  • Congrats on the podium 2011 PCA Race at Daytona

  • You know RSR14, watching this vid makes me wonder about the behavior of some of those other PCA drivers... It looks like a lot of those guys need to use their mirrors more. I mean, it's a club race for fun; you got into some pretty tight squeezes through the infield...

  • A glorified track day for 911 based cars.... fantasy sport...

    I'd rather see an ALMS GT-2 race for all comers..... 430GT's, etc...

    Snore...

    No spectators means cheaper event insurance....

    Even the rich PCA types appreciate that..

  • Real cars on a real race track in America? Shame there are no audience at the stands!?

  • Awesome videos man... hoping someday to get into road racing, I live southeast of Lime Rock Park.

  • 991 gt3 cup car right lol cup alone i wantd to knwo if u change interior for racin lol

  • Don't you just love that GT2.

    The old fart still has enough muscle.

    I'd even buy a replica of that just for the looks, those hips are so sexy.

    Now if they just made a racing version of that GT2 RS...

    Very cool vid by the way, professional driving, tops.

  • Looks like the 993 has a power advantage; most likely from the turbos.

  • dammmmmmm u got smoked frm the roll homie..........

  • is that actually nascar circuit

  • great vid++

  • 993 is wicked fast. But a cup is my first choice. Love it

  • that is not a turbo its the tranny boy. These guys shift a lot beacuse they are smart and use engine braking in combination with the brakes the latter effect makes one faster.

  • drivers don't downshift to help slow down the car, they downshift to have maximum acceleration coming out of the corner.

  • @JUMPMAN23MCM exactly, downshifting using the gearbox destroys the gearbox and is crap driving

  • @JUMPMAN23MCM it's both, having the engine rev as you try to brake:

    1. you prevent driving (in this case rear) whells locking

    2. you assist in slowing the car down, compression forces in the engine affect the transmission.

  • @tyresmoke yes, you are right; compression forces help slow the car down, but in racing, that is not the primary function for decelerating the car.

    but rowing through the gears is simply a waste of energy and unneeded stress placed upon the clutch and transmission

  • Sorry, but that is bullshit.

    Think about it: do you think the brakes of a race car need support from the drivetrain when slowing down?

    The reason why they downshift during braking is because it is easier than doing it mid corner.

    And yes, the sound is the tranny ;).

  • its crazy to see how many times he shifts per lap. good driving skills as well

  • Awesome driving. Super cool.

  • Enjoyed watching your video. Similar racing styles we have, just different German cars. My budget won't let me enjoy GT3 status. Until then, I will live through videos like yours. Well done...great run.

  • Set apart the drivers'skill (I ignore it and no offence for anyone),the 993 seems clearly faster in flat out sections,but slower entering into turns and may be with a lower braking power.

    In burn out accelerations are similar up to the 3rd gear I dare say.

    Can smo tell me sth about the bhp output gap

    between these cars and the approx.top speed on the bankings ? Thx.

  • yeah, i agree with that. but man does he know how to drive that thing. it is always crazy to see the skill these drivers have

  • Nice driving Cory! Sweet bump on the slow guy coming out of the infield!!

  • Great lesson! Thx a lot for sharing,

  • Both cars great drving. 'Cool' comparison of air-cooled vs. water-cooled, old vs. new. Go 993GT!!:)No water in my 'lungs'!:)

  • great driving, especially working thru traffic.

    Thank you, I enjoyed watching it

  • Holy cow! This is what I want to be when I grow up (from a noob)! =)

  • Awesome driving Cory! You get through traffic like it's a cake walk. Excellent instructional video for us newbies.

  • Really something man...I cant wait to actually drive something like THAT car with you...haha...

  • ahahahaha there goes leh!

  • Fantatic driving! I'm going to watch this in preparation from my Daytona "debut"
