991 Turbo review by ilovecars

One of the better review vids. The footage of the nice dark blue metallic 991 is great.
You don't need to understand german since they're just talking light weight stuff which is known by everyone already...

Walter Röhrl driving a 991 Turbo

I didn't feel like watching or posting any "Walter Röhrl drives the 991 Turbo" videos - to much of a show I thought. Then today I still watched the following vid - his facial expression starting at 09:03 is quite amazing... fully concentrated, a true car enthusiast.

nothing new

Hey everyone,
In the stats I noticed that some of you are actually revisiting this tiny blog. Let me tell you, it's a bit frustrating to report, that I didn't find anything new worth posting the last few days.
I'll keep looking...  Meanwhile you might want to check autogespot.
Cheers, Tom

918 Spyder Nordschleife record time

Since it has been announced, that some of the developments done for the 918 Spyder might arrive in the 911 sometime, the car is certainly of interest to all Turbo likers.
Over a year ago Porsche was projecting a Nordschleife lap time of 07:15. Meanwhile they raised the car's power to a combined output of unbelievable 887 bhp (608hp from the 4.6l V8).


The Spyder now lapped the Nordschleife in 06:57! Astonishing. Porsche has released two videos to document the accomplishment. Walter Röhrl, Porsche test driver Timo Kluck and Porsche factory driver Marc Lieb all drove lap times below 07:00, but it was Marc Lieb setting the 06:57 record time.
Also check out the list of Nordschleife lap times @ wikipedia.

The McLaren P1 is rumored to have completed the lap in 07:04.

amazingly steady, the lapping vid is an enjoyable watch:

Chris Harris driving Ferrari F40

What's this post doing here? Well we've read about the annoying complications between Harris and Ferrari which led to him not testing the new models anymore.
Now this video is all about car enthusiasm packed into good footage, never mind the brand.

The F40 with it's 2.9l turbo charged 500 PS, weighing just 1100kg ... a true sports car legend.
Sometimes it's just good to get inspiration from the past. Enjoy...
