VALKYRIE AMR PRO NO-RULES UNLEASHED! My First Experience in the Ultimate Track Hypercar

This is the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro! Join me for the ride of my life in the ultimate track hypercar, with Andy Priaulx at the wheel during Hypercar Invitational at Laguna Seca. My complete sense of speed has been totally re-written, there's simply nothing else like it!
The Valkyrie AMR Pro is Aston Martin's complete no-rules hypercar; taking the already extreme Valkyrie and making it even more extreme. With only 40 customer cars (plus 2 prototypes), it weighs only around 1,000kg with approximately 1,000hp from the Cosworth 6.5l NA V12, and can match lap times akin to those of Le Mans prototypes, or in the back of the pack on a Formula 1 grid. The level of downforce would allow it to drive upside down, the engineering by Aston Martin and RBAT (Red Bull Advance Technologies) is unlike anything that's ever be seen, and it is quite literally the fastest track experience you can buy to drive.
Having been lucky enough to ride in the road Valkyrie at Millbrook with Darren Turner, this time around we're at Laguna Seca for Hypercar Invitational and I'm hoping on board the track car with Andy Priaulx. And what an experience it is, there are very few words for this crazy ride, it's out of this world, quite literally.
Huge thanks to Andy, the Aston Martin team, and Hypercar Invitational for the opportunity to experience this. It's going to take some time to recover!
Thanks for watching, Tim

After trying out the launch control and going around a few corners at speed I definitely had a newfound respect for what speed really is. I couldn't help but think "if that was a GT-R, what the hell are F1 drivers doing?!?!" I cant even imagine the feeling of being in a car like this. Just wow.
