The member who rode it was Japanese legend Kunimitsu Takahashi.
He passed away recently, but he was a master who was active in Honda's early WGP when he was young.
After switching to car racing, he is famous for his success in Nissan in Japan.
One of the R32GTR's victories in All Japan Group A was with Keiichi Tsuchiya, who later ran the NSX at Le Mans with the same combination.
Takahashi barely won anything. He's known for inventing drifting.
This one is among the prettiest 962 in terms of livery

@@WardenOfTerraIf he’s barely won anything, then how come he’s a 4X JSPC Champion and also a Le Mans class winner, not to mention his success as a team owner through Team Kunimitsu, along with his successes driving the Hakosuka GTR
She’s one of the few driver reporters who really looks like a genuinely excited (and terrified) 10 year old kid driving dads car down the street at 3am in the morning whilst everyone’s asleep 😂 I feel like I’ve driven cars with her, her nervous patter is both informative and entertaining, she’s unique.
Great video thanks
Mario and Michael Andretti are not brothers, Mario is the father and Michael is his son.
Correct. I think Aldo was Mario’s brother, who was the less successful racer.
LOL
Who would not know that fact?? 😱
@@ericcindycrowder7482 Aldo was a pretty decent driver, almost on par with his twin Mario. Then he was badly injured in a dirt track race and quit racing while Mario went on the great things.
Yes that's Correct.
One of the most beautiful race cars ever, a true classic. That must have been a heart stopping moment letting the clutch out on all that power. Have you still got that smile on your face? Mine is still green with envy🤣🤣 Thank you Jodie, best one yet👍👍👍👍👍
Absolutely. Watching this back is wonderful after such a fun day. Glad you enjoyed it Bob! Xx
What a wonderful video Jodie, I really enjoyed this one.
There's also a street legal 962 in Japan but only this video showcases how physical it is to drive them. No sugar coating, just motorsport excitement.
The 962 in Japan is not actually an original. From memory it was built from spare parts. This thing though is just so cool!
@@eastielover I had no idea! :D
There are also the Dauer 962 road cars which were converted from 962 race cars.
They say "do something that scares you once a day" looks like at one point you achieved that! Fantastic video and kudos to the owner to have the balls to make it road legal!
Right!!? Xx
The look on your face when you opened the door at the end says it all.
The 956/962 is probably my favourite racing car.
It was insane!!! Xx
It makes me wonder what other car drivers think when they see that coming down the road towards them. "Have I taken a wrong turn onto a race track?" It looks very snug, but very exiting.
I had to laugh when you mentioned the car had 750 bhp and you were going 20 mph in traffic.😅 Your arms and rearend might be sore tomorrow, but wow, what an incredible experience! Thank you Jodie. 🙏🏁🔥🔥🔥
A tad! Thanks for the support David xx
It's surreal seeing this 962 mixing it up with regular cars in traffic - like a video game brought to life! I'm also struck by how compact race cars like this are... their diminutive size is much more apparent when there are "normal" vehicles nearby to provide a sense of scale.
Thank you for sharing this incredible experience!
Glad you enjoyed it xx
my thoughts too legend of a car the best episode yet , how about doing the same in some more legends from the past a group b rs200 or audi sport quattro or 205 t16
I just love the way you describe the cars you drive Jodie. You know everything there is to know about them and give a sensible opinion of the drive you are taking. This one is a real beast and I would imagine people doing a double take when they saw it. Thank you for giving us this experience.
Thanks so much Bob for the kind words xx
WOW Jodie, what an experience!! Fancy being able to drive that car on the road! Keep 'em coming, cheers, John.
I know right! Thanks John xx
Absolute Bonkers! Might get just a bit of attention in Sainsburys car park ! I suppose you could build a small trailer complete with downforce spoiler to carry the shopping! Joking aside wonderful experience of a video. It reminds me of a Motorsport article In the 1970s when one of the scribes, I think it was C.R ; drove an open sports racer on the road in similar vain , got stopped by the police who he had to convince it was actually road legal ……well it’s like this officer….., keep them coming , Jodie
Your energy and enthusiasm are just sooo engaging. You really brought to life what it feels like to drive an uncompromising true race car on the road, without the usual bravado and cliches of other channels. Please keep seeking out these special cars and bringing them to life for us.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed xx
Ohhh, what an incredible car and what a lovely video! I was completely teary-eyed by that turbo noise that only older turbo engines have! The one where you let them alternate more! Goosebumps and tears of pure happiness! 👍
Got to be my favourite video of 2022 across all of TH-cam!
Wow thanks Brian! Xx
Great video.
I love it when people take the time and effort to make cars like this road legal and actually drive them.
