goliaths. Keke was a legend. it was like 5am in the morning in Australia when he clinched the world championship at Caesars palace, i'll never forget that. There was a time when Williams had the best race/win ratio. Vale Frank

The air speeds up through the narrowest part of the sidepods, not where it expands further back. This car couldn't have sliding skirts as they had been banned and the 1982 cars relied on very stiff suspension to maintain a constant ride height with the fixed skirts just contacting the ground. Ground effect cars from that period only work properly when the skirts are sealing the side pods, so I'm sure if the car was run in it's proper configuration you'd feel even more downforce. Without proper skirts air is sucked in from the sides. As you touched on early in the video, the reason the car is so short and quite tall is to accommodate the extra length of the car in its original intended form of six wheels (i.e. a shorter, taller fuel tank). The six wheel format had three aims: one to reduce the drag of the large rear wheels; two to have four wheel drive and three to extend the ground effect tunnels. Such a shame it didn't compete for a season in six-wheeler form. I was at Brands Hatch in 82 when Keke stuck the car on pole but the car refused to fire up on the formation lap and Keke had to start from the back. His drive through the field was spectacular until it came to an end. One other thing you could do with the six wheeler is run front and middle axles with rain tyres in wet conditions with a set of slicks on the back axle running on dry tarmac cleared of water by the front four wheels and adding to the grip levels. Great fan of Keke, but this was a season when he lucked into the championship. Good for him, but really Villeneuve, Pironi or Prost ought to have been champion that year. I also wondered what Alan Jones would have done in this car because he was mighty in 1981, if he'd carried on in the same vein, he too may well have earned a second title. I'm sure the fact that the cars had to run with a very stiff suspension set up was a contributory factor in both Gilles and Didier being launched high into the air during their accidents, together with the large under floor area. Back to FW08: also one of my favourite cars, I love that era, although I'm not sure that they were that pleasant to drive.

I listen to this when I’m sad. It automatically refreshes my spirits. It’s a beautiful symphony of a vehicle.

It seems to have been setup nicely and possibly not that high boost pressure. Perserve the engine, for good reason. Cameras and audio has luckily come a long way since the early 90's. Onboard shots from then was mostly vibration noise and commentary. Has a nice deep rumble inside.. gorgeous machine Edit* Guess I'm just a bit envious.. never heard the car in real life, but seen all 3 configurations with the Mercedes engine, at shows, races or museums. Would love to experience Le Mans classic at so.e point

You need to do more videos mate, everything you drive. Live your passion. When you do a video, it’s the best there is.

Did it ever race there and how did your lap times compare? That was awesome mate!

Definitely one of my favorite race cars of all times! What a blast to drive - you are living my dream!

And that's not even the quicker C11 version either...

Always a lively debate in terms of best sounding, but this is the one for me.

Great video. These cars look like such a joy to drive. I wonder how it compares to a 997 Cup. Same box?

It would be perfect if they set the car up for left foot braking.

Saw this car ar Mosport back in 2013. Some other great cars the too like Muscle Milk HPD and GTE 458

It’s sad for all those 992, 964, 993, Singer, Tuthill, RWB etc owners. After just one drive in a basic no nannies raw 996 you realize you just have driven the best 911 ever produced

Auto leggendaria

Would do with a Judd V10.

My favourite race car of all times properly driven. Thank you for sharing this!

The #50 Freisinger Porsche 996 GT3 RS (N-GT) won the 2003 24 hours of Spa Francorchamps overall, leaving the GTs behind. The #72 Seikel 996 GT3 RS finished 3rd overall.

little f1 car 🥺

This is an impressive BTCC Old Girl. Sadly underappreciated in my locale. Cheers!

How sad, that India owns Jaguar/Land Rover, and makes them in Slovakia. The wealthy Brits care ONLY about money.

It goes through the Gears in such a graceful way, and before you know it it's like "wait woah!" we're going scary fast! That's how I see it that is. Hehe, so cool, thanks for sharing, love it.

Les jupes ne touchent pas le sol. Pourquoi??? De plus les gommes (Avon) AVD et ARD étaient usagées.

Gotta love the 996!... even teh base 911 is such a fun car to drive.

Nice car, but the Nissan GTP Turbo would whoop it like a red headed step child 😂.

Glorious

I can’t imagine taking such a fast car around a circuit like donnington….
