Caterham R500 Vs 996 GT2 - Nurburgring battle lap2

[mikeb1444]

Excellent driving. The guy makes it look easy.

[akis337]

fucking epic video!!!!

[alphaprawns]

A bit of poo came out at 2:10.... Seriously, props to the guy for holding it.

[Thiagofcostacg]

i could watch it for hours

[elfranko81]

Caterham does not have abs or tc. I may be wrong. If not, then the guy in the caterham has balls the size of king kong.

[MrSpeedysteve1]

This is a Caterham, fear not they are so catchable. In a normal road car you would be in the hedge several times. He is a quick catcher though.

[tallica1988]

Cornering entry and exit speed is what's impressive, straight line speed is for the person with the most money. Awesome skills!

[bourneyesterdayi]

Allied Forces defeat the Germans yet again...

[vandalcad]

3:45 !!!!!!



[skogpekka]

Quality set to 720; -check- Video set to preloading; -check- *fetching another cold beer* This is gonna be great!

[chas4life]

Nice car - scary driver. I f I were dicing it up with this guy on a track I'd probably stay back and just wait for the crash before passing also.

[transsib]

Now, this is the shit! Amazing driving!

[popilirol]

He also was so damn lucky few times. Oh and besides, that gearbox is SHIT.

[skogpekka]

@popilirol Luck doesn't simply occur, several times, on a racetrack. 'Big moments' do, but they are in turn countered with experience and skill. ;)

[popilirol]

The car has NO stability whatsoever.

[AndyJamesWilliams]

That was mental

[DizzyMan24]

Thats whats it's like on Nurburg. You starts going full on, and get into a race with some random guy.

All the marshals can do is hope it doesn't end in a big crash. Can't wait to try it myself one time.

[sArAkUzZa]

dont try this at home....this guy has big knowledge, no brain and iron balls

[paul88146]

skills

[gil968]

in 2-3 punti mi hai fato sudare freddo pur stando alla scrivania... complimenti. ciao

[paulthefkr]

come si fa a non investire 30k € per questo mezzo.

complimenti al driver,il ring lo conosci bene :)

[Balleknack]

I WANT ONE!!!

[footro]

Dear Stig. Why do you wear red helmet instead of white?

[kevd430]

great driving !



[S4Ads]

Most committed lap of the Ring I have ever seen...respect.

[Miiiirvine]

Epic drift on a fast lap at 3:49 :)

[klaprat]

It breaks out really fast^^

[diptob79]

Respect... Hold my breath watching this video

[321reball]

this looks just like Nurburgring

[beechface1]

@321reball -.-

[tizifaso]

tanto di cappello! :-)

[MrWattyWat]

Yeah! 3:50 is the shit! hahahaha

[kidlocoIT]

Holy shit-car frime hell!

Respect fir driver

[onpsxmember]

a pedal cam would be great to see you shifting

[onpsxmember]

really awesome job,

i'll buy a kit when i got the money

and will learn to drive it properly like you

[london6465]

Porsche driver was a good sport though and showed humility at the end being beaten by the 7...

[fiatch500]

7=mans car

porsche = rich mans car

[sashaman1234]

Forget steel, that guy's got balls of Chuck-Norris.

[Londweard]

Would have been 'easier' without the windscreen air-brake. Great video and driving. Sound excellent. I keep coming back to it.

[adamchips69]

is that the fist of fury at the start lol

[dedoodful]

geweldig man ..

[mikdre]

He gets in a few situations that would make me shit my pants. Great driving!

[20zollPinocchio]

turn in - oversteer what a great car! damn good driving Dario!!!!

[mitchellmira13]

Unusual remarks on this video yet again.

[aotule]

It's STIG's german brother, from another father. Some say they have computer chips for brains and he has 1 leg and 2 penises. All we know hail stiggy

[ime13543]

David vs Goliath..



[MKDeflector]

OMG this driver is skilled....When you see the risks he takes....

[03GTZE]

The best Driving,I've ever seen Lately. Congratulations. It's funny that the Catherham here in the U.S, are Using the Ford, 2.0 Zetec engines, but only making around 180 H.P. It's not bad for Small tracks. But for long Road racing Like in Nurburgring, you need more Horse Power. 

