2024 Porsche 963 Hybrid LMDh start up, pit-exit procedure *switch from electric to V8 engine sounds*

[@EndeavorsDnB]

The aero on these monster’s is immaculately done!

[@idreessahadat3002]

It'd be great to see porsche at the top of lmdh podium at LeMans.

[@atomev8]

This comment aged like fiiiiine wine 😂

[@WEC_Connoiseur]

This really aged perfectly

[@robertlevasseur6843]

It is so interesting to see how the undercarriage aero organizes the spray when the car is moving in the wet.

[@BURNSB1000]

Tech + HP = FAST - Amazing engineering, support team and design all aspects of the final project were magnificent

[@rashaddow]

Still cant top the sound of the cadillac but love this too.🎉

[@bbboywaxr]

Holy fuck 🤯. Gold Livery almost made me bust

[@sensualeye]

Miller Beer livery!

[@nicholasboes8592]

​@@sensualeyeIf only lol. That's just Hertz Team JOTA.

[@24HourRealtySanDiego]

Whoa that is so cool

[@grahamnewton4409]

Has the sound of a North Star Caddy!

[@hectorherbert6585]

that engine view & top off at 0.53...

[@Hyper_drive214]

I wanna know when it’s safe and not safe to touch those cars. I saw the BMW LMDH car and it had a little green tag on the roof saying the car was discharged and safe. I briefly spoke to one of the guys with BMW and he said because of the high voltage when the car is live you can’t touch it unless your wearing specific clothing.

[@rickrolled7930]

Yes because of the hybrid. It has to be worked around carefully.

[@claudiochanganaqui2048]

Miss the 2.0l v4 sound...😔

[@lorenzsabbaer7725]

i miss v12!

[@claudiochanganaqui2048]

@@lorenzsabbaer7725 Well,we all miss the legendary v10 & v12 engines too...🔥

I miss the Audi V10 and V12 TDI

It sounds like shit, wdym?

[@rickrolled7930]

Sounds similar

[@gafrers]

Awesome

[@b777emirates]

Car just sounds like a rc car

[@gabrielbarcellos1036]

Como eu queria que o Mission X tivesse pelo menos esse motor, totalmente elétrico é maldade demais

[@haryosoo]

I wonder how it could produce such different noise to other flat-plane turbo V8s like BMW's or Lambo's; the 963 sounds more grunty rather than raspy.

[@alistairfannell6694]

Don’t know but I wish V8 engines could sound like this 😊

[@pvjunior]

the porsche sounds way more aggressive than the bmw and lambo

[@Foiiiii1]

Why do the colour of the headlights change? What does each colour mean?

[@ruzgarakgul2051]

It’s for identification

[@p0schti]

And as far as I know, the headlights only shine in color as opposed to white when they're in the pits/the pit limiter is on. But as said, I don't know for 100%

[@4rdF1Hunny]

Is this Seb?!

[@bestopinion9257]

Not even a flat 6? This is Penske VW with Porsche styling.

[@rickrolled7930]

The only thing that annoys me about this hypercar class is how slow they are. They had to make lmp2s tractors so they wouldn't be faster than wec's "top class"

[@macstone9719]

One of the Sebastian Vettel test sessions? He would be awsome for Le Mans.

[@Halliday57]

No he was testing at Aragon in Spain

[@RafaelOliveiraBR]

How can a V8 still sounds a liitle like a pure B6?

[@phillyphil1513]

A: high efficiency hot V turbos. much like heat sound is also a form of energy, so by virtue of the process of converting the spent exhaust gases into boost, they act like mufflers and kill the sound. this speaks to what everybody hates about the groaning 6's that replaced the NA V8's and V10's in F1.

[@RafaelOliveiraBR]

@@phillyphil1513 Thank you for the explanation, sir.

[@rickrolled7930]

​@@phillyphil1513 does it have anything to do with the positioning of the turbos? I don't really think it matters if it's a hot or a cold v, turbos will still muffle.

[@phillyphil1513]

@@rickrolled7930 Q: does it have anything to do with the positioning of the turbos? A: yes. re: "I don't really think it matters if it's a hot or a cold v, turbos will still muffle." correct, however the closer you locate the turbo to the hottest point of the exhaust gases, the greater the potential sound attenuation will be ie, you're increasing the efficiency of the set up which is the original idea behind the "Hot-V". notice the new TT ZR1 for 2025 technically doesn't use a "Hot-V" but the overall shortened path for the charge air nevertheless ROBS much of the Z06/LT6 sound that has quickly formed that engine's character being a new design only 2 years old... of course (thanks to the last 25 years of Diesel development) the Aerodynamics, Thermodynamics, Blade Design, etc of the internals, the Turbo Charger itself is the model of "efficiency" regardless of where it's located (which is a limited choice anyway).

[@Pasha8204]

No 4k

[@kimwarfield1587]

It’s the same thing as F1, no sound. I want to hear a race car scream or rumble. Nothing like 333SP, 512M, 787B, T70, etc.

[@tstaccount8347]

Have you seen this things in person? These make the track rumble, it’s just poor audio quality. Try looking up a binaural audio video and watching it with headphones

[@kimwarfield1587]

@@tstaccount8347 I know the V8 does. If you ever go to a classic race you will experience the difference. I grew up listening to Indy car and Can An cars. I also experienced racing of all types from 1966 to to present.

[@ThatMerlinsClaw]

@@kimwarfield1587Just move on dude, it's shouldn't be this hard, you're just blinded by the nostalgia of the cars in the 60's.

[@kimwarfield1587]

[@rickrolled7930]

​@@ThatMerlinsClawyeah definetley. Every mention to the past (which btw, is our past as motorsport fans) is nostalgia. Go to a historic and a modern race, see which one is louder.

[@Андрей-е2х2д]

What the other Hypercar competitors waiting for? Porsche at the start of 1 official free practice will have like month of tests, and the others will arrive with almost no data. It's Ferrari home race, but they aren't even here, while Porsche gathering as much as possible data to win.

[@ReXzz]

Ferrari was there already, Cadillac was there already, maybe the others were there as well. We don't know.

[@michaeljohn1160]

Remember. Tom Brady in involved with hertz/jota. His name is on the side of the rear wing.

Looks cool! Sounds horrible.

Well… it ain’t no Cadi but it’s okey

[@MrBrettrx7]

The car is awesome but the sound is not

[@Skydrag.V60]

Sounds just like the 918 bc it uses an engine developed from that car. I love it

[@bluesky6361]

Computers on wheels. Bring back real race cars, the Fords, Ferraris, and Porsches from the 60's and 70's. ❤
