Randy Pobst races the 2023 Porsche 911 GT3 RS (992) against the 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (C8) with Z07 package against the 2023 BMW M4 CSL (G82) — three road-legal track-special models — at Big Willow!

In this world's first test of the 992 GT3 RS, SCCA Hall of Fame race-car driver Randy Pobst delivers the definitive Willow Springs lap times for each of these cars, and automotive journalist Jason Cammisa narrates Randy's laps using time-warp and slow-motion techniques to slow the action for our deep-dive enjoyment.

    Quality of Hagarty content is just world class!
  • @hreeman
    This is hands down the most interesting one-lap coverage ever made in any media. Nerdy, funny, informative, and attention-holding. I don’t think anyone else has gotten that combo right. Hats off to Jason, Anthony, Randy and crew. This is a moment which’ll go down in history
  • @mndlessdrwer
    The people they have doing the videography are ridiculously skilled. This was a real feast for the eyes and all of those references to Randy racing himself were really necessary to remind us that this was composite footage and the video editors really are just that talented.
  • @alexgreen2747
    Epic work, team. The fact a Corvette can just about keep up with a GT3RS these days is insane.
  • @FaresDjebbar
    The fact that Only one driver is driving the three cars, and how they're composited together is insane, the camera movements...Jason being there at the track... World class.
  • @Whomecouldntb3
    The explanation of each corner and what each car was doing or how it felt during the corner was so dope.
  • @_ButtarSaab_
    I'm curious to see how the CSL would fare on the optional Cup 2 tires compared to the stock MP4S it had in the video.
  • @koruki
    Very impressed with the Z06 from a Porsche fanboy here
  • I seriously can't get over how well these videos are edited. Seriously cinematic quality, like, I'd pay to watch these in IMAX. I don't know what we did to deserve this content, but I am so damn happy we get it
  • @philspaghet
    Holy crap THIS is the kind of content I wish the big car magazines would cover! Not just going over lap times but the differences in sector speed and the characteristics of the track! Gotta say the CSL really impressed me here!
  • @coolz9000
    The quality here is stupidly fantastic.. what a production and such amazing cars. The explanation of these corners makes me feel like even I could set a good time in the GT3 RS 😂
  • @gvs376
    So, you'll need to spend an extra $108,000 to gain a 6/10 second advantage over the Z06 at Willow Springs. That's $18,000 for every TENTH of a second. And it's probably more like a $150,000 difference with all the typical Porsche options. Completely insane!
  • @deang8910
    I like how they turned a 1:24 lap into a 15 minute race break down 😂
  • @joshuafoster1772
    Randy is such a humble guy that I forget how talented of a driver he really is.
  • @IndieRockability1
    Hagerty taking YouTube by storm there are no words for the insane amount of editing and production of these videos, not to mention the amazing cast.
  • @sibis4608
    Man the editing! Between the switching of the cars and switching Randy's, I have no words to express the joy of watching this for free on YouTube
  • @Luke-cb3ly
    the editing is insane. watching Randy and Adam Sandler doing what they do best is always satisfying.
  • @GTSCarLife
    Hagerty, Jason and Randy just continue to raise the bar. What an outstanding way to demonstrate the differences between these fantastic machines. Bravo!
  • @dan725
    Why doesn’t this have over a million views? The production, the hosts, the explanations are all supremely high quality that tops any other car media team in the world.
  • @infidel900rr
    Jason and Randy are great together! 👍 Outstanding production!! thank you.
