Road America JLP-HD1 Porsche with Jim Pace

Road America for the Hawk. Jim Pace in the JLP-HD1 Porsche. Chasing Dorsey Schroeder and racing to raise awareness for Huntington's Disease and John Paul Jr. Big thanks to Johan!

R. I. P. Mr. Pace Thanks for the great memories.

[@ACMEpowersports]

Rest In Peace fast guy 🏁

[@jtex1013]

Just heard the news of Jim’s passing. This was always one of my favorite YT vids. Rip

R I P. Jim 😥

[@PropDeskJunkie]

Love the commentary. Road America is my home track, wish I could have met you. Rest in peace sir.

[@Spineloro]

Good girl😍 I love how he talks to this old german lady... must not be easy to drive. Thxs❤️✨

[@JimPaceMotorsports]

Thanks for watching. The 911 has a synchronized gearbox and the clutch is used both up and down shifting. The heel toe matching of the revs is still used for this type gear box to A. minimize the wear on the synchronizer and B. provide stability by minimizing rear tire skidding on the downshift. JP

[@wareidav]

What a stunning drive... With instruction !!! Wow.

[@Contractnik]

I met Dorsey Schroeder way back when he came to fill in for our driver, Davey Allison, on a road course (I think Watkins, if I recall correctly), for Robert Yates Racing. Great guy.

[@6MISFITZ]

Amazing racecraft on display from green to checkerd

[@joppy232]

Excellent driving! I love watching your laps while I'm in bed about to go to sleep. Gives me happy dreams

[@andrewwakeling7846]

This video is unbelievably, I love the car and ,well Jim is definitely one cool fella, 😎

[@ZondaF355]

Breathe and squeeze...what a legend!

[@gfig515]

I watch these kind of videos almost everyday and I must say this one belongs to the all time top 3. Not sure what the other two were, so for now, this surely is the best ever. Thanks Jim Pace, and thanks for raising awareness to this cause.

[@MrPorsche85]

Mr Pace, glad to hear your youre OK after that wild ride last sat. I think the big Steward in the sky was lookin out for you! Best wishes,

[@paschalorourke3065]

Come on, baby! Nice and smooth!

[@nrosko]

Love how Jim talks us through it.

[@ZondaF355]

Just made my day Mr. Pace! As a young aspiring driver this is as good as it gets for me. Thanks for all of these amazing ONBOARDS but this is a league of its own...

[@srfrjz3]

Best vid I've watched on the tube in awhile. Excellent driving sir.

[@JimPaceMotorsports]

srfrjz3 Thank you for watching. Please share with your friends. It is good to be a part of the JLP-HD team and raising awareness for Huntington's Disease. Jim

[@ZondaF355]

Simply beautiful sir! Anyone that says driving isn't an art form and racing drivers aren't athletes must watch this closely. This is truly an impressive and physically taxing performance

[@kfyork]

Simply one of the best in-car videos around. Bare, honest - and, fast!!

[@jjsgarage3634]

Spectacular commentary!! Clean, calm, and racing like a gentleman!! But man, I’m exhausted after watching this! 👌👍🏻

[@QuickGaAaamezorSTUdioQG54B1TCH]

"YELLOW......OUCH!" lol the commentary is priceless :D

[@JimPaceMotorsports]

Many ideas flash through the mind during a race and this audio captures what is flashing through mine. Thank you for watching.

[@ZondaF355]

After watching twice this morning I'm wishing that was a 6 hour race...just lovely honest footage of a lovely honest car and driver. Thanks again

[@VZ935]

Art Pilla's old car that Nick G. put a 935 body on and Johan wrapped. Cool race car. JP you're haulin the freight a 2:11! Great video. Thank you for being involved and helping bring awareness about Huntigton's. John is such a good guy!

[@LolaRacer]

Jim passed away about a month before Jr. I’m sure they were in those Porsches at Daytona last weekend going at it!

[@carscoffeeandcannabis-634]

Those flames at 3:24 :O

[@artmchugh5644]

Lighting those big ass tires UP !!! 😄😄😄

[@billl5045]

great cause. and the combination of commentary and 'foot cam' makes this a great vid. thanks.

[@JimPaceMotorsports]

Thank you for watching and supporting the JLP-HD1 Porsche awareness program for John Paul Jr.

[@juankaylo]

can watch 10 hours your vids jim, what a pleasure, please don't stop , keep going with this kind of vids

[@psionicballer3766]

i love listening to jim with his happy positive attitude!

