Heel and toe, double clutch downshifts, oversteer every corner and turn, in an old 911, this man has the biggest balls of all mankind.
Watch Leh Keen at le mans.
Go watch old videos of Isle of Man super bikes then tell me about big balls.
That pass on the Lotus Cortina or whatever at 2:46 was insane!
I come back to this video once a year or so. Just beautiful skill.
Holy crap I thought these old timer races were just for fun. That guy was driving like he was in a real GP
William Trowbridge historic racing is often really competitive
Owning an early 911, I can relate to how he has to play the wheel so much. Even in normal driving at highway speeds on twisty roads, you constantly have to steer the car to place it correctly, and keep it pointing the right way.
The driver here appears to be a master of it, at any speed!
Oversteering on Eau Rouge, I would shit my pants immediately .
And in Blanchimont too.
I did.Right on my comfy chair.
Xavier Capela lol either that or have some sort of a enlightening experience!!
I've built a lot of early Production Porsche engines , that is nothing that ever came in a 1960's Porsche.
Sounds like an early 70's RSR or maybe a SC engine that's been stepped on .
just a very well built 2.0 with open stack carbs, For somebody who has built a lot of them , you sure don't know the sound to well.
This video gives the dictionary definition meaning of: "like a boss"!
The best part comes at 1:53 when he keeps turning right on a left-hand turn. Or the massive opposite lock on 2:48. Man... He's got this.
Dude kept the throttle and just steered through it what balls he has. Never let off to catch himself
The driver is a friend of mine 'Pascal Pandelaar' from the Netherlands, not Roman Caresani...he's only the owner of the car. Pascal is not racing for his profession, but he should be! The car is preparated by DUEL MOTORSPORT by Ed Poland, he's a magician in building classic racecars!
Like a boss! Is he driving on the grass to pass cars?
🧢🧢🧢🧢
@@tadcraig3162 No not fully, but those old 911's were always trying to find the nearest wall or tree to hug! Horrible cars to drive! EXCELLENT driving skills displayed here by the driver! 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
No words. The art of race driving. This man and the car are in one piece..
that's why I love porsches,in the hands of a skilled driver this car will beat yo ass,nimble,fast and squirrely,them germans know how to make sportscar,and sweet enough to go to the grocery store.
Drift through Eau Rouge... Wow...
Eau Rouge was great, but the pass on the Cortina wide open in 5th gear was one of the hairiest moves I've ever seen.... He's at full opposite lock on the steering and never lifts... balls of steel
Agreed...
mfc2257 if he lifts there he will lose it probably.
mfc2257 but... Its a 4 speed...
Bevan Dennill It would appear to be, however the gearbox in this car is in all likelihood an early production 901 dogleg 5speed with first gear being in the lower left. We are most likely watching him utilize gears 2-5 in this video.
I've driven spa in an E46 M3 and a porsche boxster, and I thought I was having fun!!!
That's proper on the limit driving, I can do that in my gti, but in a classic 911... Wow!
That's a lot of correction going around that cabin. Love it!
Does anyone else think this guy would make a good dancer ? Precision and car control that makes it look so easy. Excellent post thank you.
He passes everything in sight and all the comments are about how bad he is or about how badly the car is set up. How many of you have ever been on a race course?
+jockellis this guy is an awesome driver,to do this in a old 911 , very special !
didnt see one comment like this
Passing a Mini or 912 (i think) sure is an event!
Łukasz Dudek MINI OR A 912 !! HOW ABOUT THE FORD FALCON !!! bad ass 😄😄
jockellis I don't think he's a bad driver at all! Probably just an enthusiast driver though.
LIKE A BOSS!!
Gut vid!
LOOL
I can't get bored of watching this video. It's a so thin border line of speed and grip along with the crazy engine sound. I wish I can upload something similar from my private archive once in my life.
I could watch this guys driving all day!!! Never seen something look so natural to a driver!
Qu'il est agréable ces anciennes voitures à Spa , Porsche , Cortina , Jaguar E ,etc...merci pour la vidéo.
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the way that thing sounds and it looks so fun to drive!
This goed straight to my favorites.
btw, what raceseries was this and when?
His composure is probably the most impressive thing to me. Unreal... ZERO panicking & as smooth as can be.
Best Spa video EVER. And that probably includes the future too...
Absolutely love the steeringwheel work here. Looks very challenging. Congratulations on the driver.
Caresani driving in his comfort zone. Bravo, thanks for the lift!!!
Not granny shifting, double clutching like he should.
