Porche is definitely pulling harder but that civic eats it up in the corners...very calm and cool drive under such pressure..both of you's..excellent skills..

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you very much 😊🙏 was a nice lap and challenging to stay behind the Porsche, in the corners the Civic is a beast 🚀😄

Manejo tranquilo? Por dos veces casi se van a la mierda por querer seguir al porsche, los dos andaban con el pantalón manchado

[@swansmeister]

doubt a cayman has worse corner capability's than a fwd car, I have a base 718 with mods and can tell you I had a lotus also and it's on that lvl, it's all about the driver .

[@2391jessie]

Yes, FK8 appears faster in sweepers due to wider track (& 718S suspension is more softer/more road biased & has a narrower track

Fantastic driving man, those civics are clearly no joke. Excellent driving skills.

The Porsche driver missed almost all his apexes. This is a driver issue not a car issue. Put a race driver in both cars and the times would speak for themselves. The Porsche is a better car.

[@Jugg215]

@@wowsdrawkcab the civic type r has held the record there in their class for awhile. Porsche should always beat Honda according to the gatekeepers but where I live none of the Porsche drivers ever beat me in autocross and those guys can drive. Maybe Porsche isnt as superior as you think.

[@sharedknowledge6640]

The Germans are getting their ass handed to them in so many ways. Many much less expensive cars are beating some of Germany’s “finest” around their own ring. Even a Kia EV6 GT SUV can beat most any German vehicle in objective tests including many German vehicles that are 2X and 3X the price. There’s a long list of less expensive and better engineered vehicles that shame the Germans from other countries like the Z06 C8 Corvette, Tesla Plaid, and so many more. The Germans have lost their way.

[@dlombana161]

Nice work boss. It's always fun to mix it up with cars that are quicker on paper, definitely jealous of the diversity of cars you see out there. Most of my track days I'm surrounded by Corvettes and Miatas with a few surprises here and there.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

[@corone2018]

It’s a big achievement by Honda but it’s no surprise they make amazing engines and solid cars

[@williewade1]

I have driven several of the last generation Mitsu Evo's, and quite a few of the Type R's. The Type R is more Evo than the Evo ever was, especially in the handling. It is amazing what Honda has done with that FWD car, for it to handle so dam well. Even getting into the Civic, the deep seat bolsters are a reminder of the Recaro's in the Evo. Another great handling car, like being on a rail is the current gen NSX, another Honda, that the Type R can go toe to toe with in the handling department. Have driven ton's of Audi's as well, and the Quattro is fantastic, but it does not have a dam thing on Acura's SH-AWD, of which, I have seat time in every model with that setup, and they are all superb. Honda/Acura needs better brakes, as they tend to fade quite a bit. I hope the new Type R handles even better. If it does, nothing else in that category can touch it. The driver of the Cayman should have been able to run away, but, it is a testament to the great handling and driving of the Type R, especially in the corners, that kept that from occurring. I think he may have been able to pass him a few times, but got blocked.

[@captainminecraftist]

this was the car I wanted to get in high school. Unfortunatly ive been in so many fwd economy cars that im itching for a drift capable car like an m240i out of college. Riden in one though they have great grip!

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you 😊👍 There are a couple of rules like only passing on the left, etc. (you find them on the official Nurburgring homepage) but also some etiquette like twinkle on right to show the car behind to pass or in general moving to the right if you have quicker cars in the back 😀 You will see the flow of the car in front of you when to pass or not, it’s rarely an issue, in case of doubt just wait a few curves to pass 💨 Enjoy the Nordschleife, it’s the best track in the world and a lot of fun 😆👍👋

Just marvelous, that's all my mind can think after watching this awesome lap.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you for that 😊👍

[@peterfranklin600cc]

Estava doido para ver acelerando na reta final 😤 essa pista é a melhor !!!!!

