Over the last few decades, Porsche has evolved its own idea of a sports car with the 911 – one that puts the engine right behind the rear wheels and sends power to either the rear or both axles. At a glance, this may seem like a layout that is not optimal for performance but the Stuttgart-based automaker has proven the 911 is a very capable machine, time and time again. Today, it needs to prove itself against two of the fastest track cars currently available on the market.
Hagerty has a new 17-minute video showing some awesome track action recorded at the Willow Springs International Motorsports Park. There, the new 911 GT3 RS meets a Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and a BMW M4 CSL – three machines that follow different philosophies but still deliver great performance. Randy Pobst gets behind the wheel of each one of these sports cars and makes a fast lap around the track. The video contains time-warp and slow-motion techniques for your viewing pleasure.