[@JonasRosenven]

Thanks a lot for the video - that was very exciting! I really liked the pedal cam. The double clutching and the little dap on the brake to set the brakes up were nice details that you normally don't get treated to see in racing videos. I never raced. I only tried sim racing. My favorite tracks to drive are Road America and Watkins Glen. Those tracks have such a great flow.

[@jakespeed63]

This one had me on the edge of my seat. Love that track. Only driven it in the BDPS support vehicles.

[@JimPaceMotorsports]

jakespeed63 Thanks for watching. Road America is a grand old circuit no matter what you drive right?

[@cjsawinski]

This guy is his best own personal coach!!

[@JimPaceMotorsports]

Thanks for watching. Loads of fun racing a vintage turbo Porsche around Road America!

[@cjsawinski]

Grew up watching my dad race there for PCA... when I was young he drove a 72’ RS (don’t think it was a real RS)....he eventually upgraded to a 993.. and then a couple different gt3 cup cars. I did a few DE at brainerd a few years back and always wanted to drive Road America. Clint Sawinski was his name! He lost a sudden and quick battle with cancer last year at 61 years old. Anyways I’m rambling... love your vids, brings me back

[@JimPaceMotorsports]

@@cjsawinski Sorry about your dad passing so young. How wonderful you share great memories with him at the track! JP

[@mariobianchi1909]

LOL "nice and smooth, steady steady!" Great driving at one of the best circuit of the world!

[@eltoro6688]

Jim, LOOOOVE the Narration!!!!!

[@FritzCasperfujimo]

This is the greatest racing video I have ever seen. I've watched it at least 100 times... so. thank you , sir. thank you Paul Jr. 100 likes to you...

[@tenorschofield]

Huzzah!!!! JP, you are our favorite racer!!!! best pilot in the road...all the best from your fans in Lima, Perú, South America!!!! BRAVOOO!!!!!!!!!!

[@amelierenoncule]

Monsieur, THIS is, beyond question ... Magnifique! But, you did need a horn to facilitate some of those difficult overtakes...as some do here, in France.

[@robertrishel3685]

Beautiful car and great driving👍

[@Palladio996]

Jim, I really like the added audio during the lap. That is one of my favorite vintage racing cars. I remember seeing it at Road Atlanta.

[@archetypex65]

Jim... that was an unbelievable ride! Great skill and great entertainment/insight with the narration. 👍

[@jfriz221]

Beautifully inspiring stuff Sir. That is how it is done. Could watch you on an infinite loop. First saw your Sebring video and I’ve made it my mantra when I go to that track! Thank you very much for these!

[@Bob930]

Love the old Turbo's Most challenging to drive. Nice run. you so lucky

[@spkprobe2]

love the Vid Jim, put a little more boost on that JLP next time, JP would love you to :)

[@smiley19912]

Fine piece of driving there, I also enjoyed the vid of the blue T70 at the same track. You don't here much about Huntington's Disease.

[@markjurczyk]

Great video, that BMW has 600HP

Refreshing stuff

[@valveman99]

nice driving too!

[@kondor99999]

Has to be a spool rear axle the way he’s hitting the brakes to get it to turn in.

[@reeceengineering3560]

Very nice! Any idea what kind of hp the car was running for the race?

[@TheGogobutt]

I'd like to have Jim ride along with me on Sebring. For evaluation.

[@eltoro6688]

Jim, Got a question. Do you Narrate when there is no camera with you????

[@JimPaceMotorsports]

Mike Pendergrass. Yes frequently. It helps reinforce reference points and forces one to breathe. Thanks for taking time to watch and comment. JP

[@williamhendrix3253]

I've learned a lot from your videos, Do you have to double clutch your downshifts in a car like this?

[@JimPaceMotorsports]

William Hendrix...thank you for watching and pleased that the videos are beneficial. This Porsche has a synchronized gearbox and does not "need" double clutching and simple "heel-toe" matching of the rpms on the downshift is fine. Conversely a NON-synchronized box downshifts better with a double clutch which is blipping the throttle in Neutral with the clutch out. Personally I double clutch everything (including street cars) as that is how I learned. For most non-synchro boxes I do not use clutch at all as seen in other videos with those type cars. Thanks again for watching. JP

[@Jfhfi678]

Can someone explain why he taps the brakes while still on throttle and before entering the brake zones?
