Gardner Douglas T70 on the Nordschleife Nurburgring.

[@xritaly]

It's the most powerful version of the GD T70, it goes from 150 to 300 faster than what it takes to go from 0 to 150 (wheels skidding). Brutal machine, Margutti, who imported and sells the GD in Italy is a really skilled driver...with a lot of cold blood of course!

[@rafordy]

The levels of grip are stunning

[@georgeflutey5925]

Holy crap, that guys one hell of a driver. This could be the best driving clip on you tube.(In this class of car)

[@davefloyd9443]

Hehe agreed. Wanna see the best bike clip? kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3O9lIZ_fc-ogZY

[@march11stoneytony]

What a dream it was to watch this lap! Rarely did he ease off the throttle when faced with white-knuckle slides!

[@craigpennington1251]

Man this thing eats Porches for breakfast. That car is blindingly fast. Outstanding driving a wild beast of a car.

[@steves8014]

Never have I watched an incar and been more worried about the driver's life. He is amazing.

[@MarMPB]

Amazing car and driving skills! I found the GD T70 just the other day, looking for top Shelby Cobra replicas. Since then I watched every video about them that I could find. I never saw another car overtake Porsches GT3 like they were standing still like that!😮

[@goropeza101]

This GD T70 is Sick quick! It just blows the doors off everything! I saw 320kph or 200mph several times! Great driving by Dario Margutti! I bet he ran a lap time under 7minutes! I bet that car could set a lap record on Top Gear as well!

[@schou1170]

That driver is an absolute beast!! ❤❤

[@filovis]

I've been on that car with Dario... and I can guarantee the speedometer is not fictious. It's the effect of 720hp on 900 kilos. Basically the same power/weight ratio as a Ferrari FXX with no controls. You need some balls to get in the driver seat... and some spare pants to be in the passenger one!! ;-)

[@robertgallacher7214]

The driver (and any passenger brave enough to get in the car) deserves a standing ovation for that lap.

[@UkraineGirlsandMore]

Great controlled driving

[@myZisfantastic]

Don't know what is the most awesome, the car or the driving skill? May be both

[@chrismoody1342]

A family acquaintance owned a raced this car in SCCA in the late 60’s and early 70’s. Thing was an absolute beast. In a hour race on 1.9 mile track he lapped the entire field twice.

[@Colinpowderfinger]

Brilliant footage, amazing craftmanship go into cars, thanks for sharing .

[@oldcaferacer]

way too kool had it sideways and still kept the boot into it bloody good driver t70 koolest car around

[@hertzer2000]

The wife asked me why anyone would ever want to drive that fast. I got a lawyer.

[@100holistic]

Smart move.

[@angelomelis9464]

Dario Margutti.. excellent driver

[@MrDondiego2000]

The Porsches and M3 look like ford fiestas, that's a fuckin' humiliation ! I love it !

[@arthusthefirst]

One of the 10 best videos i've ever seen !! One of the best 10 cars i've ever heard about !! Congratulations to the "virtuose" ;)

[@therealfoggy2826]

You're right. They said that max speed was 177mph...a little lower than 300kpk, but not so much! ( found an article on pistonheads! )

[@idin1976]

Beautiful machine. Looks like a real handful.

[@inlineschool]

I have got a hardon!!!!! That was playstation quick....wow what a car what a driver.... I also now know what I was for xmas...

[@strud34]

yes it over takes cars amazingly fast. great drive

[@colin5577]

Car looks very stable for something so light and powerful, and the mid-range punch looks astounding. Unreal. Looks like it should get around B2G faster than the 7:27 or so than it did, so not sure what's going on there because it was bloody well driven.

[@iron567]

woulda been faster but it looks geared to 300 max. more aero wouldnt hurt it any

[@fleetwoodray]

Stays "glued" to the road especially into and out of those curves! Im guessing it's the Chevy LS7 or the LS9 version with supercharger. A perfect match.

[@josephfreeman3816]

The LS7 would work. But imm pretty sure it's a Chevy 5 liter putting out over 500 hp. As for the LS 9 it's not a serious track engine. Can't dump the heat from the supercharger for long. Car goes into limp mode or toasts it's engine.

[@martinmiessler5025]

This Car is Giftig 🏁

[@welcometohudson2828]

Beautiful

[@Gennexige]

Spettacolo! Ti ho visto a Imola davvero stupenda.....Complimenti per auto e guida gran manico ad avercelo un giorno!!

[@stilldajoker]

a land rocket with a rudder .... holy crap!

[@Schnorbitz]

That is a monster of a car

[@maurotodographics2321]

best video on youtube !!! AMAZING !!!1

[@markheather1488]

Clean drive. Nice.

[@MickiDracing]

oh man that sound!!

[@ryangarritty9761]

If I had to drive that T70 at ten tenths round the 'Ring, I'd need to pit for a fresh pair of overalls after every lap.

[@Slowekistan]

Impressive "Speedometer"...

[@vikingoutlaw9]

Damn that car is hellishly FAST‼️🔥💀

[@jamescampbell7780]

Brave driving!

[@sidewayssam]

He can drive cant he! awesome....would love a go in that.

[@Belgian-Motorsport]

Damn that car is quick O_O What happened at 4:00 ?

