Wow! Absolutely amazing. Porsche cup cars are incredible. The drivers concentration level to navigate this course is just brilliant. The in car camera was excellent. And thanks for not covering it with an audio track.
Great video. It's amazing how these guys handle a car going up Pikes Peak. And no guardrail, for most of it. Can't believe how close some of the spectators are to the cars.
@BradKlodowski There's no autoblipper in this car. If you watch his feet closely you can clearly see him heel-and-toe on the downshifts to match the revs in the lower gear, for example at 2:12
I was just walkin down to take a pee,when this car came past,a moment I shall never forget,it was the run of the day as far as I am cincerned,people,you should have heard this machine go by from 15 ft,it puts shivers everywhere,lol.
Damn that is scary. I love how the put straw up against the guard rails but don't put anything in front of most of the sheer cliffs. Also, it's amazing how hard he has to drive that car to prevent it from killing him.
yeah W. Röhrl in this porsche now days... that would be sick.. i think thats all i can say to your comment also nice comment i love cars i love tuning i love everythgin that has to do with the engine i love every single track i love eveyhtign about motorsport the best thing in this fake world are cars and upgrades and tires and bbs wheels on gt3s and shiiiit I'm so in love with these cars..
At Top gear UK web page you can see the car Loeb are going to use up there. Solberg have over the last three years said he is going up that peak to. So they are coming, and if Loeb are there before Solberg, then Solberg while be there soon after him...
To mawerick 024....the 911 has inherent understeer ....that is why the nose runs wide...you gas it and correct the slide.I think you have it backwards....
I'd love to see Loeb, Solberg, or Latvala get a shot at the mountain one of these days. I think it's become more of a specialized amateur event in recent years, which is both cool and a bit of a shame.
is this the same Porsche car that races in the series "Carrera Cup" ? They are called Porsche 997 GT3 Cup cars, i'm thinking this might be the exact one, any one know ?
When it gets to the dirt portion it sounds like it's a gas powered clothes dryer filled with BB's. At least it'll be nicely sand blasted and ready to paint when it gets to the top.
I agree that Walter Röhrl has more merit because of the difference of power and technology between the cars then and now. But the fact that the road was 50% asphalt is not an advantage, because they have to set up the cars in an intermediate way between gravel and asphalt. Yo can't go the limit of the car in none of the terrains. In the other hand, If the road is only gravel you set the car for gravel and go to the limit.
for the drivers who have been doing this the longest, wonder whch they liked the best, the way it is now, paved all the way to the top, or back when almost all of it to the top was dirt???????
Ive watched this like 10 times now and it never gets old

this is a true ball buster of a drive, the single can, real sound and jeff's hands make it awesome! deserving of a record!
pikes peak and porsche 911 (or vice versa) -
the best combination at all :)
one of the best hillclimb-vids, i´ve ever seen !
Wow, had no idea of the surface changes like that. Awesome video!!
Exactly my definition of happiness !
This run scared the crap out of me when the road went from asphalt to dirt. The fans being so near the road looked pretty scary also.
Great video. It's amazing how these guys handle a car going up Pikes Peak. And no guardrail, for most of it. Can't believe how close some of the spectators are to the cars.
This is some quality stuff right here..
If you vote me into the Oval Office, I promise to spend the TAX dollars necessary to rip that tarmac out again... :)
Heel and toe like a boss. Yeah!
Fantastic video, thank you

