    Proves how well developed and sorted the 944 was. Back in the 80's it was often scoffed at and not even considered a "real Porsche" by the 911 die-hards. "Too civilized", "too technical" and "too modest" were common complaints. Nonsense, the car was just ahead of its time. Took way into the mid 1990's until other manufacturers produced practical supercars with accessible performance for their owners.
    This middle-aged bird (the car) still has got it. Merely a few seconds slower than V12 engined supercars in 2006 on the same track.

      like zombie head said, the 944 is a much better handling car and could of easily surpassed the 911 of the time around a corner. i was informed by a retired Porsche engineer a few years ago that they created a concept called the 944gt that had a wider engine bay and an upgraded suspention to handle the weight of a modified porsche 928 v8 engine, it never hit production because it out performed the 911 in every way by a long shot.

    I developed and campaigned a 944T in the SCCA for 7 seasons, running ITE, SPM and PCA2. The car always got me on the podium in ITE, and because of its reliability, also got me there in the other classes as well. 375 HP at 16lbs off boost, adjustable on the fly to 21 lbs. 2700 pound car, and by far the most neutral and forgiving handling of any car I owned or drove at the track. Nice drive of the 'Ring!

No factory support, and the Toyo 888's are not the best, plus a few corners I saw you go into under/over steer, but that is more of a heal and toe technique and since I have not driven those cars, I don't know if the pedals are set up for optimal use of that. Plus being a 5 speed and no PDK. That is truly a fantastic time. Very well done.

    People seem to forget that the 944 platform was tested at the crucible of Lemans after it's mundane beginnings. A properly tuned 944 is a track weapon.
    Think about this, out of a gigantic field of cars the 924 GTS race cars finished 12th overall at Lemans, not in their class, but overall against GT1, GT2, GT3, LMP, Prototypes! Astonishing.
    The 944 platform is criminally underated and that's now changing with their value beginning to rocket for well kept examples. About time!

      @@bagnatofurniture388 you just HAVE to rev it out. They have nothing below 4k RPM. Keep it above 4 and she's happy.

    Nice "attack" and driving style. :-)
    Good lap time for so few laps in real car.

    This is the fastest Ive ever seen a 944 go...NOT BAD! But just looking at the handling of this car states you gotta be on your toes with it because of that short wheelbase....it loves to rotate very quickly....expert skill you got there.

      That guy can drive,that's for sure albeit I assure you about the rear suspension in the 944 series
      making you feel like running on rails compared
      to the SC and Carrera 3200. I owned both 944/944T and SC3000/Carrera 3200 and the main difference was the 944 forgiving your driving mistakes throughout curves and entering curves at speed under braking.
      Both 944/911 were outstanding daydrivers and
      the 944T actually was pretty much underrated yet performing as like as a 3200 offering a more comfortable and safe ride.

      velocity, braking points, corner entry --> gran turismo is very close to reality. But driving a fast lap on playstation is not that easy, because the street is very narrow and it is difficult to stay on the track.

    I didnt know they made driving/racing gloves that looked like oven mitts. :D I'll admit to being jealous of your car and the drive tho! Beautiful!
