How To Drift A Porsche Cayman R

Porsche gave us the keys to a 2012 Cayman R and let us loose on their Silverstone test track with one aim: could we successfully drift the Cayman? Who's the better drifter - Alex or Adnan?

[@billieguitar]

LOL the instructor is so epic "and now it's totally gone wrong" without changing his expression at all what a badass.

[@PorscheCrazy00]

Loved that instructor !!! Very funny ....

[@Basketballerphx]

You guys saying the instructor was talking too much can shut the fuck up. I've had the pleasure of driving some high end exotics on a track and the instructors there make this one seem mute. "Brake, brake, brake, turn in, hit the apex, bla, bla, bla, don't shift until I tell you, shift now, accelerate, downshift, downshift bla bla bla" This guy is doing his job.

That Cayman R looks awesome

Cheers Team XCar - I'm sure you've got a lot of drifty car action to show us all, can't wait!

[@CarThrottle]

MX-5 is a great "learn how to drift" car. As I (Adnan) found out with my turn in the Cayman R, you need significantly better tekkers to drift that machine on a skid pad!

[@CarThrottle]

Thanks Krste! Glad you enjoyed the vid :)

[@CarThrottle]

Gotta love Jez (Adnan loves him more for the 8/10 score naturally)...

[@uzzisa1745]

OH MY GOD!!! Jeremy (the porsche guy) did the handover on my car!!!!

[@Theoneandonlybay2345]

What did ya get of jezza!

[@softhotty]

I enjoyed this, great job producers filmers and players.

[@ghvtg]

Easy to see why Adnan disappeared off the videos when you see him and Alex presenting side by side.

[@CarThrottle]

Thanks returnoftheyak ;) One of our fellow #TeamCT lads, Darren, is off on his Mongol Rally adventure this summer, so I'm sure he'd like to see your doc for some ballsy inspiration! Keep in touch, and ping us when your video is up.

[@martywild8200]

The PSM really is impressive, as shown by what happens when it's turned off. I really want to get down there for a day in mine!

[@phoenixschofield7711]

First video Alex was in?

[@10aszg]

having been to a very similar driver training i can tell that these skid pads and instructors are real confidence crushers.. in a good way tho! ..the second part of the vid just sums up what i do in the mx5 whenever the rain starts pouring :D

[@DarrenCassey]

Yes I look forward to getting some ballsy inspiration!

[@BanijayComedy]

These guys are seriously committed to travel and adventure driving. You should check out their doc teaser if you haven't already- Blew us away! Great channel by the way, you've earnt yourself another subscriber! Holla

[@xDRAN0x]

Now that's an instructor, jeez. +1

[@KrsteToshev]

Funny video, guys! The instructor was brutal :D

[@xmkxrm]

This video is a bit derailed from the general topic. It seems to be a testimonial rather than a set of instructions of drift techniques for a rr-chassis or mid-engine vehicle. KT, from japan who created the Drift Bible DVD, shows the techniques in details with similar chassis setups like the Toyota mr-2 and nsx. This is just a quick feedback because the video doesn't seem to be taken seriously. I'm just saying.....

[@10aszg]

yeah, i agree. it must not be easy to drift these rear engined porches

[@hammurambi]

Yeah I've seen those videos of FWD Honda Accords spinning out of control.

[@Dstructeur1]

That was a moment ago today

[@lsmixm.r.c5812]

Very god

[@MohamedAseeri]

i have a cayman r and an m3 the cayman is nearly impossible to drift the m is so easy u coulf do it with one finger

[@returnoftheyak]

Great video guys, when you have the time check out our channel. We drove from the UK to Mongolia in a car more suited for a trip to the supermarket! We have been focusing on editing the feature doc over the last year but are now near completion and will be releasing a youtube video in the next month to kick start our channel, to be followed by regular updates and collaborations. It would be great if we could build a relationship together in the coming months!

[@12389h]

Skid pad.

[@asimKR]

What a ripoff of a video. The title is drifting a Porsche but all they did is spin out. They have absolutely no experience and don't know how to drift. I was robbed of my time.

[@jinjaninja20]

asimKR oh if anyone gave a shit anyway.

[@FSXgta]

+Do You Even Djent you did cuz u replied

[@jinjaninja20]

[@KAVINSKY311]

camels don't count

[@sokhomnhon1685]

I had one 2008 suck Germany Porsche I fix too much fuck

[@thatpandasamuraisamuraipan345]

Paul walker shoulda watched this video

[@doorjam8793]

Lol ever heard of snap over steer?! A Porsche is not the car you want to try and drift because of the rear engine configuration.

[@danielgera1361]

Sorry Skys lol the funny thing is that a cayman is mid engined

[@doorjam8793]

Daniel Gera rear engine, mid engine either way what I mean is that you don't have that front engine weight distribution that is needed to drift without spinning out all the time... if you have a mid/ front engine confit the weight of the engine will spin you around when you get the car side ways... not saying it's impossible to drift just way more difficult

[@johns5493]

Mid engine oops!

[@ezturbo]

instructor talking wayyyyyy to much

[@xXAsunaxKiritoXx]

Uhhhhhhhh i mean errrrrr this is not drifting..............