[@stoneeh]

Speedo seems 20-30% too fast. This run is mighty impressive, but with speeds like those indicated on the speedo, he would have done the lap a lot faster than 7:50

[@nicomeier8098]

You think? in august 2009 a lap record was set by a Radical SR8 LM at 6:48:28. The RTadical had a top speed of a mere 273 k/h. . It's not the top speed, it's the braking and cornering that do it.

[@automotiveaffairsshorts]

My kinda madness… love it 😍

[@andrecapella370]

A long track, Riverside was my longest!

[@billiebones62]

That has to be the longest straightaway of any race course in the world!

[@joaoa13portugal]

Before the 2 chicanes, Le Mans used to have the longest straight in the world, i think around 6km, not sure, though. But nothing beats going downhill and uphill with that beautiful scenery. Most beautiful race track in the world without a doubt

[@crazysofast7521]

What a monster !

[@86Sebring]

That's KMH, kilometers per hour, doofus Insane acceleration, what a sound, I love it

[@newsmanbluesman]

wheel check at 6'29 - my word - and is this a 7 litre car..is that a nascar motor as some like the rondeau have mounted?

[@adow77]

Falcon hell. That's on the ragged edge. No quarter!

[@madmamo]

che coraggio. e che manico. complimenti!

[@monkey123abc]

other cars seem still !

[@goropeza101]

What kind of lap time could have been achieved if there was no traffic?

[@iron567]

seems kinda heavy in the rear end. wonderful looking kit though.

[@TheCanky]

holy shit this thing is fast

[@barketero]

A fast and fantastic lap but that speedo needs a re-calibration......Please ! Wehrseifen and Karroussell at 100km/h ? Please, please. At that speeds lap should be under 7 mins. and not around 8mins. Nice lap anyway......and nice car.

[@cescone999]

grandissimo darEo ! ! ! che roba ! ! ! -siscos-

[@frankirvine316]

Boogies alright ✅ Car and driver👍

[@bnmcmhn]

speedo is a little generous, but the car lacks down force

[@MrSpike13]

7:90?

[@8871]

La vieja escuela .Muy bueno

[@tomast9034]

balls of steel :)

[@R-R-R-R-R]

@MVdesign Back wheels blocked, cause he shifted to fast Motorbremskraft brachte die Hinterräder zum blockieren!

[@mrchillout1989]

was ist das für ne beschleunigung alter schwede, ist die tachonadel kapputt oder was? mfg

[@tms372]

Didn't say what his time was on this great lap.

[@rud1693]

. . . . toller sound

[@ginodelchiosco]

ti puzza la vita! grande!

[@jonathantarpey1158]

whos the driver.....

[@pacocarrion7869]

This car I am sure that it can do under 7min the lap record

[@be4tb0x]

Hitting 290 at the gantry? HELLAFAST

[@20zollPinocchio]

@mrchillout1989 nee der hat richtig Hubraum und wiegt bestimmt nix.... der hatte mal ordentlich Spass!!

[@larryollie]

crazy

[@Unclepear40]

Muahuahauhau il mio PAZZO Cugino ! :) Un giorno ti sfiderò con la mia Polo TDI ;)

[@pivkaaa]

dear youtube, if your servers cant handle this vid, i see no reason for your future existence.. had you not bothered me with some stupid commercial, i wouldnt complain ;)

[@Kneedragon1962]

It reminds me of a big sports bike. The way it handles and corners are good enough, in the ballpark, but the way it demolishes the straight bits is hair raising... Say T70 and you think historic car, but that thing is quick...

[@hrc1966]

Speedo needs recalibrating!

[@burns985]

I think the speedo lies a bit. The M3 E46 just went out of corner and later on he was going around 230-240 ? hmm..

[@tigrerusso]

Faster than Felipe Massa on his Ferrari F1 ejejejejejejee

[@JulianPerry]

Nice. Why feature the speedo though when the readings are clearly completely fictitious?

[@86Sebring]

7:90 that is pretty fast

[@skunksrus007]

It must look like a missile approaching in your rear view mirror.. lol

[@arverneexpatrie2463]

7 min 50 sec

[@jonathantrauner5731]

OK keyboard drivers , the reason the speedo is fast is because in about 30% of the video the rear wheels are spinning faster than the car is moving. Read burnout to simplify things. This is not a car that you can just get in and mash the loud pedal. Must of you guys would spin letting the clutch out......

[@rafordy]

Who is driving, as its clearly a pro

[@RobyHP]

O.O

[@codystafford]

@newsmanbluesman Nascar is 5.7 give or take a .L

[@superbrit3845]

What a facking animal this car is.................The driver must have balls the size of melons to wrestle this thing around the track at that speed with little or no aero.

[@silvestrofly]

Maledetto come ti invidiooooooooooooooo!....sia l'atterzzo che il manico!...ma anche la scelta imprenditorale. Peccato che sono etero! aaahhhahahhaa

[@TheRoguelement]

This guy has nuts the size of King Kong's .. He is flat out 300klmts in the spider the open top blaster .. .. This car has some kind of trick rubber to stick to the track like that ...

[@fr4gl3]

Satan stuff.
