Juul only got 133 points.. :-) The Tractives are awesome at the ring, especially with the changing weather conditions we had.

@@factorylooks9430 Would love to hear your feedback on the new format; are you perhaps coming to Zandvoort on the 28th?

I think the section training is what used to set Scuderia Hanseat apart. The follow-me allows for a lot more driving time though, but I think they need to tweak the format to be able to give more individual feedback, as that's what I felt was lacking. Apart from learning about a few more surface changes, braking points and shifted apexes, I didn't feel like I learned much for a 3 day training. So I have no idea how I would have been able to improve my score. I'm currently not planning to do the June training at Zandvoort, waiting for the next date to be released.

I have mixed feelings about it too, really liked the section by section training, and the immediate feedback from the track-side coaches. 3rd Zandvoort date is September 24th, so clashes with the Scuderia Hanseat fall event.

Just booked for the 28th, see you there 🙂

I'll need to do some more playing around with the settings on track, which was a bit difficult with the changing conditions on Sunday (drying track), and the previous AST set was not in bad shape, but I could lean on the tyres a lot more, which also means I now know what the next improvement will be :-)

It's the camera. I was using an iphone at the time, I've since upgraded to GoPro with better stabilisation. The Tractive suspension can be set from "softer than stock" to "kidney brace required" electronically from the cockpit.

Maybe you’ll lend him your car so he can do a hard lap. IMHO a great, sensible lap

I tend to keep that on on the Nordschleife, I'm not trying to break the lap record.

I think he means were you menstruating 😂 (it's PSM...)

After a few laps my palms can get pretty sweaty, and on a leather steering wheel this could mean I loose grip, so yes, mainly to ensure I don't loose control of the steering wheel and possibly the car.

@@factorylooks9430 wow thanks for the answer :) the video is great btw... the 996 is my favourite porsche

It's got a sump spacer and dual oil pickup. The valves open/close based on the centrifugal force during cornering.

@@factorylooks9430 who makes the dual oil pickup?

@@hitorihouse2612 It's made by Auto-Resto : auto-resto.nl/en/left/olie-pick-up-modificatie-voor-cirquit-gebruik/

Glad you like the videos. Quick list of the mods: - Uprated waterpump and low temp thermostat - GT3 front wheel-arch liners for additional flow through the radiators and towards the front brakes - sump spacer and dual oil pickups to keep oil pressure steady during cornering (unfortunately, during braking there is still a pressure drop) - Mobil 1 5W50 - 997 GT3 front and rear brake ducts - High temp brake fluid, braided hoses and Brembo Sport pads. That's pretty much it. I don't have any performance upgrades other than the suspension, as there is little gain to be had on these engines. I've gotten most I can get from this car, and I'm currently looking to upgrade to a GT3.

ou avant de partir oui... de toute façon le conducteur se promène ☺

Looks like a Yaris GR and an modified E92?

That was with Sport Cup 2 on the front, and PS2 on the rear. Sport Cup's were done after Brands Hatch though, so they've now been swapped for PS2's as well. I'll be back at the Ring end of Oct or the last open weekend in Nov.

Still very happy with them. It's comparable to the standard suspension in terms of comfort, as I went with similar spring rates. Being able to change the pitch and roll stiffness is the biggest advantage when doing different types of driving and in different conditions. Switching from no dive/pitch to a softer setting in a middle of a lap on the ring when it starts to pour down is a massive confidence booster. When doing driver trainings and I need to generate oversteer/understeer, I can dial it in to make it easier to induce. So yeah, big fan.

It's a 3.6 C2

Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 in the front, PS2 in the rear.

Yes, I've got dual pick-ups in the sump, as well as a sump spacer adding around 2 liters of additional oil capacity.

@@factorylooks9430 awesome, where did u get the dual sump pickup?

@@pedoloverfortheages It's an in-house development from a Porsche specialist in NL : auto-resto.nl/en/left/olie-pick-up-modificatie-voor-cirquit-gebruik/

why a mini ? you live in uk?

I’ve got a 02 996 manual the only negative is people sometimes go out there way to be rude the Porsche thing…,I’ve also got a eg civic that needs a paint the negatives with that is all the modern hatchbacks wanna show you how much faster they are. That’s why I’m in my 03 E class most the time nobody notices it.

@@christophercolumbus8944 It's a fun car!

I've had the cooling system modified to protect against the bore-scoring issue, as well as a dual oil-pickup to ensure constant oil pressure in the longer corners. The carter was increased by 2 liters at the same time to provide more oil volume for additional cooling. A mods video is still on my to-do list.

@@factorylooks9430 Which dual pickup did you go with? I've been considering doing the same to my 996.1.

@@henryatkinson1479 It's one developed by a specialist in the Netherlands : auto-resto.nl/en/left/olie-pick-up-modificatie-voor-cirquit-gebruik/

@@factorylooks9430 Thank you! Unfortunately Im in the US, so I cant have them do the work, but Ill reach out to them and see if I can purchase the parts.

Yes, these are the aluminum painted dials (factory option X71)

@@factorylooks9430 Cool! You're really on it in these vids. I have the same car and cant wait to take it on track!

@@factorylooks9430 Also, is that a GT3 short shifter?

@@margeinnovera Nope, regular shifter. I am lusting after a Numeric Shifter, but I can't really fault the standard gear change to make the jump just yet.

I've got it mounted at the top of the rear window, just a regular GoPro taped mount. They're small enough to no be obtrusive when I don't have GoPro mounted.

Hi Jonathan, these can be booked through the Porsche24 app, or through the Porsche dealer network. No NL events for 2022 have been published yet, but they should be available soon.

Thanks for the feedback. Any specific issues with my driving you'd like to point out?

Thanks! I upgraded to a Hero 8 and got the settings right

It's a Sony XAV-AX100, with a Euro Motorspeed DIN installation kit to match the interior as closely as possible.

@@factorylooks9430 I love the fact that there is a volume knob! Thank you!

Depending on your location, it's probably cheaper to rent one locally :-)

Thanks for the feedback, I've since upgraded to a better setup, although getting the lighting settings correct while still having some in-car visibility in the frame is challenging. I'm thinking about a multi-cam setup to negate that issue.

Wow, sheeesh, it isn't at all bad. Very watchable. Some ppl are so fussy. Inception was much worse, the Christopher Nolan film

@@spencer.kissack.the.author Look at the later videos he's posted, huge improvement. Given the views vs likes ratio, seems more people agree.

I run the Porsche recommended Mobile1. I do have a dual oil-pickup which keeps oil-pressure at 4-5 bar in high-G corners, and a bigger oil sump (2L additional) to ensure oil supply and temperature stay within spec on track.
