2014 Porsche 911 Turbo Hot Lap! - 2014 Best Driver's Car Contender
Pro driver Randy Pobst hot laps the 2014 Porsche 911 Turbo around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca for Motor Trend's 2014 Best Driver's Car Powered by Mobil ...
Sublime. This is not even their track attack model, yet it spanks
everything except the GTR. And even that is debatable. I'm sure Randy's
second fastest lap in the GTR is slower than the 911T, a tenth of a second
is a slim margin, at best.
+Larz True but these aren't hot laps though. Randy does a few practice laps before really going at it. Carbon ceramics also help reduce unsprung weight which helps handling.With that said, I fail to see how the GTR is not half a second faster here when it pulls an almost 2 sec lead at VIR during this year's lightning lap.
+Tobi Ogunsanwo Not on a hot lap. Steel brakes are just as fast as carbon ceramic on the first lap. It's the subsequent laps, like at a track day or in a real race, where cars like the GTR with steel brakes start to post slower lap times, while the 911 clicks off the same time, lap after lap.
+Pedro Hernan Good point. The pdk will do launch control starts indefinitely without breaking or overheating, too. Nissan will void your warranty for that. And even in this vid, Randy was complaining about the brakes on the GTR.
Open your eyes, Maximum GTR wich is able to supossedly goes 7:08 in RING,
here with a luck can manage 0.1 in a hard lap over a .7:24 Seconds Turbo S
car having GRIPPIER tires. Not to mention that the GTR overheat the brakes
in couple of lap (See Randy left foot before Corkscrew due to the fading),
and Porsche can go alldaylong according to Randy´s comment.. 5lap race and
the TurboS kills that "Track racing GTR" and can pick childrens after
school, Still the best Dailysupercar, Consumes less fuel, Got less
emissions, Its LOT better build, Its luxury and practical and doesnt look
ordinary or vulgar. WITH VIRTUALLY NO DIFFERENCE in lap times, I DONT GIVE
A FUCK WITH THAT FAKE 7:08 LAP TIME. And IF I WANT SOMETHING CHEAP AND
FAST, AT LEAST IT HAVE TO BE EXITING TO DRIVE, Not like the GTR, More like
a CORVETTE, VIPER or CAMARO at least. If you want the BEST and most
advanced and practical and COMPLETE Supercar go for the expensive but
BETTER 911 Turbo S. Chevys are doing pretty good work! NISSAN GTR got stuck
in real performance and other aspects.
+Pedro Hernan Funny I think you're the only one that noticed the braking on the GTR before Corkscrew. He was totally doing a gut check on whether he was going to have a really bad next 30 seconds :-)
+John (new channel) Not faster, the porsche 911 turbo S even destroyed the Nismo GTR. Also not sure if you know GTR you are not recommended to launch it, the porsche you can launch it indefinitely. And this all coming from a GTR fan boy, you can look up the videos or porsche launching 100 times in a row or the world's greatest drag race 4. It's all there.
The gtr is quite reliable as far as supercars go... and faster but not better looking

@InitialDAmine...considering the ZR1 is only 1-2sec behind such a track
built bada** car like the RS is on many track w/ the factory run-flats, I’d
consider it is “close” already. I was directly talking about a 1/4 though,
which yes DR’s does give it faster 1/4 times. Either way I love Porsche,
just not ppl that leave derogatory comments towards other bada** cars; so
in a nut shell…yes I believe a tire swap can def close a 1-2sec gap on a
track & it’s been shown to run faster in the 1/4 :-)
@InitialDAmine Trust me I know wut I'm talking about; I wasn't talking
about track racing while talking about layout, I was talking about 1/4mile
so I was spot on pimpin. As far as midship yeah it helps on track vs RR,
but that's why Porsche has thousands & thousands of $ put into tech &
computers. There is plenty of things that can nullify the RS layout…or I
could say wut u said…”sorry but you have just proven your limited knowledge
about cars?!” The RS has massive down force most likely...
@InitialDAmine...more in the rear to help add stability to throttle lift
twitch over steer…or adjusting toe angles, not to mention rolls bars a ZR1
doesn’t have. Then there is a what C&D called a “much-needed
stability-control system, and Porsche’s PASM adaptive suspension” “The
Porsche 911's PASM used two accelerometers…one at the right front shock,
the other at the left rear to register body motions as real-time data for
an electronic control unit. The ECU, in turn, regulated oil
@InitialDAmine believe any of those till they have some type of outside
referring. As for as track times 1-2sec can be a lot & can be very little;
for example a track w/ a tight corner & short sprint to the finish can
result in low speeds so 2-3car lengths...but yes it can be a lot too on
larger straights. Either way I love both cars & Porsche has put $ into
efficiently using all it's hp & traction hints why they cost a lot more.
Until GM figures out some way to get power down it'll always be..
@InitialDAmine It may have the same tires I haven't look that up, but the
layouts r diff. FRWD vs RRWD...a car w/the motor sittin on the rear ties
will hook up a lot better, not to mention the insane LC system...same
reason why the GTR a 3,800+car w/only 420hp beat just about everything out
off the line causing everyone to play catchup. Why I mentioned the ZR1
could keep up w/ the faster lighter RS was cuz I said add tires to the ZR1
so it can use it's hp,basically ZR1 is limited by traction...
