- Ride on board the 1991 Chevrolet Corvette Intrepid RM-1. The '90s IMSA GTP car known for its extreme downforce raced at Historic Sportscar Racing's "The Mitty" event at Road Atlanta. #gwflatout

No reason we can't have sports cars like this today. No reason at all.
Seeing a racing car being driven in anger with a H-pattern shift so evocative. Magic.
I have a minor feeling that car has more than four cogs in the transmission. The driver did work some magic with that manual, though.
@@StarkRaven59 I think its a dogleg box and he never uses 1st. Why would you with that much torque :)
I saw this car race when I was kid in GTP at either Sears Point or Laguna Seca - I think it was Sears.... Look how much much of a contender it is with the newer cars. The era was so cool! The corvette, the silver screaming mazda's, Gurney's AAR Toyotas! It was so cool.
sltillim my favorite by far were the Black Rocket Racing Cutlasses I always made them out to be the bad guys of IMSA
sltillim I saw many of the GTP races at Laguna Seca. Next to the old Trans Am and Can Am, GTPs were the most bad ass cars and racing ever with their grounds effects and gobs of power made for awesome brutal cars.

They were GTO (not GTP) but yes, they we awesome. The Genolozi team then went to Olds Auroras. Excellent machinery indeed.
thanks for sharing, and if I may be so bold to ask, please encourage your friends that race to publish their in car videos especially in these somewhat "unlimited" style endurance cars. It lets some of us less fortunate live through you and your talent.
GTP car slaughtering a P2 car 😃
Love this era of prototype racing, easily the most fun to watch. Great driving on a great track.... Who is the driver here?
2 thumbs down really... probably one of the best race car onboards ive seen in awhile...
Racing sims are getting so realistic looking that you actually have to closely examine and take some time to figure out if you're watching a game or a real life video. It's awesome and aggravating at the same time.
That SOUND - like Beethoven :D
Beast mode = engaged
Highest downforce car ever in GTP and Group C.
It was this one which broke suspension mount bc of downforce load on it?
@@jareknowak8712 Yes really hurt Tommy Kendall
Explains why it was flat out through that kink at the end of the back stretch. Barely even made it look like a turn.
Awesome. Saw this car a few times at Watkins Glen in the historic races.
That's where Tommy Kendall broke his legs. That's why Then Glen created the extra curve which is used to this day. I saw that race and many others at The Glen and LIme Rock Park. Awesome car.
Thank you!
When did they put the 7.2L in the car? I remember the 6.0 and 6.5 later in 1991? Never knew about the 7.2L. Saw a 2 & 3 at the 1991 Mid Ohio GTP and a 3rd at the 1991 Road America GTP. Still upset about the race win at 1991 Lime Rock GTP, being thrown away when teammates Tommie Kendall and Wayne Taylor collided, when Kendall had nearly a lap in hand! Wonderful car! Reminded me of Can Am cars of my youth. Fantastic sound as they went on to power exiting Turn 1 Mid Ohio, powerful yet somehow sweet sounding too.
@@reallyluckyoaklawn8306 the historic series doesn’t have a cubic inch rule.
What was that red car that was in front of him? That thing was seriously fast too.
2007 Lola-Judd LMP1
One of my favorite prototypes
I was there for that event. The Mitty hadn’t been that great since then.
Great track!
Holy shit it's fast.
OMFG what a course 😮😮
and can it reel in the cars in front once it has a clear road 😍😍

Crazy!!!
Looks like a GAME
wow just fucking wow

wow
1:30 oops.
That hurts lol
Synystr7 By the way check out tinshed for the gtpc mod. I can add flat spotting, mis shifting and auto steering rotation with an update soon. Let me know what you think. Choose cars between 82 and 85 for the best quality :)
fast . . . . .
Is this the type of car that Tommy Kendall ran back in the day . to bad the put a dress on road Atlanta with that chicken s*** chicane at the bottom of the hill .
