KW Variante 3 Suspension. camera change at Mutkurve and Pfanzgarten due to traffic. Mixture between the 8th and 11th round at Nordschleife in real car. I have learned the track at Playstation GT5.
I stand corrected. I simply ment that he is clearly capable and it was an entertaining film instead of searching for faults.

8:01.36. This car also seems to be fairly stock. He has done sub eights also. That's impressive for a car designed in the early 80. I would love to see what a properly set up 951 could do in the right hands!

I love that video! He is really on the limit. Impressive as you say

The driver knows his car really well - he's found that fine nuance between losing time with ragged over-driving versus leaving some performance on the table - great driving!

Thank you for posting. We would all love to see more of these posts rather than the usual 951 "My car has been on the garage floor in 10,000 pieces for the last five years but one day I plan to make it a 600 hp monster" stuff which generally clogs these boards.

If you look at the 964 board there's generally far more driving & less messing around with unroadworthy wrecks than are to be found here.

Great to see a fast 951 in action!
