How would you feel if a Gran Turismo champion drove a real Porsche 911 GT3?

To Ashiu for the last time in 2019

As I noted in a recent article, late last year, theYoutube channel "GTSport Broadcasting Station"MC Rico Otsuka and GT player Tatsuya Sugawara visited our home.

At that time, since it is so important toGo to Ashiu Driveway and have world-class GT player Mr. Sugawara drive your GT3!It's called "the
My daughters and I and Rico were in the Panamera and we were to follow along.

Mr. Sugawara has loved Porsches since he was a child, and has always admired the GT3, and this was the first time in his life that he drove an actual Porsche.

What a surprise!

Mr. Sugawara, who is usually a calm man, was notI never thought that the first Porsche I would drive would be a GT3...!He was very excited.

After crossing the Ashi pay gold station, my husband and I switched drivers, and Mr. Sugawara took over driving the GT3, even though I am sure he has experienced many nerve-wracking situations in races and the like.
."I've never been so nervous to drive a car in my life.He said, "I'm not sure I can do that." He laughed.

The awesomeness of Porsche.

We asked Mr. Sugawara to actually drive the GT3.

Fast! It's just fast! If you step on it in second gear, it will be amazing in no time. I was like, "Oh, my God!You can't have it on public roads.I now understand what they mean when they say, "The brakes are great. And the brakes are amazing.They say Porsche brakes are the best in the world, and they really are!I thought it was.
The most important thing for a car is to stop. Nothing will happen as long as the car does not move, but once it starts running and does not stop, it will lead to a serious accident.
When you think about it.It is amazing that the brakes are so firm from any speed range.
Steering control is also as good as it gets. It turns like a stick! But that doesn't mean it can't be used on a daily basis. If you want to drive it normally, you can. Amazing!

He was very much praised by the audience. Good (LOL)!!!

Meanwhile, my husband, who was in the passenger seat experiencing Mr. Sugawara's driving

I knew the champion's run would be smooth.I've been a passenger for many people on this road, and I'm by far the smoothest and most skillful of them all.
He never turns the car by force, he just drives smoothly and in sync with the car.

I was impressed. After that, I asked Rico to ride in the passenger seat of the GT3, and Mr. Sugawara drove the Panamera as well.

As a Panamera lover, I was looking forward to seeing what kind of feedback I would get, but according to Mr. Sugawara

I knew it was totally different from the GT3! Sleek and luxurious!But a Porsche is a Porsche.The brakes also have a little more play than those of the GT3, but the feeling of a quick tap at the back of the car is as expected.
Being a sedan, I thought the steering would be quite playful and lax, but it is not at all. Amazing! This thing doesn't tire me out even on long distances!

He was praised for his work.

The children had already fallen asleep in the back seat.I'll drive slowly because I feel sorry for your child if I shake him too much!He said. I thought he was a gentleman in that way, even though he was still young.

Finally, I asked Mr. Sugawara again how he felt driving the Porsche.

I knew that boxcars were...I don't want to force the car to turn, but I want to consult with the car and ask it, "Can you turn? and listening to the car as you drive.I think it's a good idea. I think this is better for the car and makes it run faster.

And. I see.

After all, people who are good drivers and professionals all say the same thing. I remember the same thing being said by an instructor at a Porsche driving school.

Glad to see that Rico had quite a bit of fun with GT3 on this day! Here's what happened on this occasionThey will also be broadcast later in the "GTSport Broadcasting Station".

The day ended with Mr. Sugawara and Rico signing the uniforms that Mr. Sugawara wore in the World Series.

It had been a long time since I had interacted with young people, but it was a very enjoyable and meaningful time.

Thank you very much, Mr. Sugawara and Mr. Rico.
