Onboard Driver's Eye: VW Golf GTI TCR Race Car

We had the opportunity to sample VW's brilliant Golf GTI Touring car around Portimao. The aim was to draw comparisons between itself and it's road going cousin with the same name.

Hallo David, nice video, best wishes from RaceRoom simulators @ Portimao

[@DavidPerel]

Thanks for your time Manuel! Those laps really helped me before I jumped into the race car. I used the same technique in almost every corner. I wish I mentioned that in the video but completely forgot to film a segment about it.

[@_GT3_Manu]

@@DavidPerel no problem, if you have fun with it, it makes me happy and if it helbs you to push the race car harder, we have made all properly. ;-)

[@kinangeagle133]

I still dont understand what that lever is for

[@miguelangelmosqueraibargue7961]

Why does it have that beep?

[@peps90crg]

Do you use cambox or gopro?

[@DavidPerel]

GoPro for these videos mate

[@khalifabdul-samaad877]

Why is the shifter so long? I'm just curious

[@khalifabdul-samaad877]

Don't mean to sound sexual

[@Richwood81]

it is next to steering wheel because your hand then doesn't have to move that much away from steering. This safes important milliseconds to each shifting...

[@connorhale727]

How much would a race seat like this cost?

[@DavidPerel]

I am guessing about €250-300k for a season

[@kristoft51]

Is this Portimao?

[@DavidPerel]

Yep!
