Drifting my new 992 GT3 Porsche track car

[@camd3041]

Found myself getting quite emotional watching this. Seeing someone else living my dream, not coming from jealousy.. just happy. It sounds stunning never mind how much pace it holds.

[@unblasted7905]

i hope u achieve ur dreams asap!!

[@jafaralmusawi8680]

It’s motivating

[@jianipierre5040]

It’s never too late to chase a dream

[@WorldofHHS]

True happiness and motivation is when you're happy for others success

[@AlistairClark]

WHAT A DAY! From my perspective, they share an amazing amount of DNA, but do it so differently. Watching the 992 in the corners with the double wishbone front is fascinating to watch, it doesn't behave like my bouncy 996 at all. So similar, so different. I love them both.

[@stuartsmith5154]

So cool seeing this get “used” properly on track and also on road - great video driftworks !

[@carson2000_]

That shot of the 996 drifting, being chased by a drifting 992, being chased by a drifting Lotus was a really cool one.

[@PixelVogue]

Phil looks like he is a sunday drive, Al looks like he's fighting a grizzly bear lol

[@22Wook]

The rear shot of the powerslide with the Lotus was pretty eye-catching!

[@arthurXIII]

Don't think I've seen a happier GT3 driver! Wishing you more joyful miles and laps!

[@graememurray2603]

Love seeing a car like this actually being used as it was intended to be!

[@Matty.Hill_87]

That shot of the 2 porsche's and a lotus sliding out of that corner was beautiful

[@Andrew4181975]

Wow, Phil is just living the life. Imagine buying a brand new GT3 , and a few weeks later doing a track day to burn off the tires that you didn't like that it came standard with. That is truly , to use a way overused term, EPIC. You are one helluva driver , Phil. This is what everyone should do with their brand new sport/super/hypercar to be able to get a real feel for what it is capable of, Luv it!

[@JordieMotive97]

Absolutely loved this video, Phil! Something about watching 2 friends sticking together while doing track time, taking each other out, skidding together and all the cool angles in this video, absolute masterpiece. Thanks for sharing!

[@driftworks]

Glad you enjoyed it! 👍

[@EpicTrauma]

Respect to the 996 manual driver, he can really pedal that old girl! 🤘

[@davidjohnrees]

I love It when a Driftworks video says, "then things start to escalate."

[@richardbeaumont5358]

Wonderful car Phil and muchas respecto for ragging the living scheisse out of it on track. For me though the Mezger soundtrack and constant unadulterated driver input to keep the wonderful 996 chassis in check highlights the 911 apex predator in its prime. I think it's clear for all who was having the most fun in this battle. This takes nothing away from the fact that the latest gen GT3 is a serious weapon and I hope to see more of your antics in the near future ;)

[@richardbeaumont5358]

@CanisMalus 996 is living the life in the Austrian Alps and the Alfa likewise but in St. Tropez. I'm now a little further south in the region of Murcia Spain. Still 20.C+ here in November so no complaints ;)

[@lewiselliott9624]

wow you can really see the difference between the onboards, even though the 996 is a very capable car it looks like Al is driving a bus in comparison, the inputs are massive, 992 is so direct and planted, what a machine and great video!

[@wadewilson4702]

Actually I've gotta add, that 996 GT3 still sounds epic. The induction 🤤🤤

[@SCOOTSUPERCARS]

fantastic video! Was great to capture the power slides, proper boss😎

[@driftworks]

Thanks again for the footage dude. It made the video 🙏

[@wadewilson4702]

So cool to see someone really enjoy their GT3. I can only live my GT3 dream vicariously through your videos. Epic cars. The want is strong. Thank you Phil.

[@driftmonkey3646]

Bloody love watching you guys have fun on track and in cars that cost this much, fair F ing play 👏🏻

[@Graemedixon80]

Al and his awesome car collection should be in more videos

[@easyerc2226]

Couldn't be happier for you, the utter enjoyment you got from that was on another level, just shows how special those cars really are

[@sats7819]

That 996 held up very well

[@weeaunsim4320]

Nothing beats technology, old one skittish, wobbly, new one stable, planted, not a single sight of uncontrollable behaviour, & just pulling away, what a car the 992gt3, awesome video👏

[@JJJinez]

16:12 ... OMG!!!!!!!! NEED A WALLPAPER OF THAT MOMENT! love it!!

[@jogrobler]

How cool was that Exige playing along at the end?! AWesome video and very happy for you and your new purchase mate. Well done and well deserved.

[@Retrobeemer]

I thought the same. Great to see such fun being had.

[@jogrobler]

@@Retrobeemer MATE! Do you still have the e34 535?? I've got a '90 535iM I'm hoping to turbo. Always good seeing another e34 enthusiast out in the wild.

[@Retrobeemer]

@@jogrobler I do, yes. I only bought it a couple of months back but have had 02's, e21, e30, e12, e28, e23 etc for years. I don't really like modern stuff. My e34 is silver with black leather, manual, LSD etc on staggered Azev 17's.

