WRR First Laps: Vintage Porsche GT3 Cup vs. IMSA Tube Frame GT Cars

This week we're onboard with Team Winding Road Racing driver Tom Martin III in the team’s 2006 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car for the Group 10 / Modern GT feature race in The HAWK International Challenge at Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin on July 19th, 2015. This is multi-class vintage racing, so you'll see the Team Winding Road Porsche Cup car (450 hp on 2700 lb) running with IMSA GT cars, including Patrick Bean's Chevy Monza (DeKon tube frame Monzas were IMSA Camel GT champs in '76 and '77 with 650 hp on 2400 lb.) and Theo Bean's IMSA GTS Nissan 300ZX (Clayton Cunningham tube frame 300ZXs won Daytona and Sebring in 1994 with 750 hp on 2650 lb). As you'll see in the clip, Road America is an interesting track when you’re faster in the corners and slower on the straights.

[@bernardocruz3664]

i dont think they are boring, i love it... that engine sound its great.

[@JMartinni]

Don't watch it if it doesn't interest you. It's interesting for others.

[@harrisanwar85]

yeah but these types of videos are EVERYWHERE pov test drives are not as common as these are, well maybe there are some but they don't have as high quality as this channel

[@bernardocruz3664]

i think its quite the opposite man, you see pov test drives everywhere and real racing not as much

[@unstopableguy1]

you destroyed them in the corners but to bad you didn't have enough power

[@vishnuhalikere2151]

[@zako9667]

This car is a bit slow... Other guys just pulled away

[@blacke347]

Since when is 450hp in a gutted Porsche slow?

[@zako9667]

+eude / monic since he did horrible in this race

[@blacke347]

But I suppose the difference is that while he's on a track racing a 450hp Porsche probably having the time of his life you're sitting at your computer complaining about it on the internet. Lmao.

[@andresperez7212]

+Zako ignore this ignorant, the Porsche seems slow because this is a multi-class race so not all cars are equal.

[@zako9667]

+Andres Perez thank you for explaining lol... That's all I wanted to know