It's crazy! Xx
What a bonkers, insane. magnificent. fabulous, beautiful road legal machine. Now you can really imagine how it is to drive down the Mulsanne at 200 mph! many thanks Jodie 🌹
Just incredible right! Would be insane xx
I believe The Porsche 962C down the Mulsanne at around 240 mph.
Amazing....!! No other words needed...
Thank you Jodie....xx
Porsche 962. For me the most beautiful car in the history !!!!!
It's up there for sure Marcos! Xx
Love the sound of those turbos. Thank you for sharing 🙂
They're addictive!! Xx
That is bonkers, it’s looked a beast to handle, very bouncy at the front end!! Thanks for sharing…
Haha just a bit. Glad you enjoyed Mark xx
Wow, simply wow. What an experience! What a video! Thank you as ever ❤
It was unbelievable. Glad you enjoyed 💙
@@KiddinaSweetShop I'd be terrified I missed a gear changed and buzzed the engine or some such. But what a beautiful car and in right hand drive too :)
"Work of Art" perfectly described Jodie. Another great vlog. Thanks Jodie.
Thanks Brendan 😍
Love seeing my namesake having the best experiences in the best cars….
😍😍 nice name xx
Looks like good fun. There is a Rothmans 962 driven on the road in Japan. Thanks for sharing Jodie and have a good new week. 😎👍🇨🇦
Just epic. You too Alan xx
The “Rothmand” one in Japan isn’t original 👍
Recently found this channel thought it would just be just like the Super car Bimbo channel but was pleasantly suprised how much of a real Petrol head Jodie is Respect to her great to see her drive this Beast on the Road
Sheer and utter madness.. I love it!!!! Ruddy wonderful Jodie!
Me too 😁😁💙
Porsche 962 is the legendary racing car which comes from Group C era and I am so glad that you have driven this legend on the road for us and I enjoyed a lot while watching this video. Top notch content Jodie, very well done!
Thanks so much xx
Thought road legal Group C cars were unique to Japan: happy to be corrected!
Absolute respect to the owner for doing something many of us dream of, great video of an unimaginable experience.
Well said! thanks so much xx
Such a monumental famous Porsche 962 thank u for sharing this with us and congratulations for getting the chance to drive it
Thank you too!
Jodi got it right when she said "Oohh f(beep)k!" This car is an absolute animal.
What a fabulous life experience Jodie, loved the unrehearsed commentary and the giggles, once again unique and refreshing episode. Thanks!
Paul it was epic! Thank you so much for the support xx
Porsche 962 certainly gets the adrenaline flowing, and gives you a good workout Jodie. What a fantastic experience.
It sure does! Quite the exercise lol xx
For a Sunday morning blast, yes please........great video and explanation Jodie, best video so far for me, after the Pagani one. Quality of production is A+ too, many thanks........
Saw this in the Goodwood Hotel car park during FoS, what a car!!
Just nuts! Xx
Incredible!!! I'd've liked to have seen you fill the tank just to see everyone's jaws hit the floor!!!! Marvellous machine & well driven!!!!
Haha that would've been funny. Thanks Graham xx
Another fantastic video Jodie, what a fantastic car, I’m sure it was a mind blowing experience!!
It sure was! Glad you enjoyed it Mark xx
WOW! I love these. You're so very lucky. I remember when these were still racing back in the 80's and early 90's. In the late 90's a few companies like Dauer, Koenig, and Schuppan made road going versions. My favorite liveries are the Rothman's and Leyton House. Thank you.
Dreamy!! Glad you enjoyed xx
Totally and utterly AWESOME Jodie. You lucky, LUCKY thing you!
I know right!!! Xx
Making this car road legal is madness!
Isn’t it just!
Jodie, paint me green with envy. I'm soooooooo jealous as that is one absoulte awesome car. Should have been in Germany driving it on the autobahns so you could give it some more beans. The noise from that engine is brutal, imagine starting that up a 6am to go to work lol. Epic video Jodie, keep them coming.
Great job Jodie! a lot of info,a lot to learn, i'm next. I'd love to drive the racing version. Great video! great music! England is one of the most beatiful places on earth!
what a treat to drive that thing ! pretty "raw" driving experience. great vid.
Fantastic video Jodie. I felt as though I was in the car with you. And your calm and confident presentation style is exceptional. So many youtubers try too hard. You don't. Thanks for the great content.
Haha that's good to hear! Xx
Absolutely amazing video, to make it road legal & to experience the drive in real world conditions is the stuff of dreams, thank you ❤
Just incredible isn’t it. Glad you enjoyed xx
One of my favourite race cars.....❤
Epic car, Eric drivers and epic livery! Porsche 962 is legendary !
