Crazy flat out GT2RS

[Welshbeef]

Lovely noise
Lovely cars
Mega speed
High speed oversteer

Lunatics doing it on the public highway.

I might be wrong but I think I can see max rpm in 4th then hard and deep into 5th on the public highway A/B roads.

Good job nothing was approaching in the opposite direction on the second bend a right hander.

Totally misjudged the camber and excess speed crossing wide onto the opposite carriageway.

fkwit.

If you look in the reflection of the mirror at 4:17 you can see the 75 year old local lady in her red Fiat Panda with its left indicator on wanting to get past.

Yep, these kind of cars are a bit of a dichotomy unless on a track, you have 600 bhp but you cant really use it, unless you drive at wholly inappropriate and antisocial speeds or dont use it to anything like its capability so seems a waste.

That was some brave driving indeed.

GT2 RS around 700 bhp actual. Porsche quote less but always conservative.

Awesome car but as you rightly say essentially frustrating as a roadcar as detached at lower speeds.

The new 650bhp 992 TTS is more focused than its predecessor and offers similar but awd performance at around half the current c£335k price of a 2 year old GT2 RS.

Seen a couple of reviews and it seems to be very well liked, cant afford one anyway but getting increasingly less bothered about power outputs.

Some bad bits, that corner early on where he ran wide was a brave move. Mostly just hooning about on a damp road though. Hardly flat out.

Didn't realise we could embed youtube videos now. Well done PH for becoming relatively modern.

As for this, well I guess I'm in before the 'it's PH not mumsnet' driving gods come in and cry foul at anyone that dares suggest this is dhead behaviour.

Regardless of their driving skill, you just can't do that with the public about on roads that haven't got great visibility. If you could see for miles in the oncoming direction then yeah, give it a bash knowing that if it goes wrong only you're gonna pay the price but not when you can't see what's coming.

I love to see a GT2 RS getting a proper run out but take it to a track and don't be a .

Anyone can be brave. Brave driving is poor driving.

Which can result in the death of others. This dangerous and inexperienced driver is just plain selfish.

They nearly killed other motorist, absolute s.

Looked like he was on the verge of losing control the whole video.

Well he has another vid going now. This one he nearly loses it when round a corner facing a truck and having to blind overtake at high speed.

Countless nearly losing it on oversteer and some very very big speeds on the public roads.

Car amazing
Noise amazing
A shame it’s not a. Closed road to do this but it’s not.

What country is it? Have some nice roads.

That was my thoughts. Didn’t look brave or good at all - more idiotic and essentially not in control at all.

[Debaser]

The first video doesn’t look very shocking to me. I got bored part way through the second one.

He's obviously not a driving god but tbh that thing is an animal and he's having a go (which tbh is a bit far on public roads) But jesus what a car!
He does get a bit close on occasion
