1 I want to control Porsche 911 freely

It is a Porsche driving lesson several times from beforePorsche Truck Experience (PTX)OrSunako JukuI participated in such a driving school and practiced various things in order to understand and know more about my favorite Porsche 911.

At first, the practice of "steady circular turning" in the lesson, which was a practice of running around a circle, started from a place where I didn't understand anything, "Why do you just run around?" I have come to the point where I can understand that "practice in this steady circle is very effective and important for understanding the behavior of the car" (learning is slow).

Furthermore, when that happens, I started thinking "I want to know more about Porsche 911 and be able to control 911 more freely by myself", and my goal is "to be able to drift with 911". It was March 2021 that I made it one of them.

At the Sunako Juku held in March, Seiji Ara from around the world taught me how to drift in 911, which was the first time in my life.Experience that "I was able to drift only 10m"I was doing ^^

After that, due to the situation of Corona, I could not practice drifting easily and finally at Porsche Experience Center Tokyo (PEC) the other day, againI was reminded a little of "the feeling that Porsche slips"About.

And this day, just a few days after that PEC. I'm going out at 911 with excitement again from the morning.

When you arrive near the meeting place, start with gasoline refueling as usual. I'm ready to run now.

If you add gasoline here, the degree of excitement will rise at once. "Well, I can run now !!"

So I arrived. I arrived at the gymkhana field at Tsukuba Circuit.

On this day, everyone at Porsche Club Utsunomiya chartered this and held a driving lesson ^ ^

I, who does not belong to any Porsche club in Tokyo, was able to participate in the Porsche club Utsunomiya-sama's event through various connections.

This is also a connection with the Porsche owners that Porsche connected, and I am really grateful for such wonderful encounters and various things.

At this driving lesson event sponsored by Porsche Club Utsunomiya, there are many people who have knowledge and ability not only about Porsche but also about driving cars in general, including the chairman, so driving very carefully from such people. I was able to teach you about techniques and theories.

Furthermore, since it is a small group system, it is possible to run a lot. This day is also a really dark day ^^

Since I was able to practice in a steady circle, my husband as well as me participated this time.

My husband is participating in Fairlady Z.

This is a driving lesson event sponsored by Porsche Club Utsunomiya, but if you write it first, it is "very good"! !!

To be honest, it was an event that made me think, "No one knows about it, and I would like to continue to participate secretly." Ah, how small the vessel is ...

However, everyone at Porsche Club Utsunomiya is very generous and wants to have fun with a lot of car lovers, so I would like to introduce you crying and crying (← small vessel) Fully open (laughs)).

You do not have to belong to the Porsche Club to participate, but if you like cars and want to practice, you can participate as a visitor.

There is a participation fee, but it is almost as much as the necessary expenses such as the fee for renting out the Gymkhana field divided by the number of participants, so it is too conscientious.

If you would like to participate, please contact Porsche Club Utsunomiya, or contact me by email, SNS, comments, etc. ^ ^

* However, facilities such as Gymkhana are full of reservations, so it seems that it will be held several times a year instead of being held every month.

Porsche 911 drift practice at Tsukuba Circuit Gym Kana

By the way, I would like to write about the time when I participated on this day.

We also sprinkled water on the Gymkhana field (it was a nice day, so we sprinkled water many times on the way).

On this day, you will first be taught various basic knowledge (from application) in a classroom lecture, and then you will start actual driving.

Watering with a watering car just before I made the first run. And when the watering is over and it says "Well, please" ... This is it, but take a look!

After all the start time is "9:11"! !!

After all, I wrote that even when I practiced drifting for the first time in March 2021.The time when the first one started was 9:11It is ^^

The moment I saw this start time, I was convinced that "Today will be an absolutely good day." Simple (laughs).

When driving, PSM (Porsche Stability Management System) is OFF ↓

At first, the chairman taught me what to learn in a steady circle by practicing from basic to some extent.

In response to that, I also started again from the basic place.

For the time being, I went back to the beginning and started with "feeling oversteer and understeer", and then I thought I'd try "spin" ... but it's been half a year since I practiced in March. The above has been over, and I forgot even this feeling of "spinning". * The other day I slid at PEC because the method and situation are different.

