EPIC Onboard at Abu Dhabi in Porsche GT3 Cup 

This is awesome. I wish sim racing could capture this kind of excitement (without 10 grand in peripherals). I think the way the camera follows every little head movement 👌

1:17 "He's gonna make the lunch" my man is literally cooking🧑‍🍳

Such an amazing insight, thanks so much for taking the time to share these! Can't wait for more full race vids!

What other class of cars were on track besides Porsche Cup?

My man living the dream, absolutely epic! Thank you for your videos, can't wait for full race vods!

not the 2021 abu dhabi 😢

Best onboard vid channel on yt right now. You're hard working man Dirk. I hope you're balancing well between work and rest. As a young lad doing what you love for a living it might be quite hard. Anyway, all the best for you and the team. Pozdro666

I don't know if you've noticed but the water level is alarming!! Must be really annoying after a while lmao Nice driving man, thanks for the video

Did you change youre camera? It looks diffrent with the shift lights

Hello from indonesia🇲🇨

TLDR: Everything was good in the next day XD

1:17 you read my mind 👌😂

Such a nice view 🤗 i always waited for some1 like you 🤙🏼

Good luck at 6 o'clock, I trust in your potential to win or get a podium

Incredible stuff, I wish there was telemetry so I could improve my racing💪🏻

I was watching you do your shake down it was beautiful (i was in the first hair pin inside the karting building) i saw some f4 action to it was fun :D

It's videos like these that make me a die-hard fan and why i love sim racing. This makes me truly appreciate what you drivers do. It's an amazing art that takes time to perfect. It's simply amazing to see!!!!

1:17 Toto, It’s called a motor race. We wen’t car racing

I think you may have best onboard footage on the internet...it is truly amazing and reigniting my love of motorsport.

I love the comments on pit exit! 😄 I'm still getting goosebumps 😀

Ahhh Yas Marinas Circuit a beautiful and amazing track Turn 2 & 3 remind me of Silverstone then onto the long straight to the heavy braking zone Loved the POV fun racing here on SIM or all sorts of racing games seeing it IRL and now a POV from you 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thank you for sharing. Excellent driving. So cool to watch you drive around the over steer while passing cars and that Alert message! 😂

A man that water level alarm 😤

Stellar racing man! Happy for you and so envious! 👍👍👍

i always use your car's livery in asseto corsa

Love your POV videos❤ Btw, this Porsche Cup is Carrera Cup Middle East or the Creventic 24H Series?

Amazing footage Dirk. Perfect time of day. And you were in the zone too...was amazing to watch. Thanks for sharing with us!

Youre one great driver, my guy. Rooting for you to make it into GT3 or maybe even WEC/IMSA. Cheers!

❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥

Fantastic, more please.

“it’s a late lunch by Verstappen, who takes the meal of the race”

I never look at my dash in my speedway car 😂 Only if it sounds weird, there’s not enough time to look at it otherwise Looks great :D

YAS Marina Abu Dhabi circuit is a great example of an all around track with esses and two long straights and a couple of double apexes, it’s no wonder F1 and other classes race here. ❤❤❤

What a driver! What a car! What a sound! Incredible 😮

I'm protesting that you're not posting up longer content in car! haha Keep it up buddy! I'll watch no matter the length!

Great driving and what a place to do it!

Wow. Incredible job dirk 😊

Hi Dirk, how are you overtaking cars from so far behind on straightaways? Is there something superior about your car's setup? I'm new to racing. Thank!!

Steering ratio looks so low compared to iracing! Cool vid man

HI, I just started getting in to sim racing, and been enjoying driving the Porsche CUP 3 GT3 car on Assetor Corsea and racing on Spar track. What does it take to get in to real world racing? I been using a sim setup for a couple months now and been learning the basic, for example, Tyre pressuer/ setting up the car, Getting better at driving and learing differnet breaking techniques and how to conroner better and get better times. I am currently been pushing around 2:24 on Spar with my Sim racing and don't know if that is good or not, but I been practising. Have you got any pro tips and what it takes getting in to racing and thanks.

Fun fact: UAE RMC championship has one race on the calendar which happens on the f1 circuit. Theres a special layout for karts only.

correction on the english - it is a lunge not a lunch. Great video... living the dream

Hello Dirk, small question: to remove the "Fuel warning" from the screen in iRacing, you have to press and hold a certain button on the steering wheel for 2 seconds, is that also the case in your car? Groet Peter

Great video and driving, Can I ask why you said its a gt3 cup when? I thought porsche gt3 992 cup doesnt have abs and TC?

hi man I want to tell you how you can become a GT racer. I often see RU-vidrs playing Gran Turismo 7 and it makes me want to become a GT racer, and I saw your channel. you are a RU-vidr and GT racer. if you see my comment please answer my comment🙏 btw congratulations on becoming a GT racer👍

I’ve always wondered, why do the straight cuts sound so different than someone like Kevin Estre’s Porsche?