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Si esta es realmente la mejor ruta del mundo 😁👌 Una pena que hubo un accidente al final, nos enojamos nosotros mismos (también se puede escuchar en el video) 😩😶‍🌫️

[@RobertNES816]

I really like the new Civics interior. The dash is short like how it was with older generations. It's no longer a mile long.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

The interior is really great 👍

[@AB-bu9go]

The next Gen is even shorter

[@xicazen1]

Civic 2022 dash?? For me is very ugly and old fashioned 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

[@Z-u-m-a]

Great work, really dancing with that CTR

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

😁 dancing with it 👍 Thank you Rob 😊

[@LemtemPoktui]

Now imagine how much faster you will be if you were driving that GTS. Amazing driving.

[@syedlink27]

Legendary driving skills Amazing to see the CTR catch the Porsche in the corners. Testament to the driver and the CTR

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you very much 😊👍 The CTR is a fantastic car for the track and a lot of fun 😁👌

[@dafrasier1]

Nice easy lap for the Cayman. He can do another 100 laps on those tires and brakes. The Honda seems to be maxed out. Recommend European Delivery, if you have the chance. Pick up car at Factory and then drive the Ring.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

@@dafrasier1 yes in the Honda driving like this I can do only 35-40 laps with the tires and 40-50 with the break pads 🥹

[@dafrasier1]

@@NordschleifeTypeR wow. yes that is very hard driving. New car every year.

[@billyrock8305]

Cute little Honda kept up to a base Porsche. Very cute 🥰!

Well, this is true 🤣😂😁👍

I may never get to drive on this track in real life...but thank you Gran Turismo for teaching me this amazing track.

Maybe one day 😅😃

[@user-tn1vc1xz5d]

Superb job, great car with fine engine and induction noise, steady camera work as well with good views inside and outside car 😊

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you very much 😊👍 It‘s a lot of fun with the Civic 😁

Impressive car and chasis the type r: a true giant killer 👍🏻👌🏻

I got right into this one , well done! The Civic has come along way since the days my brother came home with a late 70’s hatchback & Hondamatic transmission.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you Poppa 😊 The Civic has been historically a great car but this one is amazing for the track and reliable as well 😁👌

[@poppad1187]

@@NordschleifeTypeRI owned 1994 Civic Si Hatchback and I put almost 400k on that thing and drove the hell out of it. I then moved over to Mazda after , now owning a 100 Anniversary Mazda 3 AWD Turbo. Definitely enjoy the car with all the luxury features but after seeing this new Honda Civic Type R. Looks pretty damn sweet and looks a blast to drive. Tough to beat Honda’s racing pedigree along with their reliability even after pushing it to the limit. Getting up in the morning, you’ve got to look forward to tearing out of your driveway.

[@TOMMYBOY6969]

The GTS isn't using the full width of the road ?

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

He is driving a bit a different line that I’m doing but he has a RWD and I a FWD, but probably could use more of the width 🤔😁

[@momoknows]

Damn on straights that Porsche 718 Cayman GTS gets Ghost !

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Well it’s a Porsche 🤣😅 let’s put some 50-100 more horsepower on the Civic and it would 🚀🚀🚀

[@Encourageable]

That 718 was no joke tho

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Yes 🚀😁👍

[@cookb8419]

Awesome driving sir, what modification have you done to your Type R?

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you 😊 I drive light weight wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 semi slicks 265/35 R18

[@martinjamesdaley]

The acceleration on that Porsche, as it exits corners, is beautiful.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

👌😁

[@nycmaster]

Great driving, the Porsche was fast in the straights, but you had it in the corners and braking.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you 😊👍 in the corners the Civic is an amazing car 😁

[@jayczyzyk9707]

Nice

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thanks 😊

[@izustun9851]

FWD, front Engine car with 4 doors vs. RWD mid engine 2 doors coupe. I wasn't expect this. Yes I knew the Type R has an amazing performance but this is really more than my expectations.

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

Thank you 😊👍 The Type R is definitely an amazing car and superb for the track 🚀

O piloto do Cayman estava claramente se mantendo a frente graças ao cambio automático.

[@user-qz3mt4gq7f]

Как же я болел за Civic. 🔥🔥💪 Мне, кажется, что если бы в авто был только водитель без пассажиров, то разгон был бы немного динамичнее и было бы больше шансов))

[@NordschleifeTypeR]

да, это правда, но пассажир, который делает забавные комментарии, тоже весело 😂🤣👍

[@amzoo9436]

Сивик был гружен, но замечательный бой
