As far as I know, going sideways and keeping the Carrera GT in control is not an easy job, so kudos to the guy having the skills and the balls to do it! Enjoy.

996 GT3 following a Gallardo near lake Garda, Italy

Martin — Mon, 05 May 2008 00:49:38 +0000

A few days ago, I posted a video where the latest Porsche 911 GT3 was presented. This time it’s the previous generation 911 - 996 GT3, and it’s chasing a Lamborghini Gallardo. The action is taking place somewhere near the lake Garda (Italian Lago di Garda) in Northern Italy which seems to be a good choice to get the maximum of your car’s capabilities and test your driving skills. Yes, there are some drawbacks - public roads and traffic.

Find out more about lake Garda on Wikipedia (linky). You can also download the video posted above in better quality if you enter GT3000.com, then click Videos, Country Roads, scroll down and click on Lago di Garda (67 MB).

What a stupid mistake. I feel sorry for that Carrera GT. The sound when it falls down is horrific.

Cayman S review by Motorvision

Martin — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 01:20:14 +0000

The nimble sportscar by Porsche is being driven by Tim Schrick for the German tv show Motorvision. The Cayman, compared to its Japanese rival - the Nissan 350Z, gives better times at the following: braking, slalom and handling. You can see it almost jumping from corner to corner at the end of the video on the handling track.

One of the best sounding V10 engines

What is the recipe for having one of the best sounding cars on the planet? First, buy a Carrera GT, then install straight pipes and here it is. Watch the video to find out that some people even get scared by that loud engine.

Street racing on the highway - a battle between a Supra and a 996 Turbo… and then a Volkswagen Golf ruins the show. Owned!
