It´s impressive how much braking force this Porsche have before the first turn. It´s also impressive how much the 765 pulls... Excelent driving from both!
That is an impressive match up, and shows the pro's \ con's of each of those cars pretty well. Amazing how much ground you make up on the back half of the track, then onto the front straight it's all over no matter how much speed you carry through the final turn.
You can't compare two cars like this. If both cars were in equally skilled drivers and prime setup (tyres, etc) the mclaren is much faster. Like the MC is better in every single aspect, of a track car, power, weight, aero, chasis, etc
@@nazarpredatorak "If both cars were in equally skilled drivers and prime setup", only nurburgring meets your requirement. Since you said Mclaren is better in everyway, what's the official time for 765lt and 991.2gt3rs?
@@vicwu1660 exactly, you're clueless. Nurb times don't mean that much. Porsche is a know nurburgring tryhard, they attempt lap records on multiple days, multiple tries, multiple setups and tweaks, multiple drivers, perfect track conditions, etc. Most manufacturers don't try so hard. To bring one example, look at the current production car lap record, the AMG one, the record lap was done literally with parts of the track wet, so mercedes could improve the time a lot, but they don't care as much as Porsche. Also you bring up the 720s as an example, yes, it is much quicker than a 991 gt3rs, but it's still more of a GT McLaren, while gt3s and gt2s are track cars, so its better to compare them to mclarens LTs
The driver in the RS is clearly more talented. As great as the 991.2 GT3 RS is, the LT driver was often on the wrong line and braking too early in many of the corners. A more talented driver in the LT would have disappeared after the first lap.
I was watching those horrible lines and the obvious early breaking in the LT, wondering who was driving. They must be learning the car. But seeing some of those lines they took was torture to watch. They realized they were being chased and instead of focusing on the fundamentals. It seems they just wanted to make sure they didn't get passed, hoping the power and dynamics of the LT would make up for all the discrepancies of the driver. 😏
@@amonnanjaku True. Getting it right under heavy trail braking and early on the throttle in the RS makes one feel like a super hero. Of course very few of us - make that none of us - are a Kevin Estra but it’s fun to pretend 😂
Enjoy watching your track vids. Need to make it out to Laguna. Have you ever driven a mid engine Cayman or similar? What’s the RS like compared to a mid engine P car?
The McLaren Senna has been undefeated since 2019 in Car & Driver's Lightning Lap at VIR. No Porsche or any other car driver has even come close to the record.
The Mac driver is clearly not that accomplished, as his lines are wrong and he isn’t braking fully, more coast, then brake . However the Beetle does have the edge in the corners, and rightly so with its much more aggressive front end mechanical grip advantage
Actually 911s tend to struggle with understeer due to a relatively unloaded front axle. The 991 generation onwards incorporated rear steering which naturally takes some of the burden off the front axle. Prior to that, 911s were being spanked by Nissan GTRs around most tracks.
The 991.2 GT3 RS still one of the best road legal track capable cars ever built. Certainly one of the most enjoyable to drive round a track, a very rewarding car when well driven. Its an incredibly engaging car in a way the 992 GT3 RS isn't also its only marginally slower.
@@brianhimmelman420 No its not. LOL its entirely dependant on the driver . It is so little different in the real world that is irrelevant and same driver, it depends on the tires. How do I know, fully data logged 992 GT3 RS at two high speed euro circuits. Can I drive, why yes I can, 5 seasons of Cup. I kept my 991.2 GT3 RS and dropped my 992 GT3 RS allocation for a 296 GTB. I may pick up a 992.2 GT3 RS but it has to come a long way from this technical toy. Perhaps you have just learnt something, but probably not. And as a track toy its useless without the frunk because any sane person that that values safety equipment and basic tools sticks them in the frunk oh wait, you can't do that with the 992 GT3 RS because it hasn't got a frunk. Happy easter you have just been schooled.
@@THEvedaE I logged two in Europe and also own a 991.2 GT3 RS - the differences are very small. So small it comes down to tire choice. The 991.2 GT3 RS is much more useable on street as it has a useable frunk. From a technical point of view the 992 GT3 RS is excellent as it is more adjustable but outside of that the differences in the real world are tiny. In my view the 991.2 is much more visceral - I feel the 992 series is a US market driven car, larger, heavier, gimmicky. I was disappointed and dropped my allocation for a 296 GTB - the 992 GT3 RS is a great car, but lacks the fun factor of the 296 GTB as well as the usability of the 296.
Not rubbish, the Porsche driver is better and more accomplished, and did some excellent driving. With equal drivers things would obviously be different, and always nice to see a well driven RS getting put through the paces.

Excellent driving. Quiet hands. Great entries and exits. All that is needed to keep up with that other phenomenal track instrument.
Nice. But all things being equal, you wouldn't see which way the 765LT had gone given a more talented driver in the Mclaren..
yep Mclaren would be in at the mechanic getting repaired
@@ozwrxstill on that high horse huh? Can’t grasp that one car is just plain better…
That was closer than I thought it would be. That 3RS is pretty amazing in corners and braking.

The 3RS simply doesn’t have the torque of the LT.
HP too

Probably true. Significant power difference. 991.2 RS my favourite model

awesome video. know i want to know how a gt2rs would have done in the same scenario .

holy shit that was fun watching, can't imagine driving woot

Awesome lines. You’re ripping out there
Love the Porsche, and the mclaren. They’re both dream vehicles
Even though the McLaren driver is in front he’s often late and on the wrong line.

Hi, is that the #10 765LT that was running on the 25th as well? I have a few photos for him....
Killing it!
This is the same track raced on in the intro race for real racing 3
Porsche is amazing. Slightly faster in the corners but slower in the straights (obviously).
It’s only faster in the corners because the driver in the mclaren isn’t the best. Put an equal driver in there and the mclaren would have walked away.
Impressive driving...and not sure why I am sweating, just watching 🙂

765 has like over 800 whp . The gt3 probably has around 500 whp .

How do you compare 992 gt3 vs 991.2 gt3 rs on track ? Iam planning to buy one. My usage is 50:50 on street vs track.

Obviously the GT3 is killer in the corners, but the 765LT just pulls away with ease on the straights.
na six vs twin turbo-ed v8, not really a surprise now is it?
great driving!!
Schon krass wie spät der Rs bremst, der lt ist nur auf der geraden schnell😉
MCLAREN UFO !
You definitely take the McLaren in the turns, he gets you on the straights
Porsche moendo para tentar chegar perto e a MclLaren passeando.
Looks like that 765 can keep up with an F1
That McLaren needs more practice on the track. If it was a better driver the McLaren would’ve won.
Hey man nice race but still McLaren serious supercar Porsche can't beat or catch full speed of McLaren 340 km much more 100-300 you never beat McLaren
You can beat the McLaren when it goes in for service lol
