You need fighter pilot levels of toughness to get behind the wheel of that thing.

It must be nauseating driving that car for long periods of time, the forces on their bodies must be incredible, over 5Gs of cornering force, I wonder if they put heavy brazing on their necks to avoid their heads moving excessively from side to side.

It's like driving the fastest F1 cars. I remember that even in 2012 at Suzuka the fastest ones (likely the Red Bulls) reached 6Gs in the corners of the iconic japanese track.

This is something different it's the 1967 German GP at the N-Ring.

Fantastic footage, thanks!

One final info that probably many of you already know.
Anyway, it is still worth being mentioned as it is crazy: the 5.5Gs at the Eau Rouge of the 919 Evo were pulled with open DRS.

That's right, the 919 Evo generates so much downforce from its underbody that it can take the luxury of pulling 5.5Gs in one of the most demanding race corners in the world with open DRS.

Not bad, almost like my car, but still not quite there.

Also here, for a further comparison, you can see Vettel pulling 5.0Gs with a 2017 SF70H.

0-200/h I’m 4s ? How is this possible !!!

AWD. A 2016 Mercedes F1 car could do 100-300kph in under 6s, whilst exiting a turn at the start. 100-200kph in 2s, 200-300kph in 4s. Traction is the only thing stopping 0-100kph in under 2s.

Even so it’s just still amazing that from standstill it can accelerate from 0-200kph in 4s. Mind boggling, the acceleration off the line must be insane.

 

[WBarnes]

Definitely but you only start from rest once every race.

Justs for shits and giggles I'd like to see Porsche put the 919EVO up Pikes Peak, it's all tarmac now, so it should work fine.

Incredible, only 7 seconds slower than his time with the GT2 RS!
Also second fastest stock car of Hockenheimring Short...

 

[mihc]

Ha! I just wanted to type, that I predict 7:06-07 time. I was close! What a car!

 

[DataHunter]

That GT3 RS is a fast machine that keeps its motor clean. 7:05 is faster than their 918 supertest...

 

[mihc]

Which car will be next month in supertest?

 

[WBarnes]

1s faster than 918 on Hockenheim Short too.

 

[A.P.]

Cup 2Rs works like magic. Anyone know if Michelin will make them for other cars too or will those tires be Porsche exclusive?

Yes, but remember on much stickier rubber...
