I have been driving for the first time at high speed and long distance with Porsche 911 GT3!
* The photo while driving is a video taken from the dashcam later. I'm not shooting while driving.
Porsche911 GT3 991.2 tires are Michelin Cup 2
Currently attached to my Porsche 911 GT3 "Michelin cup 2It seems that the tire is the best tire for driving on the circuit, but it is very slippery when the road surface is wet, such as when it rains, and it controls the car well in the unlikely event that it slips. It ’s too dangerous for me, which I wo n’t be able to do.Michelin Pilot Sport 4S I was planning to replace it with a tire called ".
Until I changed the tires, my husband issued a "high-speed driving (outing) prohibition order" because "it is dangerous if it rains unexpectedly when I go out".
but. My husband has something to do and plans to go to Fuji Speedway on the holiday of October 8th. When I hear that, I don't think I can't go (laughs)! !!
I decided "It's okay if it's sunny!" And looked at the weather forecasts of Tokyo and FSW every day until October 8th, saying "Oh! Precipitation probability changed from 30% to 20%! Maybe I can go!" , I was thrilled every day by myself ← Really suspicious (laughs).
And on that day. From Tokyo to FSW, the weather forecast is only cloudy and sunny, and the probability of precipitation remains 20% ...Tokyo AmeshEven if you check the feeling of clouds, it seems that it will not rain at all. Beautiful "cloudless" situation @ morning time.
Porsche 911 GT3, my first high-speed drive
"You can go this!", I slammed the highway ban (laughs), and about two hours after my husband went out to FSW early in the morning, was it late? So, I am also leaving for FSW. Of course, the car is Porsche 911 GT3 991.2! !!
Exige-san is the cool Lotus before you start running! !! It feels good (laughs).
It is the first high-speed & long-distance drive in my own driving in GT3. In the city, I could only step on solo solo, but if I get on the highway, I can't drive solo solo.
Porsche GT3, the best! !!
You have no choice but to step on this! For the time being, I accelerated and ran. thoughts? ?? Impressions of running? ?? Do you hear that? ?? No, no, no, one word! !!
"Teeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Already the best. Even at high speeds, I felt the "heavyness of moving the car" that I felt when I stepped on the accelerator, but it was also natural to say, "Oh, what, even if it's heavy, you just have to step on it." I came to a good conclusion and realized that "If you step on it, you will run" is the most enjoyable.
Well, I can't write the speed (I have to obey the law!), But at first I was flirting with "Oh! I'm a little scared to step on any more" up to a certain speed. When the speed exceeds that speed and reaches a certain speed, the speed itself is really stable, just because the "displayed value" of the speed is increasing. Are you up too? ?? With stable acceleration that I thought, "It's bad, I can put out more and more", beautifully "Stable running that dispels fear".
Then, this time, the battle with my reason to "I can speed up as much as I want!" (Laughs).
Even on curves, at the speed I run, GT3 runs beautifully and as a matter of course. amazing. Instead of slowing down before the curve, I'm looking forward to accelerating when the curve comes.
Porsche 911 GT3 991 late model fuel economy (high speed)
By the way, the fuel consumption of GT3 when driving at high speed went up to 9.9km / L. Of course, I ran without worrying about eco-driving at all, and it was a number like this. With Spoeki ON! This is the time of the highest fuel consumption value taken when stopping at a traffic light at high speed ↓
At the end, I ran down the road and arrived at FSW. Enter from the east gate.
Before that, I ran to Fuji Speedway with GT3, so I took a commemorative photo. One person is completely in a state of climbing (laughs).
I'll post more about what I did at Fuji Speedway on my blog at a later date, but after spending some time at FSW, I'll be back to Tokyo soon. For me, "running" was the number one purpose of this time.
Experience the rain at high speeds with 2 Michelin Cup tires ...
The Tomei Expressway, which returns from FSW to Tokyo, is definitely congested in the afternoon, so I wanted to return before I was caught in the traffic, so I was dismissed from FSW early.
I was wondering what it would be like to go back and forth from Tokyo to FSW in the morning, but I was so happy that it was too great and I enjoyed running too much!
Well, that's why I'm on my way home. The "high-speed driving ban" was issued when it was said, "It's dangerous when it rains unexpectedly when you're out, but you have to go home at high speed."
I ran it to FSW without permission. Oh oh. God understands. "It's completely dangerous to do such a selfish thing! For the time being, try running in a light rain as a punishment."
… And it's really fast, and it suddenly rains (laughs)! !! !! I was threatened with "dangerous", so the moment it rained, hey! !! For the time being, I immediately changed lanes to the middle lane (laughs).
As soon as I entered the middle lane, I was brainwashed as "It's dangerous if it rains" and "I slip when it rains! If I really slip and have an accident, my husband and everyone in Porsche will laugh! (←) Eh (laughs)?) ”, And changed to safe driving so that the cars in front would disappear in a blink of an eye so as not to cause an accident (laughs).
Slow down and drive safely anyway! At the moment when I was driving in a fluttering manner, even though it was in the middle lane, it was fueled by a Toyota car (laughs).
No, no matter how much it is fanned, it's raining so I can't overdo it! I ran hard and safely. Well, this is also a good experience. My feelings were full of the desire to take off and pull away, but that was rational and safe driving.
Driving with Lamborghini on the first GT3 high-speed drive
While doing so, the rain stopped in just a short section, and it returned to cloudy, so I started running happily ... Lamborghini-san was in front of me! !! Oh. This is another miracle! !!
Since I was able to drive with Lambo, I wanted to take a picture to commemorate it, but suddenly there was a broken car, so there was a temporary traffic jam. Since it was a full stop, I was able to miraculously take a picture of Mr. Lambo!
And this Lambo-san, maybe he was frustrated by the heavy traffic, and he said, "Well, are you having a fireworks display there?" Running.
It's amazing, I was entertained from behind thinking that this was a firecracker or a fireworks display, but the moment I entered the tunnel, this Lambo-san. I'm sure this was shown to me behind me as entertainment (← so it's too positive to think about it (laughs)), but Bobobon! It became even more intense and started to blow fire (laughs). It's too amazing! Looking from behind, it was too fun! !!
If you pass next to the broken down car, you will be able to run again. Let's run with Lambo! But unfortunately, Lambo got off the highway soon after.
When I was running thinking about it, oh. This time Porsche 911 discovers Carrera S of the late 991 model ahead! We ran together for a while ~.
It was also fun to meet and run with wonderful cars at high speed!
The Fuji Speedway GT3 round trip, which was a lot of fun, was the best. I feel that the feeling of stepping on GT3 was a little understood by driving on this day (compared to the previous hero hero), so I think that I can drive a little more sharply in Tokyo from now on (laugh) ?? ??
…perhaps! !!
I'm Rika, the author of this article. Ever since Porsche 911 became my favorite car, I've become totally addicted to Porsche, and I can't stop loving Porsche, so I started this blog. My favorite cars are 911 Carrera (991.2), 911 Carrera Cabriolet (992.1), and 911 Carrera T (992.1).