[smalbro]

the Catherham R500 reminds me of IL Tempo Gigante!!

[acodike]

you can say "fuck ken block and his drifting shit... this is pure racing"

[douchechillum]

@acodike Then what do you call 3:49?

[GRBillHF]

Great pair of hands... and balls! Pure racing drive! Congrats to both of you!

[GregCathalina]

This must be how those old Formula 1 cars without spoilers drove. Pure awesomeness.

[keepcornering]

very nice driving on a very dangerous circuit congrats

[051croatia]

DO YOU DRIVE A WHEELBARROW AROUND FOR THOSE BIG BALLS LOL?!

[dattad2]

And where did that Lotus come from at 4:54 ?

[dattad2]

My favorite part was that amazing drift at 3:49

[sammo2510]

wow that was a scary moment at 2.10 but awesome driving m8

[mordorlac]

PORRA O CARA DIGIGE PRA KRALEO!!!!!!!!

[M0b1u5]

One of the best views of the track of any YT video! But almost ruined by the awful microphone. :P

I know which car I'd rather be in. Hint: it has a roof.

I'd like to see the same race against the 4WD 911, being pushed hard.

[eurosceptic1]

England 1 - Germany 0 :)

[NearTheLimits]

07:45: is that a 316i beemer ?

[MoertlAgony]

2:08 : Decision between being fast or car 100% damaged

[junba108]

amazing!!!!!!!!!



[georgesmp]

It takes balls like steel to drive one of these apparently ... respect!

[chewybunz]

Fun, but C'ETAIT EN RENDEZVOUS is more exciting, with its tight urban confines and traffic creating a palpable sense of danger.

[Afondo37]

It is amazing to see the work of the suspension..

[bensch87]

must own one of these

[medse]

amazing

[bigben0316]

4:51 Hi Lotus !

4:57 Bye Lotus !

[dyingangelo]

@bigben0316 that a porche i think?

[xWOMBOCOMBOx]

@dyingangelo nope. its an elise.

[bldeagle10]

thing looks like a handful!

[bldeagle10]

thing looks like a handful!

[chefben2]

A little poo came out at 2:11

[lacorstraz]

@chefben2 the rest came out at 3:47

[klaprat]

@lacorstraz No, this was a controlled drift;)))

[Balleknack]

@chefben2 Yeah! Had to rewind... Could've gone VEEEERRRYYY BAD!!!

[MrHack92]

good driver

[imgonnafuckuup1]

man I want a caterham

[caseman86]

2:10 so f*ing scary

[drifter105]

i thought you were going to die at 2:10

[CrazyBuzzy1]

2:11 insane

[Patrio7]

good race / play around. :D well done for both drivers

[aldolaclas]

tu a du te faire une peur bleu a la minute 2-11 quelle pilotage bravo a tout les 2 a quand les prochaines vidéo track4 fun

[aldolaclas]

te vraiment un grand pilote mec il y a rien a jeter a quand la prochaine course

[cxbra]

The Caterham really chews on the GT2 in the corners. The Porsche has to brake through corners, the Caterham simply coasts through them without braking.

[JuicingDailyTV]

@ThePowerOfMotorsport

Most likely about 85 mph + the 996 gets ahead

[superchiller123chill]

that is some insane driving 2:11 was manic!

[imgonnafuckuup1]

that looked like a lot of fun

[logmegadeth72]

oh hey there's a Porsche! wait where'd it go..?

[W42PZ]

Huge balls at 2.10!

[aFlamingTaco]

I love how you can see the Front wheels react to the road. :)

[stotheimon1]

what a brave driver!!!! ôO

[Revenunt]

why the double clutching around 5:30?

[nikebauer1993]

@Revenunt He was granny shifting, not double clutchin' like he should have. Ask any racer, any real racer......

[xX01RKXx]

@nikebauer1993 please upload your own driving and show us your skill. by the looks of your user name you are only 18 years so im sure this wont be very likely.

[nikebauer1993]

@xX01RKXx Yeah i was joking dumbass. And i actually just spent 10 days at the Ring in a Porsche 911 GT3 RS, check my channel in the coming days for uploads. Now you just got fucking owned son.

