Yeah this thing sounds amazing going up the hill and across skyline. I realized as he was starting to come down the hill that I can't hear Skaife and Crompo chatting away. This weekend coming will be a different story.
@@edismehmedali4666about this track on gt7 , im always mess up at the very last corner in this track....always...9 of 10 times, looks simple corner , somehow got me every time.
@@bukwokBecause even though it doesn't really look like it, there's still quite a downhill slope right down to the breaking zone. Most people think it's flat but it's not
The commitment down the hill is insane too, to keep the fronts gripped up while the track is falling away from you takes such a light touch. I can't imagine how easy it is to lock up and end your day. What is crazier is that the V8 Supercars do it with little to no downforce while inches from each others bumpers. Just a crazy circuit all around.
You get a real sense of speed with the camera angles used. Instead of just following the car up close you hear it go through each section, absolute perfection all round 🤯
most of the shots are way too zoomed in, this is very poor camera work cant even see half the car during the first turn compare it to more popular vidoes from the same track to see what good camera angles look like
Youlden had trouble getting into top gear on Mountain Straight for more than a second, which also hurt his lap time. That would have cost him most of the time gap between the BT-62 and the AMG.
@markhill9275 I remember Alan Moffat (if I recall) saying that they would have a lunch box in the car with some food, strapped into a bench seat That is pretty frightening paired with drum brakes😬
I used to work in Bathurst, I had a company car, I would do many, many laps of the circuit at small hours of the morning. The camera angle does not represent just how steep the dipper section is, (the first turns after the top section before the long run down the hill) and how fast the walls come at you.
A F1 car...in anger....would be a treat too. They say a F1 car will never be allowed to drive the mountain in anger as its not safe enough. But that didn't stop our local open-wheel F3000 boys did it?
Current F1 cars it's impossible but 00' ones can drive there, there's a demo from RB that they did last year also there's a lap from Jenson Button on a 12' McLaren, and you can see the problems of those.
@@MrJTH1985 Yeah sure, Jenson Button and Liam Lawson...but even then Jenson was no-where near 9/10ths, let alone 10/10ths "in anger". And Liam just did some lightly driven demonstration laps, and intentionally slowed on most of his laps, so you couldn't get a full lap time on him. I'd like to see the day...soon...Danny Rick takes a modern F1 car for a few fast laps around the Mountain, sure he would, give it a real hot go on 1 lap!!!!
Far from perfect. “Used every inch” would mean you see the car track out all the way to the other edge of the track on corner exit. He doesn’t do that. He left plenty of time on the table by not using every inch. Good lap, and how could a new lap record not be, but definitely not perfect.
@@ClaytonMacleod He ran literally every single corner from as far outside he could get to as close to the apex as he could get and held speed everywhere. This lap was perfect. Could you physically go quicker? Yeah, maybe like a few hundredths at best. Hardly "plenty of time".
@@ClaytonMacleodSometimes the best line doesn't go physically all the way out. The only time I see him not use the very outside of the track is 0:31, and that's because using that line loses too much speed mid-corner. For all intents and purposes, he used every inch
@@Simoran I’ve raced a long time. I know what is and isn’t a fast line. I know when and where it matters. It matters here. And he doesn’t track out very often here, and he’s slower because of it. It is very, very rare that “not tracking out” isn’t detrimental to lap time. You almost always throw away lap time if you do not track out. If you don’t track out, that is, if you are capable of not being required to track out, you didn’t take the corner as fast as you could have. That’s just how it works. If you can physically turn the wheel and have the car turn more than is required to track out to the other edge of the track, you didn’t take as much speed through the corner as you could have. “Using every inch” literally means using every inch. If you didn’t barely manage to keep it on track you did not use every inch. He’s often in the middle of the track on corner exit. That means by definition he wasn’t going as fast as possible. And that also by definition means the lap was not perfect. The fastest line is the straightest line, unless the subsequent corner sets you up to exit onto a long straight. There are multiple instances here where he does not use the straightest/fastest line. Period.
The ground effect on those cars would be less effective here because the road is far more uneven than it is in Sydney or Tsukuba. Kinda the same story with the 919 Evo needing to run the high line at Karussel during its Nords record.
@@BLITZKRIEG1Lets take in count that nowadays DTM cars are GT3s, and this is a super GT3, if DTM implemented modified and more radical versions of the GT3 machines in that series it would be great

Proper downforce and ground effect package. Even as far a having an active rear wing (which is monstrous) minimum drag down Conrod Straight with long final drive ratio looks very impressive.

