When a friend offers to let you drive a Porsche Cup Car on a race track, you just say, "Yes, please. Thank you." When it's over, you want more. I had just finished a race with Porsche Owners Club at Spring Mountain Charleston Peak North, racing our 2020 Porsche GT4 Clubsport. Not quite sure what to expect from a 991.2 Cup Car, I took it easy on the "out" lap and gradually built speed on my first lap. The lap in this video is my second full lap, where I babied the car by short-shifting very early and not downshifting to the correct gear in some corners, keeping the engine far below redline to make sure I didn't damage it. I pushed pretty hard on corner entries and exits, but mis-gauged my braking points due to the higher speeds than our GT4, so this video is not a clinic on how to drive the optimal line, by any means. I was paying more attention to feeling the car, learning the aero in high-speed corners, feeling the grip on exits, and understanding the torque curve of the motor. It came naturally, and I know the track by heart, so there's no drama in the video. It's just a really fast car that puts a big smile on your face - more, please!