[xX01RKXx]

@nikebauer1993 seeing as how all of your other videos are you playing video games. i really doubt this

[nikebauer1993]

@xX01RKXx as i said, in the coming days. Or are you scared of being proved wrong?

[Vollhirni]

@nikebauer1993 videos, please? pretty please?! wanker.

[Vollhirni]

@xX01RKXx hehe, still only video games on his channel :-D

[purklefluff]

whoah..... 2:10... holy crap indeed.

[Sursion7]

2:10 HOLY CRAP.

[nikebauer1993]

Spot the dumbass in the stupid Renaulsport clio at 5:10 that blocks the Caterham. Why is it everyone that buys one of those Clios is an idiot??

[ramiejose]

@nikebauer1993 my dad used to have 1... lol dw it was a good car

[nikebauer1993]

@ramiejose Haha, apologies dude. Its just everyone in england i see with them are like 21 year olds and just because it has black wheels and spoiler they think its a supercar haha

[fiatwoody]

Fantastic drive,thanks for showing.

[shawncweed]

Friend, that was epic...you drive like you are being chased by the devil! Congrats...and thanx!

[wilkas222]

@shawncweed ... and devil is riding that 996!

[shawncweed]

@wilkas222 Indeed...I like how the lotus gets to top speed on the straights and runs out of gear and the GT2 just soars bye...then the curves come and the Caterham earns his way back...really a great video that shoes two philosophies in Car design for the track...

[nickgregory89]

2:11 - the driver shat his pants

[lordformat]

x dio

[3333glen]

Amazingly good video. Superb driver. Sweet car. Looks like briefly airborne at 1:50. Scare @ 2:10 and 3:50. At 2:10, I think was caused by Porsche cutting all the way across track, upsetting airflow. Seemed unnecessary of the Porsche, and if so, jackass.

[burritomaker69]

@3333glen haha although the caterham weighs nothing its not a leaf lol the upset at 2:10 was caused by elevation in the track.

[3333glen]

@burritomaker69 You could be right. There's a yump there. But I still think the airflow from the Porsche made a difference. Watched the ZR-1 vid at same spot. Higher speed, I'm sure (about 170?), and was fine, but then also had better downforce. I'd say only track4fun can say for sure.

Anyway, one helluva drive. Sign me envious.

[3333glen]

@burritomaker69 I watched the same guy in his Lap 1 vid. Same spot in track he takes the rise with no problem.

[burritomaker69]

@3333glen Then I guess either one of us could be wrong haha or right. haha he might have just been more prepared or one of the other million possibilities. But who is to say unless we ask him haha.

[burritomaker69]

@3333glen After looking at it again it doesnt quiet seem like it was caused by the gt2s wind spoiling haha it was kinda delayed a second or 2 after he had crossed his path it would be more immediate from my experience haha.

[marcop7539]

at the end he takes off his helmet and says... : "my name is Loeb, Sebastian Loeb" LOL!! really amazing skills!!

[thehollows]

nice save on the exit of the caroucel!

[wacky0pker]

Best racing video ive seen, awesome driving

[trimar42]

ave

belle conduite et gros courage !

si vite avec une cat  sans arceau ????

[SkylineGT10]

Great driver, but car looks very unsettled and unbalanced to me.

[cardude1992]

@SkylineGT10 tryst me when driven to these extremes, all light weight rear wheel drive cars look unsettled.

[SkylineGT10]

@cardude1992

Thanks for your reply, but I've driven many a lightweight rear drive on the track, from an SR20DET powered Datsun 1200 to a turbo 13B rotary Mazda RX7 among many other types of race car.

My experience tells me there's something not right with the tyre/shock/suspension set-up with this car in the video. I've raced alongside Fraser 7 (Lotus 7 replicas) here in NZ at 150 mph + and never noticed them to be this unsettled.

[cardude1992]

@SkylineGT10 well then you have alot more knowledge about this stuff than i do cus ive never raced like that. im just a car enthusiast lol

[ASSHOLELA]

the dash looks strikingly similar to a koenigsegg cccx

[Sooprazn]

Nice powerslide at 3:50. Wonderful car control.

