Priceless Unicorn: Porsche 911 CSF RSR UNLEASHED! // Nürburgring

[@titaniummechanism3214]

I hope that Richard Tuthill will allow you to drive his 11k RPM Porsche on the ring one day. That must be mental.

[@olliehunt79]

My parents live next to his daughter and only a few miles from the tuthill garage. Always been fascinated with porches since I was about 9 and saw one of their cars on the local roads being test driven. Would give anything to see that car being driven with proper effort on this track.

Shit, if they even do that

[@ralphlazio505]

Yes. Very good point.

[@tarushdei]

People spend hundreds of thousands building these works of art and then do nothing with them. It's such a shame. So glad to see it not only driving, but at *a* limit on one of the best roads in the world.

this car costs like half a million :o

"Do you like air cooled cars?" "No. And I also don't like pizza, ice cream, sunshine or getting stuff for free"

[@b44rt]

Real question, not hating. But why an air cooled car ? Would liquid not be more efficient? What makes it cool ?

[@janneshildebrandt1]

@@b44rtits just a vibe and a totally different feel vs water cooled engines. Of course water cooled is more efficient, thats why there are no air cooled cars sold nowadays.

[@stoneeh]

I honestly usually much prefer the clinical nature of a modern high reving watercooled NA engine. This aircooled one though, being a heavily modified one, I like it.

[@fernandorubio972]

😂😂😂

[@MrDownRater]

@@b44rt It's like why having a mechanical watch (like a Rolex Sub) when you can buy a quartz and it will be more precise and reliable, the big difference is the feeling, you feel some unholy connection with air cooled engines, even it's only a tuned VW Beetle. (I don't have any experience with old Porsches but with many tuned VW's)

[@guyinoakland]

Sir, thank you for allowing Misha Charoudin to drive your historic work of art. That was very enjoyable to watch!

[@karloV1986]

Mr. Misha C asked how high can rev and gentleman answered 7200 rpm.. if anybody notice that Mr. Misha have some kind of inside feeling for rev limit and always change gear exactly on 7200rpm. Total respect for car and drivers and wish you all best❤

[@RewerWn]

Man that Porsche sounded like it wanted to stretch its legs past 7.2k!

[@governmentcalamari9785]

Pretty sure it stops making power at 7,200. You can hear it start to lay over when he was at 7300. It’ll probably rev all the way to 8800. But it being so special and rare. No point in reving past it’s peak.

[@tibi1441]

Indeed it was still pulling past 7200 and revving quick up top.

[@konto1ification]

Look at JP Performance channel, they revved it close to 8 and mentioned top speeds for 1st/2nd gear. They did a lap on their small course as well.

[@Taffaff]

if it's the same specs as the build on their website, it shows on the dyno it starts to drop power at 7,400

[@Sassenhaim]

No absolutely not , the motor starts to sing in a harmony . Due to the Boxer layout the engine has perfect balance. Meaning max power, it sounds like the dragon finally awakes but it's screaming at peak performance. I call it harmony, everything is working at its peak. 2 strokes bikes as an example are famous for this singing or harmony sound.

[@stoneeh]

Damn damn damn.. the longer the video went on and the more they showed of the car, every second I was falling more in love with it. You said it right - truly priceless. Mega respect to the engineers.

[@justinmcgrane1429]

Larry Chen did a video with the owner on the car and he goes into a lot more detail on the car and how he was sued for using the hand bag material inside of the car.

[@emveezee]

You're such a gentleman for asking if the carousel was ok! shows you really appreciate the car and owner.

[@jordanjoestar8839]

In a Porsche of this era you always MUST brake going straight and his footwork shows he knows exactly this. If you "throw the engine over your shoulder" by trying to brake while turning, its taking you and the whole car with it! A driver needs to coast in loading up the nose resulting in great steering grip, then use the gas and rear weight to load the rear tires allowing minimal traction loss on corner exit. It's somewhat counter intuitive to many designs, yet only works to such a perfect level for the Porsche. Incredible bit of engineering which these days is unique unto itself. Gotta love it!

[@nunyabusiness4188]

Always brake any car before entering the corner. If you need to brake in the corner, you are out of control and likely to crash. Duh.

[@TakumiFujiwara80]

@@nunyabusiness4188 he's talking about the usual "track style" that use trail braking for load the front or rotate the car. On opposite in an old air-cooled 911 is always "slow-in,fast- out".

[@theorenhobart]

@@nunyabusiness4188 the 911s are extreme in this. if you slow down with the steering off center, the ass end will come around. lots of other cars ( not this extreme ) will accommodate some braking in corner

[@nunyabusiness4188]

@@theorenhobart Exactly my point.

