  • Porsche factory racing driver and all around American bad ass Patrick Long straps into a glorious 1967 Porsche 911S vintage racer and uses every single one of the 8100 rpms at his disposal to chase much faster cars at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca during the 2014 Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion.
    Take a spin with Long in The RACER Channel's newest visor cam video and watch the master at work as he plays 'catch the slide' with the 911S.

    I sincerely thank you folks for using external microphone to record audio for your videos.
    This is very soothing =)

    Great to see where the eyes are going...and comforting to see that even the best professionals have an occasional "moment"!!

    Awesome video. I think we're so spoiled by today's 911s, it takes real balls to drive one of these.

    That is real drifting, with a purpose. Patrick Long giving a masterclass in how to drive a 911

    Nice to see HD video of the more-or-less 911 I started with nearly 35 years ago. (Only wish we could go into the WABAC machine and drive the old, non-neutered configuration.)

    I had a 68S way back when and it was tons of fun to drive at the limit. The front end would get light at high speed and start to wander around a bit but the car always felt solid. The factory fix was a chin spoiler and a fair amount of lead up front. I remember a long race with a 2.4T that was faster with the higher torque engine but it was a newer car and thus not in the pre-67 racing category. The 2 liter wasn't a didn't get off the line very fast but it would sure wind up. A racing clutch disk didn't last long but was easy to replace.

    Finally a someone who realizes the importance of audio quality in good incar recording.
    This is the most excellent thing on the internet.
    May I dare ask how much did the audio equipment cost what this was recorded with?

    Steering more with his right foot than with the steering wheel. Great stuff.
    EDIT: Actually, by the third lap it looks as though the back is sticking bet... oh, he just went off lol.
    OK, just shut up and watch. :)

    With as much as he's sawing at the wheel that has to be one nasty handling automobile!

      I think it's just his style, maybe he's constantly checking the grip or it's just a habit. It does not seem to be slowing him down too much, though.

    Was the GoPro hindering your vision? I saw it resting on the top of your helmet visor and thought it would be a good try for a future track day.

    Direct connection between the butt and steering input. Guess need to add throttle in the equation. Fun to watch. See you in turn 5 Sat and Sun. T5 Flag.