[philsturman]

Incredible vid! Thanks for sharing. Get rid of the headlights and you'd gain another 500 mph! :-)

[suvacrew]

That was brilliant driving by both drivers...but If I was a passenger in the R500 I would have pressed the eject button with pants full of crap numerous times! Testament to the Caterham legend. Amazing bang for the buck!

[dahreeus]

Only badasses drift the Nurburgring likes it's Mario Kart 64

[devfuse]

omg @2:08 vice nice... that could have ended in a mess but nice save :)

[LTRespekt]

schweiss auto 

[kornbaguett]

close call @ 2:11 brrrrrrr

[scheeenfilmiesgucke]

this is seriously the best Ring-video evaaa!

[letzebauer]

@2:10 uiuiuiuiuiui, close...!!

[JasonMann8]

if this car had a little bit of downforce, it would be flawless



[christianluff]

Amazing skills! Nice work. Both awesome cars. Awesome track.

[safzuan]

6 speed.. hmmm

[MrPhylax]

Korrektes Video.



[francescop1]

@2:09 he almost lost it at at least 150mph! he would have died surely if he went off there, this is insane! (in a good way)

[fcukthenicks]

@francescop1 thats where my heart skipped a beat. shiiiit. I hope the drivers lives today :P

[mzondi1970]

Ive wanted a caterham since i was a kid and didnt even know what they were..i dont know if my six foot three frame would fit in one now

[abgudge]

@mzondi1970 Yes you would. I'm 6 foot 5 and 19 stone. You need the SV model allows up to 6'7" i believe. You can hire a caterham for the day for £175.00 plus a deposit. Just go to their website

[str8guinness]

1. the guy is a good driver

2. the guy in the gt2 is scared of the car therfore he is not driving the car near its full potential. my opinion dont care if u think otherwise

[Vegio7]

2:10 Holy S**T!!!!

[cscleison]

O cara ficou com sangue nozóio!!! PQP que briga boa!!

[davsmachado]

03:50 RESPECT

[TripleZ89]

I see footage of sterile 6 digit costing road precision cutting tools in videos on the 'ring all the time, cutting through everything with such scapel like precision, that it's refreshing to see footage like this of some kit car go cart weaving and sliding all the way to a victory against a vastly superior and more technologically advanced Porsche. Best racing vid I've ever seen right here!

[RatRodyo]

8 people drive gt2's lol

[Rapide0910]

@RatRodyo Porsches are still nice cars, you gotta admit.

[RatRodyo]

@Rapide0910 of course but the driver of this one was far from on point

[legendarygunman316]

If he wouldn't have had the rear camera on the car, he probably would have left the GT2 completely in the dust hahahahaha

[ThePwig]

This guy is doing himself in most of the time. He gets on the power too soon in nearly every corner. he needs to drive a little more relaxed and give it the beans all at once later in the exit. But still thrilling. Totally jealous.

[ethownzbh]

jesus that thing is tail happy

[NeighborOfTheBeast89]

Light is Right

[chrisduncan007]

Holly Cow......The Red Mist descend's into his helmet, cue large adrenalin shot, 8 mins 30 of magic!

[FBobby]

The Porsche was the faster car, but that guy drove the HELL outta that caterham. Props to that guy all day.

[M3V8]

RESPECT!!!

[shizanester]

Wow, way to hang it out there dude. He's just right there on the ragged edge the whole time.

[SM0K3Y777]

absolutely awsome love caterhams :) my butt cheeks tightened at the 2:10 mark too lol

[TrasparentLatex]

4:55 IT'S A LOOOOOOTUUUUS!!!!!!!

[MrHypermoto]

Only three spots on the course where Porsch can make up time. Plus the guy in the 500 was obviously pretty good with his car. Dude in the Porsch was really dainty in the turns. The 500 has one of the best sounds, pure race car magic.

[Guizmo900]

Won in the curves

[Dataacid]

the caterham is more like a go-kart XD

[rogerio011]

hey a droite c'est une vignet Suisse auto route :D

[Dirtlooter]

3:48 Fucking nice!!!

[kingandeh]

3:50 weeeee