Balls of steel...
GREAT stuff!
yeah W. Röhrl in this porsche now days... that would be sick.. i think thats all i can say to your comment also nice comment
i love cars
i love tuning
i love everythgin that has to do with the engine
i love every single track
i love eveyhtign about motorsport
the best thing in this fake world are cars and upgrades and tires and bbs wheels on gt3s and shiiiit I'm so in love with these cars..
Awesome!
exceptionnel !
@ugandist Straight cut gears.
Same sound you here when you put yours in reverse cause that's a straight cut gear as well.
Epic Drive !!!
Beautiful drivin!
At Top gear UK web page you can see the car Loeb are going to use up there.
Solberg have over the last three years said he is going up that peak to.
So they are coming, and if Loeb are there before Solberg, then Solberg while be there soon after him...
just WOW !
Look Ari vatanen with peugeot t 16 in 1990, amazing
What Joey said haha Awesome view of all the action!
Gravel part is just awesome
amazing driving wish i could do that
I wonder what kind of tires they run when the track was part gravel part paved....must be so fun...
Just wow...
To mawerick 024....the 911 has inherent understeer ....that is why the nose runs wide...you gas it and correct the slide.I think you have it backwards....
Drive slowly and jerks, jerky, very effective! improved greatly
Every time has it's racer and fine race... I think the best race in Pikes Peak is done by A. VATANEN with Peugeot 206T16 in the 80's...
Some men can drive and some are Gods. I'm speechless.
Some serious over steer action on the dirt.
Use that rear to steer... love it
yes, and the limit on gravel with gravel tires is much less than the limit on intermediate tires on asphalt. Any rallycrosser will tell you this :)
I'd love to see Loeb, Solberg, or Latvala get a shot at the mountain one of these days. I think it's become more of a specialized amateur event in recent years, which is both cool and a bit of a shame.
what's this high pitch sound? i can hear it in every racing car, but not sure about what causes it
is this the same Porsche car that races in the series "Carrera Cup" ?
They are called Porsche 997 GT3 Cup cars, i'm thinking this might be the exact one, any one know ?
wonder what tires he's using..
im so dumb, i watched the whole things thinking that a like drinking cup flies into the car...
bro....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH youre my favorite persob
no video on tajimas record race..?
my ears feel like they are popping just watching this lol
Alfred, bring me a pikes peak and a gt3 please. Now !
When it gets to the dirt portion it sounds like it's a gas powered clothes dryer filled with BB's. At least it'll be nicely sand blasted and ready to paint when it gets to the top.
i would give everything i have to buy an old 911 and restore it no matter how much money it cost and how much time it will take that's my dream
cars
that noise! better than any v8
after about 11 or 12000 feet, most people get one hell of a headache. Happens to me every time I climb Mount Shasta
Porsche style! Let the nose run wide, floor it in the middle of the bend and correct the oversteer
it is still an asphalt and asphalt means traction no matter the setup.... walter rohrl was crazy and he don't give a shit about safe racing :P
crazy people, sitting or standing at the outside curb lol

There is 3 pedals Oo
Porsche would likely get more marketing if a 911 finished 5th in a WRC event than Loeb finishing 1st.
Thats not a turbo.
Thats the sound of the gearbox
I wish I had a supercar.... or maybe not because I`ll probably get myself killed in a few days XD.
11:26 i would start questioning if there even is a turn or if its my very own launch pad
when he down shifts it sounds like there's a guy in the gear box with a hammer bludgeoning the gears
i wanna see walter rohrl, drive this car....with a regular 6spd. gearbox..
9:00 close call
Also, amazing work without a codriver.
faster than when i went i n a motorhome!
10:50 route du paradis .
It had much more than 600 bhp, but yeah, i get your point ;)
At he almost takes a lawn,chair with him 9:02 lol
This video should have way more hits than this.
holy shit how can a RR layout car go on dirt!?!?!? THATS SUICIDALL :DD i love porsche :)
I do not like that sound when he was downshifting
God is always wtaching you : 04:31 Austin-Healey 3000 ;)
almost lost it at 10:30

Damn dangerous track, if u loose controll their, you're dead, on the nordschleife you luckily can't crash down a whole mountain
sketchy dirt section is sketchy
911 GT3 RS
This gave me anxiety
IST JA HAMMER
those Audis were the nastiest sounding cars
what are you talking about? enjoy this drive/driver and not röhrl, loeb, etc. make your own blog if you want to discuss!
i wont go fass like heem
he goes very slow in the parts of the land... Ari Vatanen really the best!
too bad they paved the most of the road...half fun gone...
Suicidal people standing next to the road xD
:D I can do better then that....very nice ride.
Dislike!!!! Ari Vatanen- THE BEST!
