- www.motorsportvideo.tv Christian Gläsel im Sauber Mercedes C11 beim Rennen der Gruppe C in Spa Francorchamps im Mai 2011. 2:07min im Qualifying hätten auch beim 1000km Rennen der LeMans Series in 2011 noch für Startplatz 6 genügt!
Gruppe C - Alles Andere ist nur "Autofahren" - Auta a dopravní prostředky
It's amazing how effortless the car moves from the outside, but is an absolute handful on the inside. Love it. One day, I'll join the ranks as a race car driver.
The roar of the Sauber vs The scream of the 787b
I'd pay so much money to see this.
Saw this beast at Donnington UK in 1989 aged 10. Loved it then. Saw it at the Historic Festival this year and still love it. That sound! How could anyone not like this. Awesome is the only word to describe this car. Thanks for the vid.
Just 10 sec slower than the last Porsche 919 Pole Position for the 6h of Spa!
Incredible for a car designed 25 years ago!
Berridge is a lot faster in the same car.
way more down force and the 919 has the hybrid system. its just the top speeds aren't even close to these old brutes.
Bo Huggabee They still do better than 330 km/h. There's absolutely no reason why say a Porsche 919 wouldn't be just as fast, if not more so.
TheThirdMan the 919's top speed is 211mph. but it generates a ton more down force and with all that massive amount of torque that is instant due to the hybrid tech. its all about average speed, and if you don't get to use the top speed of the c9, its useless against something like a 919. on the old mulsanne version of le mans. the c9 would give the 919 a run for its money. but if the c9 can only top out at 211 instead of 248 before needing to brake and turn. then with the 919 carrying all that speed through the turns, superior brakes, and instant torque/acceleration. the average speed goes up considerably. the 919 is also lighter than the c9 and has nearly 200 more hp.
c9 generates nearly 5000 pounds of downforce though. i couldn't find the 919 downforce specs. though if the 919 generates more than that at a lower speed. then you get much quicker cornering.
what is sad is how the one:1 was cheated. it has more power to weight than the c9. generates more downforce. when they went to claim a lap time record, spa put up noise regulations and shut them down.
what an epic run, the C11 was screaming for help, fabulous shifting managment lol
Absolutly amazing skills.
I saw these cars racing at Donington I think in 1990. the Mercedes was the greatest and best sounding car I ever heard. it blew every other car away. awesome.
Robert Hudson yet for some reason bmw fanatics thinks mercedes is an old mans brand. They don't even know motorsports history.
I saw this car ~1990 on the Group C race on the Nurburgring driven by M. Schumacher. What I remember most is its sound. And even then I thought that it's just way ahead of its time.
Thanks for uploading!
That was excellent.....I enjoyed it all, but the qualifying laps on board were great as well.....The throttle adjustments through the slower corners was a delight to hear, that car is such a Beast, one of my all time favourites, such a Grunty Sound.
Thanks, one of my favorite cars.
The Sauber's roar vs The Mazda 787's scream vs The Peugeot 905's scream !
Amazing. A true brute of a race car. Merc v Jags fantastic era.
You get the sense that nothing would dare overtake this 😂👌
Thank you for the outstanding driving lesson!!!
Sweet sound. pure motor roar. Cool car. thx to gt5 I got to come across this car. beautiful car.
Best sounding Group C car,end of.
The best post-WW2 racing car, possibly the best ever. The sound is not from this world. Group C - the greatest era in sportscar racing.
Excellent Video ! Wunderbar!
So happy about being able to watch this !!!! I'm wondering if this was filmed with an GoPro-Cam ?
just tucking amazing, new fav video
Awesome sound
God damn, what a fucking machine. What a privilege to drive this thing too.
"The silver arrow"
Does anyone know what/why he pulled out that switch/lever at 2:30 ? I mean,these cars were engine,driver,wheels and that`s it,right? No electronic this or that drivers aid`s
What a glorious noise to massage my ears
@2stroke4Me I guess also shows how much modern tyres can help old cars.
The legendary Silver Arrow a another lemans legend favorite
Qualifying record set on this track: Sébastien Bourdais (Peugeot), May 08,10, 1m 57s
Sauber Mercedes C11 from the Group C era: 2 m 07 s
Very impressive!
One amazing car! And he sure knowns how to drive it!
Gibts da nen Video davon? Wäre der Hammer...
Ratio long, but good powerband. Big machine thanks for sharing!
Pity the sound quality dies after 1:50.
If car beauty was based on sound, this car wins hands down, it also happens to be gloriously shapely on the eye.
Was this a ground effect car? It sure as heck does corner well!
European V8 Sound, fuck yeaa..
I love all v8s well crossplane to be specific
impressionnant,fantastic,2:07MIN
group C ftw wish we still raced them
Mann, der Shot nach 1:23 ist ja sowas von genial...
Wow it popped out of gear at 7:50! I think it did it once before on the previous lap into Les Combes.
This car is designed for Le Mans?
so awesome, so unbelievably awesome. lmp has nothing on these old group c. 248 was this cars top speed...
Der Benz C11 ist ein Monster
Yes, it was.
A real handful.
Forza Motorsport Caught that Unreal Sound man im so happy !!!
