- Factory Porsche racer Patrick Long has a million-dollar historic 911 3.0 Carrera RSR from 1975 to pedal, less than half the horsepower of the fastest cars in the class, and uses every ounce of talent and racecraft he owns in a classic duel between overdogs and an underdog at Monterey.

He is back to the throttle so early on exit. Phenomenal.
Are you watching this video or a different one? Because here Pat is early on the brakes and lazy on the throttle..
Im so surprised how hard they race each other, considering what they're driving! Amazing to see, and Patrick Long is such a fearless beast. Damn.
I was leaning back and forth in my seat. True artistry behind the wheel. Patrick Long is great. I really admire him for being the only American Porsche Factory Driver. See you, hopefully, at Rennsport V in September at Mazda Raceway.
Pat is such an interesting racer... he's so patient.
This is the patience you have when you're driving a +1 millions dollars car with no replacement parts
That's a fair point
Arthur Gourlaouen Good point, but then go look at Leh Keen and watch how aggressively he drives a 1974 911 RSR around the track. I don't think a good racecar driver thinks about avoiding damage to the car. I think they focus on driving the car to its full potential, and making the most of its abilities. Pat's patience can be attributed to his driving style, not so much the car he is driving, in my opinion. Then again, maybe we should ask him.
@@jakemcdonald7462 Not sure if the driver has to pay when the car gets crashed though?
No matter his skill I think id be patient with a million dollar rsr too haha
one of the best pov racing videos, thank you!
I think the white "2.8" must have another 50hp on Patrick Long's 3.0 car. It sails off into the distance every time they come to a straight.
or better gbox ratios
Thankyou for posting the entire race!
Amazing! He was driving that car hard :)
Why is there no "I fucking love this so goddamned much that I wanna have babies with it" button?
16:00 - 17:00 NICE! :D Give the better driver a slow car and he STILL gets the job done! Those corner speeds... WOW!
hat's off for guy in the white rsr 2.8 also. surprised he could keep patrick behind him for that long.
Guy in front clearly has a faster car. Long is a tremendous racer. But cannot shake Mr. Long. The only American factory Porsche racer! Go Patrick!
What an epic battle.
Amazing driving, I bet he enjoyed that. Good weather, great cars, enough room for some nice driving and enough traffic to get in some nice duels. Laguna Seca is a cool circuit.
That 2.8L engine in the 2.8RSR is quite healthy :-)
frustrating to watch - must have driven him crazy - just not enough HP - hell of a driver though.
it's not often that I can watch a Porsche racing video and not yell at the driver for making inefficient use of his car. Pat Long did great, the driver of the yellow 935 was a joke. Pat Long is worthy as an American Factory Porsche driver, but there's another. Tyler Palmer from Oceanside , California has got it all. Speed, race craft, looks, maketability, attitude. He's a winner in every category. Porsche should take notice.
I'm surprised Long had such a tough time passing the #48 2.8 lt Porsche Carrera. The 3.0 RSR is a much more capable race car. It sounds like gearing might have been the problem, 4th being too long and 5th hardly used. Not much he could do against a well driven 935. Fun ride!
"PL Sticks to you like glue" LOL great drive!
Network A sent me here. I cannot believe that I have never heard of this channel before... Awesome stuff!
Thanks for posting! Love these videos.
Fantastic driving !!!
Awesome footage and driving!
I really felt this one :) great POV :)
seriously good driving
GO PATRICK!!!! Phenom!!
Loved it when the Corvette came up alongside. Sounded like it was blowing a raspberry.
Corvette pops in: “Problem?”
thats laguna seca.
monterey?
edit: now i learned that laguna seca IS on monterey.... HA :D
Smoked that jump
He is "driving" more than a F1 racer, even with a fraction of horsepower. A Visor Cam in a F1 would look more as a sunday tour. Very good video.
Ger Downshift lol yeah alright
911 master, T9 passes my favorite.
The Porche 911 3.0 RSR i think 280-290 On the finish straight and corvette stingray 454 7.3 V8 577 9.4 L The small Porche doing god
That green and yellow 911 should've gotten a parking ticket for some of those apexes
T11 passing flag @ 8:33 ....NOPE! lol
talent vs turbo ...particularly at Laguna
Nice to see that even the pros can over bake Turn 6 every now and then...that first pass through was a bit sketchy!
is he double downshifting at times? Hear what sounds like a gear change but dont see hand movement?
the traction of porsche ahead seems stronger
1:12 Oof!
Racing line > power
What camera is used for this?
5:55 what did he do and why is he pointing at him?
thee Mitchi Because he is faster than him..
Not 100%, but I think he flashed the brights and indicated (with his hand) that he wanted to pass because he was the faster driver
What was he messing with, and why was he pointing at 6:10
Oh ok, thanks
Kelsey James He's a way faster driver than the guy in front of him, who had a lot more power but was much slower through the turns.
He's trying to say he's going in for the kill
572 Corvette 9.4 L
5:55 :D
+MrAlexLamus ...and he SAid: ' NOW, STIGness.!! '
+MrAlexLamus What was he pointing at?
The driver in front in an "now I'm getting serious and I'm coming through" kind of way I imagine. Just after he turned on the headlights
MrAlexLamus Ahhhh, I see. Thanks!
I do find it a little errr how can you put it thuggish that a pro driver in a historic race is ragging a car like this against the limiter numerous times! Just seems inappropriate!
a very good ride , unfortunately in very bad Porsch....