@Southern Fun Its a joke. In Fast and the Furious they say that the main character is "Granny shifting, not double clutching like he should" after he loses a race and almost crashes his car.
one thing i've never understood about double clutching is that you are doubling up your neutral drive. i'm not experienced in these old cars, and have really only taught myself. but you clutch to take out of gear, unclutch at stick in neutral, rev match, then clutch to put in your gear. i've always mis matched my clutch to throttle, so that i catch my throttle right as i'm letting off, just enough to rev, and downshift. its the quickest way to down shift, but it hurts clutches, and i don't really know how it would impact these older cars. i'm sure it'd ruin them. but i'm quick to say the least...either way, you never see someone dancing in their 911 around turns. it takes great skill.
I overcooked a turn in my 73S on day one, driving it home, went side ways at 130 kph and corrected it, powered out of it clean.
But I never did it on purpose and I did need fresh underpants that day.
This guy rocks.
The physics involved in this dance is astonishing!
Awesome balanced driving! Salute and respect to the very capable driver!
Gollee- bum, that man was having to fight the Porsche's tendency to oversteer wildly. But he was fast and smooth, a winning combo.
Serious skills on display!!! This guy is awesome!
I've raced a '67 911 at Silverstone and Snetterton and can attest to the 'always sideways' motion of the car as seen in Caresani's driving. Just a dab of brake and the rear steps out, but oh so easy to catch and steer thereafter on the throttle through the corners. Trick is to get the car to rotate into the corner but I ran out of skill before managing that! Wonderful cars to drive and eminently 'checkable'. Just try and forget the car's value when turning in!
Wow..passing the E type then Lotus cortina...what driving skills man!! Rockin
this driver shows us all how it's done properly. A good setup has lots of oversteer, and a little understeer. Wow this is beautiful indeed
You hit 10 with this one. I love classic cars on classic tracks. Thank You
Using every single bit of the track too. Nice control. Looks like he is having fun aswel. Top driver
I'm surprised at how often he gets into 1st gear. I'm amazed at how quickly he can shift that transmission-- never that fast in my SC. I'm sure he could teach me a thing or two.
Same here. Had an SC and had to be careful with that 915 box. Long throws that would grind if not paying attention/hasty, especially during a cold morning.
I don't think that was 1st gear. Remember that old 911s have "dog-leg" gearboxes, where first gear is left and down. That was probably second gear (middle up) you were seeing.
Amazing driving! looks like a fun racing car
Pure class throughout but the pass of the lotus cortina towards the end is insane!
I remember a ride in a 1974 Porsche 911 over 30yrs years ago with a friend who was a reasonable driver. he took me for a spin around the block as i had been pestering him since he brought it. I still grin thinking about it as he drove like this ace , but on the streets.
Great bit of driving.Made it look so easy,I would have been into the first barrier!
understeer? Ain´t nobody got time for that.
vivalaphill couse he was busy with oversteer XD
@@TheEryk03 ...and shifting body weight for no apparent reason! 👍
That's a thing of beauty there - the ballet of man and machine...
Insane to keep it on the road. Roman you know your Porsche.
great skills and shrewd driving manouvres when overtaking half on the green.
This guy knows what he is doing that is for sure.
And these old 911 were all abit tail happy.
I enjoyed watching it tremendeously.
Please post more similar ones.
Regards Harry
exactly the same as me on GT6 with the Lotus Elise 190... hahaha, a lot of fun! jokes apart he is rocking the 911, nailing all the curves and passing all the other pilots like if they were parked on the side of the street.... Really a great video, and what a sound! UAU, really awesome
Spa is a very fast course. I’ve driven many short wheelbase 911s over the years, they’re very good at short, twisty courses. The high speed stability was always tough. That’s why Porsche lengthened the wheelbase in ‘69. The guy piloting this run is a grand master with a 911.
This is what most young drivers just don't understand. Yes, a modern car may be faster. But MAN, are old cars a ball to drive! You steer with your feet and the car is rarely pointing the direction it's headed. Such fun! And this guy is a MASTER. Another great video is of the 1987 Ruf Porsche 911 Yellowbird at the Nurburgring. Art in motion...
Talk about tail happy! That takes serious skill just keeping it on the track, let alone going on a rampage like that!
fantastic highlighted by that move outside the e-type
Superb driving, and highly entertaining! Hoping to go here in March 2015 with a litte luck...
Mikey Mike did you go?
Sadly, not made it there as yet :-( Hoping to this year though...