Ferrari could name their next F1 car ‘GT3’ to instantly make it “the craziest GT3 car ever built”. But if it doesn’t conform to GT3 regulations, it’s not a GT3.
We are living in the peak of the combustible engine. In a few years time there won’t be that beautiful noise to match the incredible visuals get used to the electric whine.
And mind blowing faster times. If they can incorporate some audio into the equation it may make it more pleasurable for you. Sorta like a ''fake'' orgasm?
Sadly, they don't use that 6.2L engine anymore in their road cars. Sadly, the new AMG GT is a much fatter and heavier GT 2+2 cruiser, unlike the previous proper sports car.
Saw it live, just sounded magnificent. Credit to Bathurst 12 hr organisers for organising great demos. Last year it was Liam Lawson in an RB7 F1 car with blown diffuser.
Esse carro continua sendo um dos GT mais absurdo q já teve, mesmo depois de muito tempo des da saída do SLS, não vejo a hora deles fazer o AMG GT63 GT3❤🔥🔥🔥
Cool video, excellent lap! I didn't realize the GT3 specification allowed for active aero. You can see the rear wing change pitch on braking (adds pitch) in the shots toward the end of the lap. The car does sound amazing.
GT3 does not allow for active aero. This is a GT3 car which has been modified outside of what the regulations allow (such as a DRS rear wing from the old DTM cars) for a special demo run with no official status.
Just from watching it you could already tell the attitude of the car looked really fast and planted. 🤯 I need this extreme added to racing games and sims please. What a beast. Kinda feels like GT3’s version of an Evo 919 😅
You can tell he has incredible knowledge of every turn to be able to achieve that level of proximity to the walls! Even almost lifted two wheels at 0:37!
I went round there once on my Suzuku GT750 water bottle two-stroke triple many years ago - very smooth road, and great fun, especially the long downhill Conrod Straight for max speed, except ... I hadn't planned for the sharp left-hander at the end of the long straight - and slammed on my double-disk front brakes - only for them to fade out completely beneath me - thankfully I eventually stopped in the gravel runoff area without slamming into a fence.
that's commitment.... the team, car, driver, all at their best.... it's a risky track to go that hard. must've been good track temps and conditions too coz that run looked flawless.
The new time was 1:56.605 with a top speed of 308.71 km/h! 🤯

That was quick! Brabham BT62 is also under 2min/ lap without active aero!
Quite a few cars have gone under the magic 2 min barrier at Bathurst. All unofficial not done in a sanctioned race of course.
Youlden had trouble getting into top gear on Mountain Straight for more than a second, which also hurt his lap time. That would have cost him most of the time gap between the BT-62 and the AMG.
BT62 was 1:58 with a gear selection issue, so probably not much in it
The Brabham is a race car made street legal, this is a street legal car made to a race car, BIG DIFF
It s not like Mercedes ran the black series. It's the GT3 car without the air restrictor and some aero
nah he got balls of steel to drive like that at mp
True. That circuit is a real test of driver and car🏁
Watch motor cycling around Bathurst in the earlier decades and then you will see balls of steel.
MP just needs good downforce levels.
@ebfalc watch the early Hardie Ferodo, going around the mountain with drum brakes etc, no safety, THAT is real balls of titanium!
@markhill9275 I remember Alan Moffat (if I recall) saying that they would have a lunch box in the car with some food, strapped into a bench seat

It's a production GT3 car with very simple modifications without ballast and restrictors. That's the gist of it.
Just give it bigger restrictors to reduce power, add some weight and remove the DRS and this car would be eligible for GT3 competition.