You don’t need words
That deafening racket throughout was all the words required
What an epic car , one of my faves and so well driven Jodie , impressive 🙏🙏🙏
Next an Audi sport Quattro please , yea 650 bhp Thankyou
That was spine tingling to say the least
Couldn’t wait any longer to watch this 🏴🙏😎👌
Nah just incredible wasn’t it! That would be fun 🤔 xx
Seeing how much you're being shaken about inside it tells us how hard it's sprung more then words can, and the sound, hats off to you and your team for getting audio clear enough to hear you through the race car cacophony!
Would love to see some autobahn footage. 😄
Haha thank you - so would I lol xx
Amazing Jodie thanks.Incredible to see it on the roads, I bet you got some interesting looks from other drivers and pedestrians.
Glad you enjoyed it! Xx
I love the sound of an uncorked racing flat-6.
Incredible 😱. I enjoyed watching this a looot, but I cannot have liked this as much as you must have liked shooting it. That must have been so special. Great video 👍🏼
It was just epic. Thank you xx
Awesome car, fabulous video and an interesting owner ! Jodie and team pull it out the bag again !
Haha thank you 😍😍
Envious , there,s a word , i love "Kidd In A Sweet Shop" apart from anything else , you GET to drive and ARE capable of (I could only dream of) DRIVING these absolutely amazing road & race cars , How cool is that , How lucky are you AND how lucky are we that we get to share your experiences. . . . i could only imagine how Derek Bell et al must have felt flinging these things down The Mulsane Straight ...... Thank you
Thanks so much for the kind words! Xx
Jodie - you are an awesome driver !!! Such an honest cool review thank you xxxx
There is nothing else like a Porsche, whether its a race car on the road or a road car on the race track. Another awesome video Jodie. It gives me so much joy, it reminds me so much of old Top Gear.
Agree!! Aw thanks so much xx
I agree, there are old Top Gear vibes here. Keep it up, please!
Can you imagine going to the shop for food and groceries with that 😅🤣
😂😂😂 that would be hilarious xx
What a great video and such an iconic car! Absolutely brilliant job !!
Wow Jodie, Kidd in a Sweet Shop goes to the next level with this one! Wonderful video, very well put together and the genuine excitement and passion you have for for the 962 really comes through! Great job! More please!
Thank you so much!
What a Truly special experience this must have been, to drive that car on our roads, scary! Sound of the turbos is something else, to convert the into a road legal car is just awesome full credit to the guys who did it :)
It was insane Chris! Xx
Wowwwww I’m jealous as hell what fantastic job you have I wouldn’t be able to resist turning that dial to number4 and floor it what a fantastic car, your not a bad driver for women lol 😂 seriously that’s a real piece history there another great video Jodi keep good work up
So difficult! Lol glad you enjoyed it Trevor xx
This version, but in Dauer “street livery” in yellow was/is my all time favourite car….ever!!! They called it “The Road Car That Won Lemans”. The Dauer interior is to-die for…….A real street-legal car with 750hp and leather interior everything. Great video girl!!
Wow 🤩 You fit in it better than I imagined - didn’t look to cramped at all.. Having driven my 306 maxi rally car project on the roads in regular traffic I can only imagine how stressful this actually was! Can relate to the ‘hot and sweaty’ bit for sure, and love your candour!
Haha not too bad right?! Absolutely lol xx
When you think what that would have looked and felt like driving around on the road in 1988, against cars of the day. Now it looks like something from another world. 😧
Just insane Chris! Xx
That was brilliant, really enjoying the content Jodie, I'd swear too if I gave that the beans 🤣
Haha can’t help it! Xx
I thought that Jodie was very restrained. You should hear the people on Dash Cam Owners Australia. 😁
Respect to you Miss Kidd, driving that beast on the public roads. A treat, thanks.
@10:24 "I'm laughing in fear". Love it! The experience would have been equal measures of ecstasy and terror I'm sure!! Thanks for taking us on the ride 👍
Indeed! Glad you enjoyed xx
Great video Jodie...but you must have been tempted to hop across the channel and get on the Autobahn! , can you imagine!! What a terrific car with a great history. Cheers Steve 😊
Imagine!!! Glad you enjoyed Steve xx
Now that's a racing car for the road. I bet that was an experience. IIRC there's a Rothmans-liveried road-legal 962 in Japan.
It sure was! Just epic xx
The one in Japan is not original I believe.
Absolutely beautiful to see this car being driven on the road! 😍
Super máquina parabéns por trazer o 962 um monstro( Alarcon -Brasil)
That is F A N T A S T I C , this channel keeps getting better and better , keep up the good work : - )
Thanks so much Colin xx
Amazing to see that iconic race car on the road. You looked like you had a real blast driving it as well. It did sound really noisy in there though. I am also entirely confident you didn't break the speed limit once J 😉. Big shout all who work on Kidd in a Sweet Shop.