This thing looks seriously quick around Spa... says a lot for Swiss engineering as well, although some credit must go to Gläsel !!!
car and man almost as one. we knew the car was great! on this day i think the driver was just as good or better.
I am guessing that he qualified.
Wunderbar C11
Dat turbo whistle!
You said it!! I have no idea where they get those engine sounds from. They are absolutely terrible. Nice post.
That just got you a subscriber.
How nice is it when your car is a rocket and faster than anything on the track.
only 4 gears?
22 years old and lapping Spa within 6sec of the unstoppable Audi R18 E-Tron.
OOOOH YEA that sound
on reconais bien le son de la gopro ^^
Shows you just how much of a fight the 787b must have put up! Poor ole Johnny Herbert must have been shitting himself! I wait for the day when we see the any Sauber Mercedes (c9 or c11) on track with the Mazda 787B.
you are so right. i can´t belive how bad the sound in gt5 is. And the tyre model isn´t the best too. The C11 is a master piece.
C9 goes out on August 7th on Forza 4. Curious to see what that is going to give...
@hendrixexperiencedig The C11 didn't win at Le Mans, it came 5th in 1991 (with Schumi)
The Sauber C9 won at Le Mans in 1989.
EVILSPAWN1000 my guess is a brake bias lever, its not electronic I don't think
that would fit perfectly in the GTP¨category...
...and the enigne scream:" Sock it to me!" =D great sound thanks for uploading =)
Only a few seconds off of Bob Berridge's record
Yes dude can drive.
Other drivers probably don't need to use their rear view mirrors...I bet they can feel the thunderous vibrations from that hotrod Mercedes V8 as it closes in on them
With 5.1 speakers u can get a nice sound
C11 car won all but one race of 1990 World Sportscar Championsip. And probably would have been a contender for Le Mans win too, if they had not boycotted (?) it.
Yes. This car was designed by a Swiss team and has the engine of a thoroughbred German manufacturer, but its engine note screams 'Murica! But in all seriousness this is the most beautiful sounding group C car equal of the 787B.
MrSpetznaz You forgot the Peugeot 905
American V8s can't stand those RPMs
I know, but I remember reading something... perhaps boycott not the right word:
"Coincidentally, the agreement was reached some time after the deadline for entering the WS-PC. Thus teams had to make a decision about registering for the series without knowing if the main race of their season would have championship status, or indeed if it would take place at all.
This worked two ways: for some, such as Mercedes, there was relief that the race would not be compulsory. (...)"
@Porschefanatic100 Pitty The Gran Turismo guys can't capture that unreal V8 sound.... one day - one day I hope!!
Great run! Shame about all the traffic..
почему в GT6 он так не звучит?(
So what happened at 7:51
i know right. when i was playing the 4th gran turismo i used the sauber and its like ??? really? it sounds like a formula 1 car not a strong v8 type of sound.
Wie viele es von den Legendären Silberpfeilen wohl noch gibt ?
Zur Zeit ist ein blauer zu Verkaufen
👍
1:32 is that Nissan r92cp Amazing
This fine piece sooooounds as gooooood as it lo_oks...sssssiLky ssssmmOooooth ;)
please PD ! we need this fuckin car !
now if games make simulaters for racing like this, they gotta make it look like this!
See The Best Part in 1:37
To those 6 people who DISLIKED this video. YOU HAVE NO SOUL!
Si estuviera activo el Mercedes C11, se come vivo a toda la parrilla de Le Mans.
@Ecselsiour A bigger pity is that they can't get the rights to put Porsche in the game! Think of the 917 but yes this sound is ungodly and remember when they won LeMans and finished 1,2 and 5.
the 24h of LeMans was not a part of the World Sportscar Championship. They just decided not to start there.
the engine rattle sound like my m102 when he release the gas pedal, uber alles mercedes benz!!
The rules are simple for all other drivers, - if you see something silver coming behind you, get away (of course if you get enough time to see) :)
0:00
5 speed transmission.
Wlell that was an overly long intro.
Anton Hofreiter und 9 Grüne Freunde von ihm waren hier. 😁
The Mercedes C9 sounds just like this in Forza 4.
Shame GT6 doesn't sound like that
Race Room Racing does though...if only they had Gruppe C cars. The Gruppe 5 and GT3 cars sound awesome though in game. Probably the best I've heard in a game period, especially in-car.
Project Cars does have Gruppe C cars. The Mazda 787B and the Sauber C9. Both sound amazing!
Errorxdable Yeah, I haven't played since the 787B was added and the Sauber was no where close to completed by the time I fell off in seat time with the game. I may have to revisit it, but been hella busy with work. Thank you for the update though!
Chris Robinson
You are welcome!
Doesnt sound as good from inside its the gearbox making all the noise sounds awsome from the track side this and the mazda 787B sound awsome
a time when gas cars dominated lemans :)
Should've warned the headphone users about the turbo's...
#TOTALLYWORTHLOSINGMYEARSOVER
william birdine The high-pitched whine is the gearbox, not the turbos.
Sounds almost like NASCAR
Der Sound is halt genau der wie man ihn aus den ganzen Simulationen kennt.
Nope, Nissan R90CK
1 dislike?? MUST be deaf.
