Porsche GT2 RS MR My Fastest Nurburgring Lap EVER - I'M SPEECHLESS!

The Porsche GT2 RS MR is the fastest road car on the Nürburgring Nordschleife, and my experience of a hot lap tells me exactly why! Blasting from bridge to gantry in a mere 6:55.5 with Tim Morley at the wheel of Robert Mitchell's Manthey Racing Porsche, it's quite something to behold.
During the Manthey Racing Trackday hosted on the Green Hell we are surrounded by incredible Porsches of all descriptions but arguably none more special than the Ring's record holder in the form of a few GT2 RS MRs dotted around, one of which belongs to my friend, Robert Mitchell.
To get an understanding of what exactly this car is, and how it set a full laptime record of 6:40.3, Robert takes a break from his new KZbin channel to show us around and explain through the host of track time focused modifications that Manthey Racing have made to it. From there on though it's into the passenger seat with Tim Morley at the wheel to be shown what it's made of. Tim has covered thousands of Ring laps, including running as a taxi driver, and many at the wheel of this car and as such knows a thing or two. The car itself has pounded round in excess of 500 times and even on this lap it's smooth, comfortable, not bouncing off kerbs but proving a point that this is a serious force to be reckoned with.
Without any shadow of a doubt, it's the fastest lap I've ever experienced at the Nurburgring Nordschleife, and a huge thanks goes to Robert, Tim and the team at Manthey for this opportunity.

WOW! What an unbelievable experience, the Porsche GT2 RS MR is the fastest car at the Nürburgring Nordschleife for good reason. Jumping onboard Robert Mitchell's car with Tim Morley at the wheel, it's a mere 6 mins 55 secs from bridge to gantry in the ride of my life. Skip to 9:32 for the track lap!

10:54 - "I saw you go for the brake pedal there" You fucking legend, Tim. That was a brutal lap, so much skill and such a capable car. That green RS you came past at around 13:20 turned into a green smudge of paint so incredibly quickly I refuse to believe he was even moving.

Cudos to your amazing driving skill Tim. All the way through that lap I kept thinking that one instant of miscalculation or distraction would put you both in the wall. Yet you did it and made it look easy at the limit. I'll re-watch this lap as it was a wonderful experience.

[@LorenzoClara97]

You are amazing. Fighting the car on the limit of grip like I would on assetto corsa buy you was doing it in real life, at work, with a client on board ahahah just amazing skills

[@ryanhoffmann9341]

The most amazing thing is that the freaking car has 690 HP! Through the rear wheels! At no point during that lap did the car look anything but planted. Just goes to show you that proper aero and suspension tuning and tumble lap times as much as or more than just throwing more power at it. Pretty fun to see Tim a little shaken as well. He is usually so calm and composed. Awesome video!!

Thank you for introducing everyone to your fabulous car and the opportunity to jump on board with Tim to experience what it's all about in the perfect place!

[@mattyoz0]

[@JerGol]

@@vinnycris Times at the Ring can't be measured from a single place, as the drivers don't actually complete a full lap. The convention is to measure from the bridge they go under just after getting up to speed until the gantry once onto the finishing straight. The BTG time is therefore all you'll see for the lap time for nearly everyone.