@InitialDAmine...that's all I was trying to say. ZR1 w/those tires can't
truly use it's hp till just after u shift in 2nd u know. So a ZR1 in stock
trim puts 11.3-11.5 in the 1/4 so no I don't think it can out drag a GT2rs
that runs 11flats lol...but if it had better rubber than yes it's all over
youtube runnin high 10's. And if u believe any Nur. laps times I'm sorry,
but if i told u how fast I could run a 40yrd dash & that my manager timed
it on a stop watch would u believe me? ;-) I won't...
@MaxwellReviresco you are answering the wrong person here i never and will
never say a ZR1 is more extreme a porsche never!now back to your comment
the GT2 RS is 100k+ more in terms of price but 100+$ the car at least if
not more! quality sensation performance, value..... ect ect all this things
add up.Now back to tires you understand that a stock GT2 and ZR1 has the
same Michelin Copilot tires yet a ZR1 is no faster than a GT2 in fact is
kinda the opposite and so can it be faster than a GT2RS
@MaxwellReviresco Chevrolet wasn't and never will be on that range, sure
the ZR1 is a great perfomance car for it price! but i hate it when i see
people saying it is the best or the fastest or it smokes every other car
while all we see is comparaisons with 500bhp cars and less hence it coudn't
even beat a 523bhp GT2 and that should proves it range of performance ....
And yeah.. you woudn't see porsche or ferraris or whatever saying stupid
stuff like they smokes or they are kind or what so ever
@MaxwellReviresco sorry but you have just proven your limited knowledge
about cars ! sure the ZR1 is FRWD but it is a midship car, the engine
position is the in the center of the car is and the weight distribution is
almost perfect , where as the 911 GT2 is a RR which means it can't have a
perfect weight distribution and tends to oversteer everywhere! the only
thing that RR layout is good at is acceleration as you get a little bit of
grip at launch!on tracks the ZR1 is about as good as a GT2.
@InitialDAmine I was referring to ur comment bout how the ZR1 is "more
extreme" than a 997...and it clearly isn't more extreme, maybe has more hp
but has almost none of the nannies the of Porsche.You then threw the GT2 RS
which is 100k+more extreme of a machine than a ZR1 w/ tech like DOHC, VTG,
PSM, LC and handfuls of other things. But to answer ur question of, do I
think tossing out the only handicap other than the driver a ZR1 has for a
set of DOT tires can get "close to a GT2 RS" well…
@MaxwellReviresco if the 523hp GT2 gives a tough time to the ZR1 how come
the more hard core the 611hp GT2RS is close to the ZR1??? mind explaning to
me? Now back to your point, Sorry but 2s on a 1min is HUGE! and it just
shows the difference on long tracks like the nurburgring where you have
almost 10s differance on a one lap!and i disagree with you again when you
say a ZR1 is faster in the 1/4! the only thing proven is that a mere 500ps
997 turbo has put to shame the 647ps ZR1(lighter car)
@MaxwellReviresco the nurbugring record for the GT2 RS and the ZR1 are
quite fair, and the point is proven if you look at the other track records!
2s on a 1 min lap a nurburgring laps is 7minxx so 7x2=14s where as the real
difference is about 10s, On the acceleration terms the ZR1 can do 10s but
only with drag radials and slicks and that a point i agree on with you but
the GT2 RS does 10s with stock tires as the Turbo (awd but 200kg heavier
and 120 hp less than GT2RS)
@MaxwellReviresco Yup but i believe when there conditions are different it
is mentioned! it is like the ZR1 time on the nurburging which was done on
several weeks while the GT2 RS didn't have that luxury yet it has almost
10s lead and that is the trend well confirmed in every track 1min laps
about 2s difference 2min about 4s difference ect. It is not only about
efficiency and traction but there are alot of other stuff such as quality,
technology ect
@InitialDAmine the same story LC is king. It's Porsche fan boy time now to
rub it in everyones faces b/c their new line up came out. Soon Ferrari will
have there turn, than Lambo, GTR, Corvette...it's always like that,
everyone one ups everyone every new remake. Z06 did it to everyone, than
the 911 Porsches, than GTR out did those, ZR1 broke Nur record, ACR broke
ZR1 time, now 997 GT2rs etc etc.
@InitialDAmine level in each shock absorber (via a bypass valve), thus
varying firmness to suit speed and road surface” Porsche is the most
successful racing car brand ever made…even w/ RR they know what they’re
doing. From what I've been reasing up PASM cut off 5seconds off track times
when it came out. Tech can help tame those issues...as well radiators up
front etc etc.
@2Gtrevo u mean the car that's over 300lbs lighter than the ZR1, has the
same hp, and has a MSRP that's starts at twice the cost of a ZR1? That
Porsche is way more "xtreme" than a ZR1. The ZR1 with a tire swap would put
it right with that gt2 rs ;-)
The Fastest Car in Need For Speed 2015 - "Porsche 911 Carrera RSR 2.8" - Too Overpowered !!!
Including car settings & Top 3 lap record !!! Car settings : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoaOYyz8tRk " Best acceleration & highest speed in corners !
I'm so glad I bought this car way back and it is an rocket on straight and
corner, I recommended alot to use this car but they seem to doubt it but I
won against exotics so many time with this I had tried lambo, ferrari and
mclaren they are fast but the cars felt difficult to turn and lose speed in
corner the 911 rsr will catch up iin no time at all I strongly approved
this car to be the best. What I have now are 911 rsr for grip rx7, nsx,
focus, corvette for drift I tested around 45 cars this 5 seem to be doing
great the skyline also pretty good too.
