Kevin Estre flat out on damp Nürburgring - 273km/h!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Another incredible lap of the Nürburgring Nordschleife, 7:07 BTG in cold (10c), damp conditions with Nürburgring legend, Porsche factory race driver, Kevin Estre, in the new 992 GT3 RS with Weissach package! This was a charity lap (which I paid full price for) to raise money for the Du Sport et Plus childrens' charity, on the Manthey Racing track day on the 23rd October 2023. This GT3 RS is a development car loaned by Porsche for the day. It was on brand new (cold) Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport R tyres, which took a while to bed in/warm up.
We hit 274km/h just before Scwedenkreuz, and a crazy 265km/h through Foxhole!
Thank you so much Kévin for another amazing lap!

That’s a pretty much about as hot a lap you’re going to get for a passenger ride, those new tyres really did need scrubbing to get the grip in them initially, he was turning the wheel and nothing was happening to start with! I would love that experience, although I’d be sh##ing myself the entire lap….he was probably at about 80% pace there, amazing to think of it going even quicker.
Amazing Kevin is the best, ran my GT3RS in around there in September 7000rpm limit !

My 992 GT3 RS is GT Silver Metallic (as is my GT4 RS). From the thumbnail, this one looks like Dolomite Silver Metallic, like my 992 GT3 (manual). I love it...hint of icy blue in it. I initially spec'd my 992 GT3 RS with Azurro Thetys Metallic, but Porsche got backlogged on PTS and I didn’t want to wait several more months.

@@jayliwela6402 yes the Porsche Germany press cars always have the ‘S-GO’ numberplates. S is for Stuttgart and GO is for ‘Geschäftsbereich Oeffentlichkeitsarbeit’ which basically means press/PR division. The development cars however are from Weissach, so have the BB numberplates, being in Böblingen.

Nice video✌️ Loved you last one with Kevin on a dry NBR🚀 I guess its no idé to overide dynamic DRS in these conditions. (It looks like the wings is in maximum downfore all the time) If full dry I guess full downforce is not in need on meny fast sections. For instance kesselchen Kevin would do flat in low downforce mode (DRS) to gain vmax up that section (and some other sections)
@andrewhurstcars

Thanks! The DRS on the wing here on the RS is constantly adjusted by the car. It opens on straight sections then shuts for braking and cornering.

@@andrewhurstcars Thanks..That's exactly what I reacted to that it doesn't seem to work. Because in the car's display it is clearly visible when DRS is engaged. Usually it lights up in green with the text DRS active when the car goes into low aero. Here its only orange and you see it all time (hence wing is up full aero all lap?)
