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.
My personal best in the Porsche 964 RS, 1:36:997 Tyres: Michelin Pilot Sport Cup Tyre pressure: 2.3 bar Temperature: 20-22°C A big improvement on my personal best. Conditions are often wet turning to dry, and this time it was dry from start to finish for the first time, so I have cut about 1.2 seconds off my personal best. Going by what various people say, the Yokohama A048 does set better times after all, so from next month I plan to switch to the A048 The result of this July's PCJ Cup Temperature 22-17°C (Sendai City), dry or wet unknown? 10 July 2005, PCJ-CUP Round 3, Sportsland SUGO N class 1st 993 GT2 Clubsport best 1'35.642 2nd 996 GT2 1'36.603 3rd 993 GT2 Clubsport 1'36.814 Even compared with the A048 the time stands up well. Well, this is probably about the limit for times in a Porsche 964 RS. I am looking forward to seeing how far the times go when I switch to the A048.

ポルシェ964RSでの自己ベスト1：36：997 自己ベストのタイムを大幅に更新。 WETからドライというコンディションが多く 今回は始めて最初から最後までドライでの走行ということもあり、 自己ベストを1.2秒程度詰めている。 911GT3RSでの初日の走行で、当初は1：45秒台でしたが 1:40秒までタイムがのびてきましたが、そのときの動画 他人様の車なのでほどほどにせめていますが、 基本性能が非常に高いため簡単に1：39秒台がでました。

| Period | Car | Best | Tire | Length | Summary | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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. | ||
| Porsche 964 Carrera RS | 1:49 | Unknown | 6:57 | Every lap within 1:49 plus one second. In the wet at Sportsland SUGO the kerbs have extremely low surface grip (μ), so they are barely used. Audio removed. | ||
| 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. | ||
| 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. | ||
| Porsche 996 GT3 RS | No lap time | Unknown | 6:05 | 996 GT3 RS running. |