[@gt3nyc]

Absolutely LOVE this. Major congratulations you can tell the tires aren’t quite up to it based on the sawing a lil bit at the wheel but blimey you both look quick! Major congrats again

[@jackmalpass9968]

Was great fun seeing you and Al slide the porsches round together, I have some great footage just before Starkeys

[@gwynn1104]

Forbidden Exige though 😍

[@Ti22Vehicleservices]

my biggest takeaway from this video is how damn fast is that combo of Al and his 996!!

[@zeus.edwards2662]

love to see these cars being used for what they were built for, this was awesome guys. keep it up

[@driftworks]

Thanks! Will do!

[@iiNNeX]

Love to see these used as intended instead of being some ornament in a rich guy's multi car garage... Lovely car mate, keep it up :)

[@hughconsitt9526]

The mechanical/aero grip through Craners is giving me trouser tent

[@kaivaksdal]

Nice lapping there. You can really see the advances Porsche have made between the two models.

[@TheJkghfg]

I love the fact that a customer car with a little over break-in mileage is already being thrashed on track.

[@ClassicSam.]

Once a drifter always a drifter!

[@timwilliams2343]

Great to see a properly driven GT3, whether its the 996 or the 992, they are things of wonder.

[@davidmarney1485]

Nice to see the car getting used how it should be and not just parked in garage all it live 👍

[@doubletee4391]

It renews my faith in people to see you use that super expensive car for what it was made for and then push it more. Good on you. I really liked how the lotus joins in at the end. Good car person stuff right there.

[@saltlake6577]

Looking forward to the delivery of my 992 GT3 in February 2022 in Switzerland. Have a great day and safe travels.

[@smf1384]

A GT3 used as intended. best car on sale at the moment. great vid

[@driftworks]

Cheers

[@TheXJRMAN]

wow, a 911 that goes where you point it! that's over 50 years of development, so cool they still make it.

[@tariqpuru5471]

Iconic scene. 2 gt3s sideways in one shot perfect

[@driftworks]

Thanks 👍

[@salem99099]

Porsche is So Happy that you are tracking your GT3 because this is the purpose why it was made.

[@ibrahimz]

He has been ripping that 996 on track for 9 years!! Those porsches are built for life 😍

[@driftworks]

Yep, and pretty much driving it like this. GT3's are the pinnacle of automotive engineering.

[@Braveheart7914-idfl]

Wow thanks guys for sharing what looked like an epic memorable fun day the cars all drifting together was poetry in motion unreal can’t stop smiling 😉👏👏👏👏

[@augustortiz]

That man is driving the shit out of that 996.

[@davidblackwell7958]

How can you fit you balls in that seat ! Absolute respect, was never going to be a garage queen with you but ##me…. That shot of three cars power sliding out of the corner was awesome 👍🍻

[@Neale78]

Well worth the wait then. Beautiful GT3, the progression is evident.

[@vanwandererx852]

Phil you are living the dream man!you have almost all of the hero cars in your garage.

[@v9photoworks700]

That 996 is a beauty......992's not bad either!

[@sportzntouring]

That looked and sounded amazing! Your reaction after the first session said it all 🤙

[@css172]

16:10 *poetry in motion*

[@brad7425]

This is how gt3 should be driven. You are brave man. It is easy to say than to do it. I mean I have gt3 but never drive it on track.

[@MrT70chris]

Awesome car, expertly driven, great video. Nice to see someone actually thrashing the spuds off a car like that rather than it festering in a "collection"... Enjoy!

[@SamuraiRyosuke]

From drifting to now driving a dream car and many others... I salute you sir.

[@meteormedia7021]

That's Porsche, yo. You think, now they've done it, the 911 can't possibly get any better. And then the next version comes out and they improved EVERYTHING once again.

[@roadmantop3769]

I’m so glad you scored this car... it’s gone to a proper don that is sharing it with our asses 🔥🤛

[@quest8795]

Phil's finally drifting again! Absolutely sick car, the downforce it generates has a huge effect

[@stuf3804]

Great footage - what a pair of weapons (cars), very jealous of you car and driving skill

[@AmanJandu]

That shot of the 3 drifting is f*cking epic!

[@peterroberts9835]

The 992 looks incredible! But fairplay to the old 996 holding its own. Not doing bad for a 20yr old manual car chasing a current PDK. Looks the biz on those LM's too!

[@mrmoss149]

Brilliant weather for a track day

[@dante_lsx]

That car is just perfection 😍, and love that you drive it how it was designed to be driven 💪🏼 major respect from a huge fan of Driftworks 🔥

[@driftworks]

Thank you 🙌

[@joanafidalgo6610]

This is now my favourite video of the internets.

[@ElegantMessTechPC]

That looked exhilarating and terrifying at the same time! Porsche really does an amazing job, and huge congrats!

[@ScramTek]

You’re both obviously talented drivers. Quite surprised at how much faster you both were than everyone else on the track. Even with other cars that I’d have imagined would be quicker even with an average driver.

[@tidysampler585]

Now that’s how you treat a new car 😃 Especially a 992 on track 🔥 Excellent to watch..

[@Shifty_Malone]

Oversteer on the rear axle only, after the apex is powersliding. Oversteer on the rear axle with simultaneous understeer on the front axle is drifting. You did a little of both.

