Great videos it's 5:30 am in Texas waiting on an electrician to install a 20 Amp dedicated outlet for my Kranzle power washer, otherwise after seeing these videos I would start my car up and go for a spin. Though, not sure the neighbors would enjoy the Porsche engine roar at this early hour.:sleep:

That's rather early! Sorry for teasing you with the videos. ?

The GT3 chasing video – the driver said he couldn't shake the 718, in the corners I was on his tale, the straights were where he started pulling away from me. These things handle so well.

The 718 mid engine design is so well balanced it's a pleasure to drive especially on curvy roads, great car. I have said this many times before but I was very impressed with 718s low end torque/pull. IMO, it was much more fun to drive than the 6 banger on the 981.

The first video out the back of the GT3 works really well and is amazing for both car and mountain scenery. I'd be interested to know what sort of attachment and camera he was using. Amazing it didn't fall off!

You need -1.5 or -2 exposure compensation in your second video to help with the outside/inside light contrast.

Really hope you can post some longer footage! Great stuff!

It was filmed using a really old GoPro (Hero 3) so I wasn't that concerned about loosing it. The other guys on the trip had Hero 7's and the difference in quality was night and day. I'll upload some footage from the Hero 7's

That's a good idea, what about the one on the back of the GT3 filming you going up the mountain. That one is most impressive and you rarely see that perspective but is arguably better than the front view.
