great video but clearly that guy was driving like his life depended on it. The 997..not so much.

Hi, that´s a 997 MkII GT3, the 3.8. No RS, no 4.0 and by the way mine
Dude, you are really pushing your car to the edge. How you drive on the Nordschleife I do not risk even on much safer tracks. Big respect.
Anyway, you could have the video longer, I enjoyed seeing you cornering afterwards 

Id love to rip around in that 993 though.

he almost lost it right after passing the gt3 and then about 20 secs later he just caught a slide in time. That 993 needs some safety gear if he is driving there like that!

His videos are pretty awesome (always sideways) but his car is a C4, so kinda crazy how he barely has any traction half the time.

Really impressive driving, but jesus I would not want to be in that car with him. He's clearly a semi-professional driver at least but far too dangerous. Nice find! Thanks for sharing. Don't be driving like that this summer!!

He's got a bunch of vids, and he rips up the track in all of them. He definitely knows the limits of his car, and stays right at the limit all the time. Very impressive to see.

one of my favourite vids, guy thoroughly enjoys and 'knows' his car, in the groove.
It's too bad all 911's are getting so valuable/costly, they are really fun to drive at/past the limit..
