  • Today i'm preparing for the Nurburgring in my manual Porsche 991 GT3! It's been a while since i've driven a manual car on a track and my upcoming trip to the Nurburgring will be the first time taking my own car on the infamous circuit - so today is all about getting ready for it!

    You manual Porsche videos are amazing, the gearbox video sounds brilliant, can't wait to see it on the Ring!

    Could you put a camera in the footwell when your on track, think I’d be a sick shot

      No criticism of your driving in any way shape or form but I gather on this occasion there would be nothing to see as electronically rev matched?

    • @Car10121-s

      Would like to see this too, although no camera in the footwell on the ring and James claimed he was not using the auto blip. But in this video I never see his right leg moving like I have in other peoples videos to blip the throttle, unless he does it in his own unique way. I for sure can’t blip the throttle without my whole leg moving. Also you can hear James’s Rev matching is very very good and very very consistent, I’m not denying he can’t do it, I guess he’s just very bloody good at it.

    I drive a little Fiesta ST on track. I am almost always the slowest car on track. But the thing is track days are not races. I am still having just as much fun and testing my skills as everyone else.
    I spent years making excuses for not going on track and i want to reach out to else that is doing the same. Take your car, make sure its in good working order and get out there! Seriously, do it now, no more excuses, no more fear of being a beginner, just get out there!

  • @ArKritz84

    You have to commend whoever specced that 285.220,00 € base price GT2 RS with a 3570 € paint job, a 3034,50 € interior upgrade, the 17.850 € Weissach-package, probably numerous other optional extras like the 273,70 € colored seat belts, but NOT the 119 € 90l fuel tank upgrade. Job well done!

    Train and learn the track on a simulator. Assetto Corsa, iRacing, have a laser scanned version of the Nordschleife.
    Trust me, you will not regret it. I went on the Nordschelife for the first time 2 years ago after many laps done on simulators... Just after two corners I felt at "home".
    If you're interested I can share the video I recorded that time.

    Oh how I wish I lived near bigger tracks. My closest one is still an hour away, and only 1.3 miles, with 8 turns. Typically, just over a minute to lap it, maxing out just under 200kmh at the end of the straight. I need to come to the UK/Europe..
