The Porsche 911 GT2 RS MR | Chris Harris Drives | Top Gear
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The Porsche 911 GT2 RS Manthey Racing has a long name. But the story is quite short and simple: it’s a tuned GT2 RS by Manthey Racing, and it’s the fastest road-legal car to lap the Nürburgring. Now, it’s Chris’s turn. Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear

The problem it's that is filmed in a different frame rate than it's exported at in post, so every single Chris Harris video has a horrible stutter on it. I don't know how no one else mentions this, let alone anyone fix it. Can't wait for them to make the change.
Chris' lap time was only about a second off of the pros. Good on ya mate. You're a fantastic pilot!

Chris is a pro racing driver
I’m 71 years old, and the pinnacle of my “car life” was when I had a 1964 Porsche 356C Cabriolet and a 2004 Porsche Carrera 4S in my garage at the same time - 40 years apart, both works of art. I’d like to drive what I think is the most beautiful Porsche - the 904 GTS (a model of which sits on my desk), but the price is beyond my reach. I had a lot of fun with these beautiful machines!

I’m the orignal owner of a 993 C2S, 997.2 GT3 and 991.1 GT3 RS. I take the GT3 and RS to the track - drive in the morning, track it all day, then drive home. They are remarkable cars on the track and even more remarkable afterward when you drive home comfortable with the A/C and radio on. Porsche owners take great pride in being able to do that and in putting miles on the car. What I’ve found in going to cars & coffee events is that Porsche owners always lament how few miles they get to drive due to family and work obligations while other high end car owners (Ferrari) brag about how few miles they have on their cars. There really is no comparison, for performance, longevity and quality, Porsche is the best.

This is so good, I just watched it for the third time. I love Chris Harris.
Chris, helper springs are effectively zero spring rate once the car is on the ground. They're used to keep the short main springs from misaligning at full suspension droop, where they would otherwise be uncompressed and free to move laterally. You must be thinking of tender springs, which are given a bit more rate.
Oh goodness Chris, great run as ever. Neil Carey and Chris Waterfield, great work on the editing and footage!
Now THIS is a real car channel. And what a car! I just saw a friend's GT2 RS yesterday, took a bit of video, and I already love the car. A proud moment for Porsche owners!
I've driven the standard 991.2 GT2 RS and it's difficult to imagine making it better. Awesome video and well done MR!

It's a tradeoff. The street cars the GT3 cars are based on are usually a lot faster and more powerful (GT3R has circa 550 hp I think). The street cars make better use of the long straights such as the one Portimao has, the trap speed at the end is some 30+ km/h faster than on GT3 cars which are restricted by BOP. Either way you're right. Aero packages on these cars are so extreme they're racing slicks and some extra weight away from racecar status.
Domyos shirt for the win mate. Nice GT2 RS MR by the way.

Chris; brilliant as ever, best automotive journalist around, period. Porsche; always was and will be Kaiser of them all.... Can’t wait for the Valkirye to crush everything and dive way under 6 minites on the Nordschleife...
1.49.53 was the laptime, incredible stuff! If you watched the Grand Tour you will remember they took the 918, P1, and LaFerrari around this same track with a former Formula 1 driver, and those 3 didn't go under 1.55.00 (fastest was the 918 with 1.55.20). The GT2 RS MR smoked them by a good 5 seconds. Just goes to show how far we've come since 2013

Those were standing starts, Chris did flying laps with the same cars and it beat the p1 by 2.5 seconds which is the old record now
I do love the video alot of great info and you do a great job of justifying the addition cost. Keep up the great work. I e often wished you were the test driver for the grand tour.
Chris is just simply Awesome!!! Love his driving, commentary & he lets us just watch & listen, to the car as well. Car is absolutely perfect, it is a Hypercar!!! Thanks😁
Chris harris is to top gear what the GT2 RS is for porsche .. great video
Chris Harris is an amazing presenter, could watch him all-day
The best thing that came out of the end of the original top gear FOR ME, was the discovery of Chris Harris. I know he's here probably for quite some time, but as I'm from Czech Republic (non English speaking country) I had no idea he exists. And thankfuly, NOW I KNOW! And I'm glad...
Chris is a legend now. Every manufacturer wants Chris driving their car, and everyone wants his videos. Chris has come from a private KZread video, to gentleman racer, to serious race car driver in 24hr events around the world. Chris has a way explaining and speaking about the experience of driving a car... Like no other.
McLaren Senna lap at Portimao please. Seems a worthy opponent to this!
Super..! 👌 Greetings from Poland 💕 Anna 💎
Another brilliant video Chris. Your delivery and your driving skills make you the best, by far. Thank you.
Thanks Chris. Awesome clip. We need some cheering up down here in New Zealand right now and this did the trick for me . If you ever are down this way drop me a note and l can arrange some awesome road and track driving with my Porsche Club NZ mates. Bring the RS MR down with you while you’re at it 😀
*Some things are just worth it THIS IS ONE!*
This Porsche + Chris = unbeatable 👍