It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that "lunch down the inside" was "lunge"

I know one thing Raceroom racing has the sound down perfect on the GT3 Porsche. It sounds exactly the same.

nice video. What was the best looking car for you on the track (apart from your Porsche of course 😅)?

Epische video dirk waar kan ik de porsche carrera cup volgen komend jaar ik ga je aanmoedigen thuis op de bank en op het circuit in assen met de jacks racing day

Got to be the best start to a videos I have ever seen “Hamilton sees it coming”

Hey Dirk, what settings are you using? Is this heavily edited in post with grading? Looks crazy good!

get in there, Dirk!

hey Dirk, could you please make a video on how you started racing? would love to hear it from you!

0:05 bro just made music with a porsche 💀

Ich glaube ich würde damit ziemlich bald ziemlich abfliegen weil ich den Sound und das Shiftlightkino zu sehr genießen würde😂 991/2 GT3 hab ich auch schon mal gefahren ist schon ein ganz anderes fahren als beim Turbo. Man gibt Gas und hat Respekt😊

water ahahaha

What race will you be in this weekend? I can't find you on the 24h series staff :(

I was at the track on Thursday doing a tour of yas marina, when i was at the pits the race teams let me in to see the GT3 cars. It was an unbelievable experience to see in person. Wish i could have made the race

Nice! Thank you for sharing.

Would you let me borrow that car for like a couple of hours ? (I promise not to crash it !)

Thank you for posting this cool POV. Good luck in 2024 !

I know this was probably practice. But in a race how much of track limits can you use before you get a penalty?

I don't know you but you are a good runner. I like how you run and I'm excited to see you. !!Greetings From Argentina!!

So awesome I bought a RC kit of the 1988 VIP car Lol

That Porsche sounds amazing! How distracting was the water level alarm? Or do you start to ignore it after a while?

My fav car❤️

Good job bro, those were some nice overtakes!

It looks like a good karting track :)

tbh I'm not sure anymore if this is VR with a lot of assetto corsa mods or if this is real.

What would your advice be for someone who wants to turn this into a career?

I would like to ask for knowledge. Why is there a water level alert?

Hey Dirk, just here to alarm you about your water level 🚨

isn't it lunge or i am just being the most boring guy at party LOL

What's that alarm you kept getting in the first 2 laps?

Yes yes Dirk, this is was so right

Such a recognizable curcuit.

Thought it was sim racing from the thumbnail

I wish I had an infinite supply on money to do this cause I would absolutely love every single moment of it. Hearing the Porsche like that after thousands of sim hours driving it is unreal. I would give anything to drive a lap around abu dhabi in that car!

I have a simple question, why are you going this wild on turn 1 ? I feel like you don't need it.

This is sick af!!!!!!!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🥴

👍💪

Do you race on the sim? What’s ur setup?

So the red ACK button is you responding to instructions from the pit?

i love these videos. the car sounds amazing. Have you found a sim that does a good job of recreating how the cup car drives? I currently use ACC and AC and wonder just how far off they are to the real thing.

hamilton and verstappen were definitely having lunch at the corners that night

Listening to all thoase video are just music for my ears 🎧🎶🎶 Love you're content too wish the best for you and keep the work up soldier! ❤❤❤

Hi Dirk! Will you be trying out the Red Bull Ring in the ACC?

That pitlaine limiter. Is it always that jerky? That looked so jarring. Great pov too. Clean and stable loved it.

did you record anything from the race?

do these cup car have decent aerodynamic changes with ride height , like it GT3/GTE race cars ? Or ride height is kept at lowest , since i believe its quite high up from ground already even at lowest settings

Never understood the hate for this track once they added the two hairpins. You ever had the chance to race at Dubai or Kuwait? From what I've seen they both look like cool tracks.

Awesome mate! Give us the vlog ;)

А чë у него чек иногда подрубает?

Этот Water Level заколебал )) Офигенное видео!

I hope you know you’re living my dream. Amazing stuff man!❤

Good Luck Dirk 🍀🍀

clean driving, thanks for the experience Dirk and smakelijk ;)

we loveeeee it !!!!

I wish my rig was this good as yours 😢