[@grahamheathman7383]

Thank you for the content look like you was having fun 992GT3 engineering piece of art.

[@GeesDrive]

Just awesome, kudos to the Lotus too. Still not seen the new GT3 in the flesh but it looks ace.

[@Matty.Hill_87]

Considering the cars you've driven/own, for a car to impress you that much it must be pretty special

[@abdi862]

In my opinion THIS model and colour combo is THE sexiest 911 EVER even if its 20 years old I will still one day hopefully be able to afford THIS spec car

[@jamesf8864]

At 5:31, did I hear something I've never heard before? It almost sounded like the car allowed you to downshift too early, but automatically prevented an over-rev by slipping the clutches until the revs were low enough to engage fully. Is that right?? If so, what a feature!! Cracking to see you enjoy the car so much!

[@ponanikhoza1934]

Car blokes having fun. Thanks for sharing.

[@rockyroad1780]

Amazing cars, great driving on a fantastic track and people are moaning why you didn’t tick a particular optional extra on your car. Unreal. Congrats for using the cars properly, and well done on the Exige having a go as well - they are not easy cars to skid!

[@gmax876]

The GT3 is the only car I care about!

[@driftworks]

You need to expand your horizons then 👍

[@gmax876]

@@driftworks Name a more complete high performance car that can match a GT3 from the factory for around the same price? Any real car enthusiast comes right back to Porsche.

[@driftworks]

AMG GT-R aside, I'm with you (obviously as I own two). But I'm interested in many other cars.

[@gmax876]

@@driftworks Don't get me wrong. I know other cars exist, once you drive a GT3 on track, your perspective narrows a bit.

[@Boatlife1964]

Brilliant first track day in the new car…wished I was there to witness it..

[@DamosJourney]

Just pure fun! Absolutely epic!!!!!!!!

[@hoonaticbloggs5402]

Inspiring me to book a track day, I haven’t been for a while, just got the car set up on haltech ready to rock

[@nylaxd1223]

MAN AWESOME DUDE, SAW THE VIDEO WHEN YOU PICKED THAT CAR UP AT THE DEALER, I THINK I JUST SAW IT LAST WEEK BUT MAN YOU HAVE GOT SOME BALLS, I DONT HAVE THE COURAGE YOU DONT GET THAT BRAND NEW GORGEOUS CAR OUT ON THE TRACK LIKE THAT LIKE ITS SOME 10 YEARS OLD CAR , WOW, CRAZY MAN, ENJOY IT, SO SAD TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED TO THE M3 SINCE I HAD AN ORIGINAL M3 MYSELF EXTREMELY MODIFIED, HOPE YOU FIX THAT E30 M3 UP QUICK!!! AND THAT LAMBO LOOKS MEAN MY BROTHER, YOU DEFINITELY HAVE A GREAT SENSE OF STYLE WHEN IT COMES TO CARS, MUCH LOVE FROM NYC

[@be4tb0x]

oh boy mr. clark can wheel the 996. fun to watch!

[@williamholmes9129]

The in car fottage down craner curves looked great so fast and the way it made ground on other cars was like watching something off Gran Turismo 👍😎

[@bobgees793]

Really enjoyed watching this. You pair have amazing skills. That GT3 is 👌

Epic shots at the end with the Lotus

[@e30aly64]

Already know this will be a banger 😂

[@taforth]

Love the honesty in your first impressions comments - just what the doctor ordered 👏! Enjoy 👍

[@jamestaylor4418]

Pls do all of this again with that 996 that looked like a ton of fun!! And hopefully next time you guys can put on some slicks and see what the cars can really do

[@adam4CB]

Brilliant stuff. Congratulations! Think this might be the moment 996 prices start skyrocketing and it’s all Als fault 😂

[@basher1285]

What a freaking video! I was smiling all the way through it! Good skills! Great cars.😎👍🏼

[@mrgdc7120]

Best car review ever drive the nuts off it instead of these other Nancy KZbinrs that review a drivers car in a clean well lit garage well done car is awesome

[@driftworks]

Thanks man 👍

[@Mark-oc1qo]

Great driving, I also really enjoyed seeing your baby driving out of the dealership in the last video, the joy was priceless! Porsches are amazing machines, I daily drive mine in San Francisco and rag it out at the track with zero problems. Great machines, a true utility vehicle :) It's not 2022 yet. However, I wish you, your family, and your buisness nothing but good things for the coming year! @driftworks

[@driftworks]

Thanks Mark 👍

[@niroshnalenthiran9308]

[@Kortec_Racing]

what an amazing day, thanks for the content. enjoyed it alot!

[@Michael-yz4mc]

All black is just wow

[@augustortiz]

Phil your 992 needs a JCR porsche exhaust. Those guys make it sound like an RSR.

[@driftworks]

The car is quite loud as standard. I have a loud exhaust on my 997 and it causes lots of problems on trackdays. Even at Spa which is very noise friendly.

[@zzkamikazezz]

Love it! Seeing that 996 dancing 👌🏼

[@geoffreybutterfield4162]

Car looks like it drives savagely (if that’s a word) well!