It was so much fun Darren haha xx
Another great video Jodie - how amazing to get to drive this car & mind blowing to see it on the public roads - I bet you worried a few drivers as you came up in their rear view mirror! 😳 Channel continues to bring the content! 🔥🙌
Haha thanks David! Appreciate the support xx
Awesome vid !!! Legendary car legendary opportunity!!! 👍🏻🇨🇦
You are such a badass and you find the coolest cars. I love how you explain how it is to physically drive a car like this. The hard pedals and steering wheel, the heat, the gear shifter where you have to go into second to get into first, the lack of fresh air vents etc I have seen a million car reviews, but it is so often about how precise the steering is or the sound of the engine. You are much better at communicating how it actually is to drive this car. Love your channel.
Quite the compliment thank you xx
Just gets better, how could any of us enjoy that as much as you did ? I think the big grin said it all
Regards Davy 🇹🇭
Haha 😆 it was such fun Davy xx
OMG! Finally driving a Street Legal PORSCHE 962C! Thank You So Much!
So glad I found your channel. Loving the videos keep them coming. And keep yourself safe Jodie
Thank you! Will do! Xx
Useful for scaring Audis out of the 3rd lane on the Motorway ! 😀 Awesome video, and I’m sure awesome experience.
Haha that’s one issue for it Mark. Glad you enjoyed the episode - I certainly enjoyed filming it! Xx
When I first saw this pop on my feed my first thought was ‘she isn’t going to drive that barefoot’….😂
Yet another great video, keep them coming….👍🏻
😂😂😂
Quite the fabulous film Miss Kidd astonishing never thought I’d want a Porsche you’ve changed my mind.
Haha not your average Porsche xx
Love her....so down to earth and passionate about cars!!!
Possibly the best group C car ever, and such a beautiful design! I've seen this car, and many other 962's and they always take my breath away just looking at them. Probably the biggest reason I bought my SL-C, just seeing it in the garage makes me appreciate automotive art/design... and the 962 might just be the pinnacle of that (IMO)! Congrats on getting seat time in one, that's something very few will ever get the honor of doing!
For me the Sauber C9
Wow. what an experience! Your channel is already one of the best Jodie & with content like this, you really should have 10 x more subscribers!? Their loss :)
Haha thanks 😊 xx
Can't believe I haven't happened upon your channel sooner. Great content Jodie and what a buzz to get to drive that beast, even sedately. Now, to watch some more. Subbed!
thats a once in a life drive, they are such a cool car. thanks for that amazing video Jodie
For sure! Glad you enjoyed it Craig xx
You lucky lady what a sound just imagine yourself on the mulsane straight in full power mode without the silly chicanes
I know right! The dream Barry xx
Wow, respect. You get better. The camera loves you and your ability and genuine enthusiasm is infectious. I doubt there's another female presenter who could have made that film, never mind keeping the car on the road while doing it and really making the whole thing work together for the audience. I felt like I was there. More please.
Thanks so much! Really appreciate the support xx
Slightly sexist but never mind
@@stemtb4411 I agree. This is top notich regardless of gender. I appreciate Jodie's descriptions because they convey the actual driving experience (along with that NOISE). Such a challenge! I had been lusting after this car since it was first introduced, but not anymore. Now I realize it's for professionals.
Amazing! You're living the dream, thanks for sharing it with us!
I sure am Aaron! Xx
Seems a strange thing to comment on, I know, but it's a pleasure to watch something on a car like this with the audio so well-sorted. Usually in track-biased stuff the presenter is yelling and screaming, but Ms. Kidd is relaxed and composed. So good!
Haha thank you for the observation xx
Whoever is filming and editing your videos, is doing a fantastic job - and deserve a raise 💷
Will pass on the kind words xx
I agree! I love how you can barely hear a word above all the noise and racket!! Brilliant sound engineering.
Wow that is one cool ride. I'm a little bit envious that you got to drive it tbh lol
It was pretty epic Woody! Xx
What I love most about this video is your face and the noises you make while driving it.......they are the same as I would be making in your shoes! Bucket list car to drive and a great video, thanks!
childhood dreams right there Jodie, fantastic.
Indeed John xx
Mega!! must be soo much fun driving that on the road.. keep the great content coming!!
😍😍 it sure was Pete
I had a friend that had a street-legal 935 race car. He took my dad for a spin up the Columbia George at ludicrous speeds. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure if Vasek's car was street legal or not. In the '80s, you could get away with a lot.
This 962 is insane. 5:15 Don't hit 4 on the Getriebe switch, that's for when you want to go to plaid.
Oh wow! Xx
Had me at the intro... All time favorite race car..
Saw the Rothmans at Lime Rock Park when I was a Little one...
Right after LeMans, just like in the magazines.
Amazing! Xx
Absolute dream of mine along with the period jaguar xjrs! Congrats jodie the channel has awesome vehicles on it that noone else has!x
