Original description — as written at the time

On time, every lap is within 1:49 +1 second. As I also wrote on the 993 GT2 PCJ Cup video, the surface grip (μ) on the kerbs at Sportsland SUGO in the wet is abnormally low, so I hardly ever put a wheel on the kerbs. The video on the old surface and the video with the comments about SUGO in the wet are below ↓ Link to the 2000 SUGO Porsche 993 GT2 Clubsport PCJ CUP race video Dry video on the new surface (part of the surface is wet) Link to new surface 964 RS - 996 GT3 The 996 GT3 is riding along during a driving school as well, so whether it is showing its real spec is a moot point, please bear that in mind too. Note that the audio has been cut.

タイム的には1：49+1秒以内で全て周回しています。 993GT2 PCJカップの動画でも記載していますが、雨のSUGOのゼブラの路面ミューは異常に低いので、ゼブラに乗ることはほとんどしていません。旧舗装の動画並びにSUGOWET時のコメント記載の動画は下↓ 2000年SUGO ポルシェ993GT2CS PCJCUP レース動画へリンク新舗装でのドライ動画（一部路面はWET）新舗装 964RS-996GT3 へリンク 996GT3もドライビングスクール中の同乗走行であり、本来のスペックを発揮しているかは微妙な点なのでその点もご考慮ください。なお音声はCUTしてあります。

先日SUGOにて走行会に参加する。あいにくのWETコンディション。コース上はSPインコーナーと馬の背立ち上がりのみドライ SPインへの進入は急激にグリップが回復するため絶えずオーバーステア気味・・・それ以外はほぼWETでのコース状況 RX-7はヨコハマのネオバ 964RSはパイロットスポーツカップポルシェ964RSでは４時間の走行のうち３０分ほどタイヤが暖まりタイヤのぬれが無くなったときにベストラップ１：４９秒台これ以外は１分５０秒前後のタイムこんな日はがんばってもしょうがないので、そのタイムのままFDで楽しむことにする。

Period	Car	Best	Tire	Length	Summary
2005-09 estimated	Porsche 964 Carrera RS	1:36.997	Michelin Pilot Sport Cup	1:54	Dry throughout, with the personal best improved by about 1.2 seconds. Rated a time that stands comparison with that year's PCJ Cup results.
2005-09 estimated	Porsche 964 Carrera RS	1:40	P-ZERO CORSA (other car)	3:10	A 964 RS chasing a 911 GT3 RS. A record of the time coming down from the 1:45 bracket on day one to 1:40.
2005-09 estimated	Porsche 964 Carrera RS	No lap time	Unknown	1:56	A heart-stopping shift-lock moment in the wet at Sportsland SUGO. Published deliberately as a symbol of how frightening WET running is.
2005-09 estimated	Porsche 964 Carrera RS	No lap time	Unknown	3:55	A 911 GT3 RS spin recorded from both the onboard and the following 964 RS. The sense of being pulled away from on the straights is on a par with a 993 GT2.
2005-09 estimated	Porsche 996 GT3 RS	No lap time	Unknown	6:05	996 GT3 RS running.
