The Holy Ground of Time Attacks<\/h3>\n

The N\u00fcrburgring is a world-famous, ultra-challenging course known as the holy ground for time attacks by car manufacturers worldwide. My husband has been practicing relentlessly on the N\u00fcrburgring in Gran Turismo on PlayStation<\/a>, trying to shave off even a second. (I wonder where he\u2019s headed with this\u2026)<\/span> I believe he\u2019s run it over 100 laps, and he says he has memorized the long course of over 20 km perfectly. Recently, he drove it in a 911 RSR and recorded a lap time of 7 minutes 7 seconds. (Not world-class, but pretty fast for an amateur, he says.)<\/span><\/p>\n

He often says, \u201cSomeday, I\u2019m definitely going to drive the N\u00fcrburgring in Germany for real!\u201d and plans to keep practicing until then. By the way, the new Panamera Turbo actually ran this N\u00fcrburgring in 7 minutes 38 seconds<\/a>.<\/p>\n

N\u00fcrburgring Lap Records<\/h3>\n

As a sports car manufacturer, Porsche has repeatedly rewritten the lap records at the N\u00fcrburgring, the holy ground of time attacks.<\/p>\n

In 1983, driver Stefan Bellof set the fastest lap time of 6 minutes 11.13 seconds<\/strong> on the N\u00fcrburgring Nordschleife in the “Porsche 956.” This record was so fast that it was said at the time, \u201cIt will probably never be broken.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Time passed, and in 2013, although not a race car, the “918 Spyder” broke the 7-minute barrier, which was considered impossible for a production car, recording a lap time of 6 minutes 57 seconds.<\/p>\n

Then in 2017, the “911 GT2 RS” set a new record for street-legal sports cars with a lap time of 6 minutes 47.3 seconds on the N\u00fcrburgring Nordschleife.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, in April 2018, the new “911 GT3 RS” slightly improved on the 918 Spyder\u2019s record, recording a lap time of 6 minutes 56.4 seconds. While not the fastest N\u00fcrburgring record, it cut the previous GT3 RS\u2019s lap time by a remarkable 24 seconds.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Feat of the 919 Hybrid Evo<\/h3>\n

Then in June 2018, an incredible record was set. The race car that Porsche seriously modified, the “919 Hybrid Evo,”<\/strong> recorded a course record of 5 minutes 19.55 seconds. In other words, it broke the 6 minutes 11.13 seconds record set by the Porsche 956 in 1983, 35 years later, by nearly a whole minute.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n*Behind Porsche\u2019s \u201cAll-Out\u201d Race Car Breaking N\u00fcrburgring Record After 35 Years<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Porsche is a sports car manufacturer that combines “sports performance” and “practicality,”<\/strong> allowing you to go shopping right after circuit driving. It\u2019s impressive to see that this mindset has been faithfully inherited and reflected in product development even after decades.<\/p>\n

What About Other Records?<\/h3>\n

Besides the N\u00fcrburgring course records, Porsche has set various other records.<\/p>\n

\u2460 Le Mans Most Wins Record Extended<\/h4>\n

In 2015, Porsche won the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the first time in 17 years since 1998, extending its record for the most wins at Le Mans to 17.<\/p>\n

\"\"*Image & Article Source: Le Mans 24 Hours, Porsche Breaks Record with First Win in 17 Years Since 1998<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\u2461 Cayenne Sets Guinness World Record by Towing a 285-Ton Jumbo Jet<\/h4>\n

In 2017, at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, two “Cayenne S Diesel” and “Cayenne Turbo S” vehicles sequentially towed the massive 285-ton passenger plane A380. The Guinness World Records certified this, making the Cayenne the heaviest aircraft ever to be towed by a production car.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After the Guinness record attempt, the two Cayennes reportedly drove back from Paris to London without any issues.<\/p>\n

\u2462 On September 18, 2018, New Cayenne Turbo Achieves Europe\u2019s Highest Bicycle Speed Record<\/h4>\n

The new Cayenne Turbo towed a bicycle on a runway in the UK (about 3.2 km long)<\/span>, breaking the approximately 40-year-old record of 217 km\/h by reaching 240 km\/h, setting the highest bicycle speed record in Europe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When the speed reached 177 km\/h, the tow rope was released, and the cyclist closely followed behind the new Cayenne Turbo, using the slipstream to accelerate further.<\/p>\n

The Latest Is the Best<\/h3>\n

Porsche continues to set various records. Their attitude of never settling and always challenging is probably why \u201cthe latest Porsche is the best Porsche.\u201d As a Porsche fan, I still dream of experiencing a lap at the N\u00fcrburgring at least once.
