Porsche 992 GT3 Cup POV Mugello 2024

Join me testing for the first time this exquisite piece of machinery on the magnificent scenery of Mugello's up and downs!
Some context:
It was the second session of the day, I was trying to improve laptimes and find more confidence with the car but unfortunately time was cut short by rain and a subsequent crash that happened just ahead of me :(
The feeling with the car was good overall but there is a loooooot of room for improvement to be competitive. I'm really hoping to race it this year ;))
Grazie ZRS Motorsport!!
Enjoyy!!

I can’t wait to see some GT3 Cup cars here in Long Beach.

This track needs to be back on the f1 calendar

[@eusouluizgustavo]

That was a huge crash, hope the driver is okay

[@666toyo8]

looks amazing! was that an open trackday or why were there different types of cars on the track?

[@b63ombe]

It was a test day with a timetable for both racing and road legal cars. But I don't know why they put historical cars at the same time as racing cars, because they're much slower. They should be with the road legal cars imho

[@alessandrofrezza4542]

Molto veloce! Bravo!!

[@eusouluizgustavo]

Man, we got Miami, Jeddah, Madri, and a whole bunch of boring street circuits, but glorious RACE TRACKS like Mugello, F1 ignores.

[@eusouluizgustavo]

Just watched Hamilton's Pole lap there in 2020, and it was mind blowing

[@user-qq4iq9sv6f]

thx for nice pov

[@ff.x2636]

How does one pursue this path? Just a little curious. Awesome stuff btw!!!

[@b63ombe]

Thank you. You should look for racing series in your place and teams that race in these series. Then you can contact them. Typically they also have contacts with instructors so that they can teach you how to behave on track and how to drive fast.

[@ff.x2636]

@@b63ombe Thank you so much for taking your time and responding. I've always had the dream of pursuing this path but never knew how to start lol. I do have one more question tho, how much would it cost for me to follow this path? As amazing as this looks, I'm worried I wouldn't be able to afford it.

[@b63ombe]

Not gonna lie, it costs a lot. The cheapest national championships aren't less expensive than 10k €, but some amateur series can be much cheaper and each race may cost some hundreds of euros each

[@kk1xx]

does it have traction control i heard from somewhere it doesnt

[@b63ombe]

It does have TC, but it's not that invasive at all as in GT3 cars, it helps a little in wet conditions and for stressing less the rear tyres, but in dry it's always kept at minimum values. In general 911 cars, having a lot of weight on the back because of the engine position, physically have A LOT of traction capability by themselves without electronic intervening. The previous model, the 991 GT3 Cup didn't have TC, so maybe that's what you heard.

@@b63ombe thanks

[@ayrton14773]

are you a italian racedriver? Will you race in psc or gt ita?

[@b63ombe]

I'm going to race in the GT Cup Sprint, I'm not fast enough yet for pcci:(

[@ayrton14773]

@@b63ombe well done mate...if you allow, i add you on fb?

[@diegoz493]

[@JForst-v8c]

How did that guy crash it on a straight at 5:11?

[@HELPME-rj7gp]

he maybe went too wide and lost the rear getting on the throttle again

[@RHBTurbochargers]

if you look closely it started raining

[@b63ombe]

It started raining and I guess the outside curb got wet, so when he put his wheels there he lost it :(

[@autoinsight.global]

Multiple factors could have been againts him. It was starting to rain. Apply some throttle as you go over a wet curb uphill and you can land in trouble very quickly.

[@whate1se]

Bro is a bot 💀

[@StevenJaceWhittemore]

Hey, sorry about my comment earlier, excellent video but seriously someone should help me get into racing professionally because I really am that good. And I hope the person that crashed in the video is okay, I like to think that I would have stopped but I'm sure there were safety professionals for that nearby.

[@imaaronman]

so this is what its like to drive on rich peoples track day

[@Jannajx5]

Nice go kart

[@kos137]

nice video thx.

[@JilleDeMon]

you have ABS and TC in porsche cup??

[@b63ombe]

Porsche cup championship regulations only allow TC, but as we're going to race this car in the Italian GT Championship we are free to have also ABS

[@JilleDeMon]

lmao why would u have to show a wrist band

[@b63ombe]

I know, it kinda upsets me every time. It's the "pass" the organizer gives us to make sure we signed all the papers in which we declare that if we crash/hurt ourselves it's our business and not their fault 😪.

[@autoinsight.global]

The most perfect job in the world. Always dreamed about doing this. Unreal.

[@gusseisern1151]

sounds awful 🤮
