  • Team Abu Dhabi by tolimit driver Sean Edwards finished 4th overall, 3rd in Supercup, 3rd in Carrera Cup and now leads both championships.
    The race was so wet and it being his first time at this track in these conditions the race was a tough one!
    The car is a standard 2011 997 GT3 Cup with no abs.

    I have to say, it takes some massive balls to drive that fast in The Ring in the rain and with another car spitting all that water on your windshield!!!!
    Great driving, best of luck!

    True master of his craft .You can see the feel he has for the car, you cant teach that you either got it or you don't.
    A real loss to motorsport just glad we have all the in car footage of Sean.

    Brilliant drive. Seriously. Great car control, terrific braking, excellent rolling momentum, and really cool to watch the driver search for grip. On top of all of that, huge balls. That place is scary enough in the dry let alone the wet. Thanks for posting.

    @rabbitsox 12 лет назад

    Sequential shifter married to a dog clutch. You select gears sequentially, with no way to directly access a gear (like a traditional H-pattern). Upshifting without using the clutch is can be done with or without lifting the throttle, depending on the transmission. Downshifting, you need to blip the throttles to keep the engine revs at the right rpm to maximize braking efficiency and keep stress on the engine. You heel-toe the brake/throttle and engage the clutch.

    Racecars have an different Steering Transmission, in Streetcars you can turn the Wheel 2,5 times.
    In Racecars only 0,5 times.
    So 180 degree is the maximmum.

    A cloud of water is a cloud of water in 360p, 720p or real life. Visibility is zero. This is skill.

    @MitsubishiEvo8fqr750 12 лет назад

    Quick question, how do Porsche race teams counters the weight difference as the fuel tank in the front empties? Do they re position the tank to the middle or just hope it doesn't effect the car?

    Jeez, Sean bought along the right pair of testicles for that event!!
    Nowt like driving a 550odd horsepower, rear drive - read engine, no ALB car with the 911 turbo's skittish rep at 200mph in the lashing rain with zero visibility.
    On one of the most challenging race tracks on the planet.
    I doff my hat to your knackersson - and may they rest in peace in that special place up there with all the other gonad-normous race drivers who lost their lives driving like whippets with bums full of chilli powder.
    RIP
