2:19:9 - 981 GT4 stock + passenger
This lap is well known.

Amazing driving… I just wish it had a proper data overlay so we could see the time mapped to the video, speed + G at least.
Biggest thing for me is the braking… super aggressive, just allows speed to be eked out over the lap, mega Apex, and the car control to have it on the limit like that.
You won’t find anything else close to this… best non-pro amateur will be 5secs off that in a standard power car 981 GT4, around Silverstone.
Will be interesting to see what 718 GT4 and upgraded 981 GT4 can do later on this summer.

It’s all about braking and corner speed.
yep always about brakes and apex speeds. I think he is targeting to be in the 2.17's in the 718 GT4 this Wednesday, so will move the game on for us mortals to try and impossibly follow.

I literally tried to follow him last Thursday, quiet session and no traffic. I soon realised it would end in tears and had to pit for a breather!
