    I forgot my earphones today,so everyone on this train carriage now knows what a gt3 sounds like revving to 9000rpm

    The old brake pads look like they are historic artifacts from the stone age haha.

      Would be a cool man cave art if mounted in a glassed in shadow box. First racing memory.

    Love the fact that you daily drive and thrash it around a track. It's how they're meant to be driven. Respect.

    Perfect! THIS is the content I come here for. This is also why James is killing it compared to every other car channel. Sure beats the hell out of watching a bunch of children buy, modify, and flip their cars and calling that "content".

    Loving that "Smoking Tire" double camera positioning while driving. Keep it up.

    Best bedding in brake pad method is stomping at them at higher speeds, so a trackday is perfect

  • @matthewbarrow3727
    @matthewbarrow3727 4 года назад +1

    Track days are expensive due to the wear and tear on a car. I have a 2010 911 C4S Cab, and I get through a set of tires and brake pads every 500 track miles (at PCA DE events). ie. A set of brake pads and tires last me two weekends.

  • @fabrizio3711
    @fabrizio3711 4 года назад

    My daily daydream, a true escape from lockdown, great videos JWW and a big thumb up from a Porsche lover (from Italy). One day a GT3 will be in my garage I know...

    I love the crayon GT3 with a stick! ❤️. I love that it’s a track car and not a garage queen! I love hearing the flat 6 scream! And I really enjoy watching you push the car hard. Great job and congrats on being a real driver.

    Hi James, don't suppose you'll see this so long after posting but I for one love track content and this was awesome to see. I didn't even know you went to track days! And I didn't think my estimation of you could go any higher 😜
    It's awesome and very humbling seeing that whole process of working on the art of it all, on your race line, breaking timing, skill in passing others etc. and it would be great to show the kids that think they're The S**t because they got a good laptime on a video game...?
    But I also love the fact that you don't necessarily need to be rich to do it. At some tracks you can hire a super light weight race car or even buy one for under ten thousand quid. Or maybe that's just the US?
    Anyway, love this and please keep 'em coming!

  • @hpkntnw
    @hpkntnw 4 года назад

    It is amazing that Porsche can make that engine stay together for as long as they do. 9,000 rpm means that crankshaft is making 150 complete revolutions every second. Even at 6,000 that’s 100 revolutions every second!!

  • @katmanluke7187
    @katmanluke7187 4 года назад

    Epic video James. Such a treat to see your GT3 being driven as it should be. We actually share the identical crayon car, bar the seatbelt colour... and mileage disparity - oh and the now old ceramics on mine.

  • @johnc6658
    @johnc6658 4 года назад

    Great video. GT3 sounds amazing and goes to show the quality of engineering which leads me on to the brake pads. Yes expensive but you get what you pay for. If you can afford a car north of £100k and run it on track than €1800 for pads is relative. Good luck.

  • @Andy-pu2iv
    @Andy-pu2iv 4 года назад

    Wish I'd watched this before last weekend. I replaced the discs, pads and 1 caliper on the front of my '03 Honda Civic last Friday. Damn, I could have saved a flippin' fortune if I'd gone down the ceramic route...

    the thing about ceramic brakes is that they surely do last longer, but when it's gonna be time to change the disks oh boy! I've heard Porsche will ask around 20k for a pair.. And that's why some GT owners who track a lot actually go for the steel option