Thats what they all say haha. I've been hoping to go to the nurburgring for the last two years haha
Perfect title for this video. Great driving.(drifting)
Leh keen is the driver, he knows how to handle a Porsche. You should look at his POV nordschleiffe 24h video in the rain on a pitch black track. Amazing!
2:47!!! Amazing courage and technique!!!
Well, this lap is f***ing hot ! Pure driving. Pure track. Pure sound.
Super exciting and fun to watch. God bless you 🏎
Great balance and the driver knows his car well.
In the past all quick drivers drove pretty much like that, because the power was not enough:)
Just a bit more speed in the corner and if the car is not stiff as a rock the tail is happy and easy to control.
Great on-board.
This makes me wanna drive a 911 right now.
I love how he's drift steering in 4th gear like it's nothing then at 1:04 he has to stop the mirror from vibrating...just gonna one hand drive at 100 mph because that noise is just too distracting
one of the best onboard driving i have ever seen!! absolute great driving!! thanks for uplouding!
this is one of the best car video out on youtube!
Drifting around Blanchimont - unbelievable!! From 2:30 onwards the commitment is both incredible and frightening!
Proper skill and proper driver 👌
When I watch auto racing on broadcast television, I think to myself, "That looks awesome. I'd like to do that. I bet I could do that with proper training." Then I see this in-car footage and I think, "There is no effing way I could do that. Holy crap."
Drifting on the raidillion..
Oh shit
Great skills.
Great driving. I used to try to drive my 911 like that but usually failed massively
This driver is mad!
Terrifying is more accurate... Props to the driver, he handled it like a boss!
that looks HUGE fun and more than a little scary!
impressive driving!
Very crazy! Impossible to sleep.
Its an early 901 gearbox, 5 spd, dogleg pattern so he's mainly in 2nd thru 5th gear. Porsche didnt build a 6 spd box in this period for these early 901 models.
You can tell the body is an early 911 model as it has an opening vent window on passenger side. Maybe a 65 to 68 model ? All these years were fitted with 901 model gearboxes which came in 4 or 5 speed.
Notice how corrections are made without a full lift from throttle, and some even involve applying more. This is done to maintain and manage weight transfer, which is a most critical skill when driving a rear engined car. This man's technique is how a classic 911 is driven for maximum performance. Drifting is required.
Three wide at Spa! A little bit risky I must say! But clearly skilled driver! Fun to watch!
This is NOT Roman, but Pascal Pandelaar driving in qualifying!!!
Great car control, but of course the tyres won't last the race this way. That is why he backed off a little bit in the race.
Hurrah! Double declutching! Love 2:49 :)
WORKING that wheel.
Great video!!!
That was monumentally impressive. That car was trying to break out on the entrance to a corner judging by the number of times the driver was applying opposite lock before the apex. Could there have been too much front brake bias?
incredibly talented driver
Awesome driving, would love to see it from the outside
Mad skills and balls of an elephant. great driving.
Not to good for the rear tires though.
I seen some driving in my time. But damn this guy is a boss behind the wheel of a 911 and 2:36...Did he just pass a car?..That was passing car? I said damn..
This guy is just passing everyone. Mad skills!
Lovely how efficient an overhanging rear weight can be. Better traction, better braking and of course not as good in making perfect smooth arcs or each corner, but this video illustrates it very well. The car is not particularly badly set up but it does not really mater.
Just imagine if the current F1 cars of today had a rear engine configuration. Now that would be funny.
That's one hell of a driver! Wow!
Well Brilliant Driving!!! Love Old Cars And Grip Lvl 😍 AweSome
Excellent!! Un sacré coup de volant, chapeau!!
Very nice video and an expert for driver! Is it an "original/stock" Porsche 911 2.0Lfrom 65' (but of course with higher engine effect than 130 hp)?
Double-clutching and heel and toeing or pulling a paddle?
amazing car control!!! WOW!!!
Computer game stuff - but with real cars and real lives. Magnificent driving Sir.
...and a spot of off-roading by the 'E-type' looking car, too. Does that mean welded-up differential? Not that I would know, maybe just the massive weight over the rear kept the traction good at that point.
Nice control of his inputs, Rally style activated.
were you on winter tyres??? :D
good driver control and most importantly the car is set-up for this circuit. Did not see anything comparable out there that he was passing...but great vid non the less!!
Actually, he also passed a Porsche 904 and two other early 911s toward the end of the vid. Good stuff.
That is insane car control. Damn.
Wonderful driving skills
Now THAT'S how you drive an old 911 :D
NO, that's how you stay alive in an old 911! 🤣🤣🤣
