These videos are awesome and make me miss the racing in GTC1!

Many of the cars you se are in the US. The lead car is John Colasante's car (Kattus car). Dan Curry's car is seen many times (Macsource car with pink accents). Donna Amico's car is in there (white car with green bumpers). My car is there (Rubystone car with big yellow arrow) at 0:10, 0:46 and can be seen going thru the chicane at 6:39. I didn't see Charlie Boyer's car (white car with flags) but it should be in there somewhere.

The 964 cups are still about the coolest car out there IMO. Still relatively simple, but they can be very fast if driven hard.

Good thing those 964's were still pretty high and soft. A modern Cup would have shed it's splitters the first off and been done. Something lost there! You can't drive that way anymore in a modern car. Fantastic car control when over the limit!

Great video with a lot of wheels in the air. Yes, those suspensions look quite soft.