I was shocked that I couldn't even slide (spin) as I wanted, and I received a new professor from the chairman and everyone else.

As a result of being taught, I was able to spin the 911 almost 100% if I got the hang of it little by little and thought about "spinning".

This is nice ^^

But that's right.

This "spin 911" of mine does not lead to drift.

No matter what, I just spin it, just slide it, and it doesn't go to a slide in the form of a beautiful drift.

It was really hard from here.

I can understand it myself. What was said was "to be able to slide at a lower speed". That is painfully understandable in theory. I understood 100% (probably) in my head.

But I still can't really control the 911 like that. Originally, you should be able to drift start at 30-40km / h. However, in my case, I can only slide at a speed of about 50km / h.

It's pretty violent or forcible to think that I'm going to slip, or it's just like "I'm gonna slip for the time being!"

I know.

When the people who taught me this time drift the car, and when Mr. Ara did it before, everyone really said, "Well, I'll do it" from 30-40km / h. The drift will start soon after it makes me think.

But I can't start sliding the 911 unless I feel like "Uhhhhh!".

What is this difference! !!

I don't communicate!

At all, I haven't got to know 911 yet! !! !! And a painful feeling.

In the afternoon, a person called a master arrived from everyone, and the master also taught me directly.

Master, it is now available in the new Supra.

The Supra of the actual car that I see up close for the first time. Is that a Supra? It was really cool! I thought the actual car was many times better than the photo.

I also put it in the passenger seat and let me experience drifting and donuts in Supra ^ ^

In the afternoon, I was motivated by the professor of this teacher, and even more!

When I suddenly look at the window ... Yeah? Somehow, there is garbage on the window of Mr. Black Carrera.

That is this ↓

Wow.

From my point of view, this only looked like Pegasus. The intensity of my beliefs (laughs).

However, I felt like I was being supported by Porsche, and I became more "OK, I'll do my best!"

* I would like to write about the relationship between Porsche and Pegasus again.

I don't care about the digression, but anyway, I just run around so that I can understand 911 with my own sense.

I'm jealous that I don't understand 911 ...

I was really jealous of that, really.

I was jealous when Mr. Ara ran my 911 before. "In my driving, (911) doesn't run like this, but Mr. Ara listens to what he says so honestly."

This was also the case.

When everyone else drives my 911, the 911 starts drifting beautifully from low speeds as a matter of course and slides beautifully as a matter of course.

But when I take the place of driving, it doesn't slide beautifully with the feeling of "what?"

I know that everything is my lack of ability. I understand.

Even so, I realize that "Oh, I love 911 so much, I love Black Carrera, but I still have a crush."

I'm jealous of everyone else being able to manipulate the black carrera beautifully. This is really. "Why?" I don't understand why. When.

After all, I still have a crush on my favorite 911. tough.

No, I'm happy to be able to enjoy the unrequited love situation like this ^^

Believing that one day we will be able to communicate with each other, I would like to continue to enjoy the days with 911.

After all, on this day, I still couldn't run 911 as I expected. But I'm sure it's a little more advanced than before.

It's just a little bit (probably not over 10m before (laughs)), but I still feel like I've realized that I can slide this way.

It's only a few meters, but sometimes I felt like I was able to drift. There is still more.

By the way, my husband, who participated with me on this day, seemed to have had a very fruitful day, and I felt a great deal of response, and I was able to make a round while drifting in a steady circle. amazing!

Oh yeah, there was also a woman who came to visit Boxster on that day.

It makes me happy to meet a female Porsche driver. This time it was only a tour and a little experience, but I thought that this would surely impress Porsche with even more fun.

I was happy to meet the female driver ^^

I will drive the Porsche 911 GT3 Touring Package

Finally, the person who participated in the Porsche 911 GT3 (991.2) during this drift practice said, "Please try this car as well. I think GT3 is easier to drift." rice field.

Still, with this driving technique of mine, it is impossible for people to drift try GT3! I thought, I ran only in the parking lot first. Thank you ^^

It is a Porsche manual car that you do not have a chance to drive.

Furthermore, this time it is GT3. Impressed.