[@Manu-Official]

''You're pushing it very hard'' While I fully notice Misha was driving it super gently.

[@williamxchau]

Yes…. Almost painfully soft…. 😂 But I guess it’s normal given the price of this machine and it’s not his.

[@LeonWiddicombe]

@@williamxchau Also, something like that car takes more than a few corners to pick up it's unique driving character.. the weight to the controls, speed of shifts etc... they are cars you get better with time in the seat, compared to todays modern stuff that you can suss out in a few corners really if you are as good as Misha!

[@rjc862003]

@@LeonWiddicombe yes agree you see a few times where hes got his hands full braking and getting it into gear I am not sure he was just being extra careful with the gear changes because the gearboxes are made of glass or if really is just a pita to shift as he said its geared pretty long for street and I hate to think what kind if spinny chaos a low gear and flat would unleash

[@Timmayytoo]

It might not have been the fastest 911 on track that day but it was the coolest, by far.

[@Blaze_75-y3l]

What a work of art. It doesn't touch everyone's soul, but as a passionate, it's a thing of beauty. Whatever the fate of this show car, it has seen the track at least once. In the hands of a respectful pilot.

Stunning machine. The amount of detail these companies make on the Porsches is mind blowing. And the air cooled boxer engine sound is nice to hear. I see that e30 at the end of the video. Me being a e30 lover looking forward to that one.

[@sky173]

In the early 90's, my neighbor used to write for Automobile Magazine. He would review sports cars and write a monthly column. He would hire me to drop off the cars he reviewed then pick up the new cars, and drive them back to his house. I had the privileged to drive many, MANY cars that people only dream about. My favorite was a wide-body twin turbo 911, similar to the car in this video. I've driven Lambos, Ferrari, Jags... you name it. This Porsche was my favorite out of all of them.

[@12345678939218]

Its a pleasure see this car running. Tks for sharing.

[@milodemoray]

Watching Mischa handle that Porsche takes me back to when cars needed to be handled by the driver and not by a bunch of electronic nannies. Those other Porsches that went by, braking late showed just how much the electronic help me's were taking away from driver involvement. Now that is a Porsche I'd love to take to its limit.

[@papapetad]

The bill for this build must be eye-watering. Looks superb and I like the little subtle modern touches like the little vents next to the headlights, the little splitter out back, interior details etc... Very cool car.

[@volvo09]

Yeah, what a beautifully detailed build. Driving it on the road is scary too. Would hate to see this beauty get damaged.

[@phillxor]

[@levisaxen614]

After watching the nearly 40 minute build on this car and the various other videos, I was a bit let down they didn't drive the car. its been a while, but it was worth the wait. Thank you for sharing a proper driving video. Amazing car.

[@YodaIamnot1981]

Watching the video over again makes me want a Porsche like this more and more. I absolutely love the old school air cooled cars of the past. While this was not the fastest on the track it was an absolute legend. Thank you for sharing this experience with us!

[@YodaIamnot1981]

I just want to add that now thinking about it if I had the money and the resources exist I’d buy two of this car. One for the road and show and the other for track. While it would not make sense to track this car I am curious to see how well it would stand up to other cars its age that are driven hard. Hey a guy can dream.

[@AndrewTSq]

the color of this car looks amazing in video, guess it looks even better irl :O wow the engine bay also.. such a nice looking car.

This CSF 911 is exactly opposite of GR Yaris in term of difficulty, this required driver's strength & skill to keep it in one piece. I love both!

[@LeitoAE]

Beautiful car. I actually liked the way you selected gears this time. Nice 'GT style' driving, relaying more on torque than power. In my opinion, there is no need to downshift at the corner's exit. You are mostly driving cars for the first time, it is normal, that sometimes gear selection is not perfect for the speed/corner. When car is not turbocharged, you can let it rev up from those 4-5k RPMs. ;)

You got to live my dream in this video... I have always wanted a classic air cooled 911 Turbo to drive on the Ring.... Sadly at age 41, my life has already been over for years. I was born with a twisted spine that started crushing my spinal cord when I was just 16.... I got by doing courier work for years as driving fast was all I could do that didn't cause me lots of pain. Then 3 years ago I got nailed while stopped at a red light by a truck doing about 60mph. Now I'm unable to drive without it causing too much pain to enjoy... That's why I say my life has been over for years. I lost at the game of life. All the nice things in the world are just for those able to break their back working their whole life away, if you're already broken at a young age... the world hates you for not being useful!