I was worried that I could drive a GT3 MT, but even though I hadn't driven an MT car for several months, I managed to drive normally.

I was wondering if MT of GT3 would be more difficult, but it seemed that I could drive happily without such a thing, and it was an experience that I wanted to have Porsche of MT in the future.

I had a lot of experience in the passenger seat, but after all GT3 is good. The sound and running are really great.

I know it's too wasteful for me, but I still want it.

I hope one day I can enjoy GT3 again ... This is also one of my dreams now. After all it was GT3 which became a longing car ^ ^

On this day, I just ran from the start of running at Tsukuba Circuit Gym Kana at 9:11 until the end time of 16:00.

Even so, it was still not enough for me, and I was full of thoughts, "If I could do it a little more, I would be able to get a little more knack!"

It's because I'm slow to learn.

I couldn't get the hang of it, but in the end I got something like "Good luck with the award" from Porsche Club Utsunomiya (sorry, I didn't know the official name and named it Tekito ... (smile)).

I received Martini Racing's espresso cup and saucer. Cute ^^

Is this the last prize for someone at every event? It seems that you can get a gift. I'm really sorry, but I was very happy.

You cherish. From now on, every time I see these cups, I think I will remember the day when I played with Carrera in a steady circle ^^

I'm really thankful to you!

Black Carrera does not get dirty

First, here is a picture of the black carrera taken before the start.

Please redo the glass coating at the end of June, Shiny and slippery.

It got a lot dirty after 16:00.

Jet black metallic black carrera is almost pure white.

I always get so dirty that it turns white after taking a driving lesson, but I also love Carrera, who gets so dirty after the lesson.

I thought I had a lot of fun together, and I ran as much as I got dirty.

But ... the dirt this time was pretty bad, was it because I had to do a steady circle and have a glass coating even if it got so dirty? I just washed it with water and it came back shiny, but this time it didn't.

Hmmm. why?

I just had it recoated just a couple of months ago ... no, of course I don't think it's 100% clean.

Even so, if the stains on the glass do not come off even if it is coated with glass, maybe the black carrera who participates in driving lessons does not need to be coated anymore?

… It was an event that made me think about various things.

When I see Carrera, which gets dirty and doesn't get dirty at all, I'm really sad and crying, but after receiving various advice from Porsche owners, I'm currently ordering a drug that seems to be able to remove the dirt.

I would like to report on the black carrera that has become dirty and has not returned cleanly even after washing the car.

On that day, it took 10 hours and 10 minutes to drive home after leaving home at 5:38 in the morning and heading for the Tsukuba Circuit.

The mileage was 200km, which was not a big deal, but it was a day when I was driving for 10 hours.

Speaking of the average running speed, the maximum speed of drifting is 50km / h, and the way back is congested, so it's not a big deal (average speed of 20km / h (laughs)).

However, it was a really very happy day to enjoy running with Black Carrera for 10 hours.

I'm still far from being able to control my 911 at will.

Still, I feel like I'm getting to know each other little by little.

From now on, I would like to become more and more unrequited love, not unrequited love, so that my black carrera will recognize me more and more.

This time, everyone who drifted in my car said, "This 911 is a little difficult (to drift). That's a safe car, an excellent car."

In fact, if you are a person with skills like me, it would be difficult to turn off PSM and try to forcefully slide, so it is safe and secure that you will not slip unless you drive in the city every day. I was able to reaffirm that it is an excellent car.

He also advised me, "Isn't it better to try it on 911 after practicing with a car that can drift more easily?"

But after all, my purpose is not "I want to be able to drift anything" but "I want to be able to drift for the purpose of knowing more about my black carrera", so I want to be able to drift with my 911 Only important to me.

Anyway, I want to control the 911, which is very good as a car, as I thought it would be difficult even if I tried to slip so much. ... I think so, so I would like to continue to find opportunities and practice somewhere.

I dream of one day when I can communicate with 911 more and more.

It is a Porsche that makes me want to understand more as much as there are things I can not understand by letting me run various things and experience it.

Thank you to everyone at Porsche Club Utsunomiya and everyone who participated on this day for a very meaningful, intense and enjoyable time.

After all Porsche is the best! !! … After that, I just managed to get the black carrera clean ^^
