Jun 04, 2021
Known as the Nurburgring queen Sabine Schmitz is famous for offering passenger rides around the scariest track in the world. He also races there as part of the tough vln endurance championship. Joining me today at Cadwell Park in Lincolnshire, England, a twisty, hilly track known as the Mini Nurburgring, we're finding out if the Porsche 911 can maintain its title as our favorite sports coupe by pitting it against its new rival, the mighty BMW M6 Sabine. It has raced both bmws and

porsche

s so it is the perfect test partner so

sabine

we have I have the best Porsche 911 ever built and the most powerful BMW Coupe they have ever made, which would you prefer before we drive them?
porsche 911 carrera vs bmw m6   tiff vs sabine the full challenge fifth gear
Yeah well

tiff

I would say the Porsche will be the fastest but the conditions are very tricky so the BMW is very very powerful and I think the balance is easier to handle today I'm going to take the BMW you you are the lady the choice is yours oh thank you very much the most important skill of any sports coupe is the ability to take corners quickly test one you will see which car has mastered the art better using GPS timing

gear

we will see who can maintain the minimum speed the most High on this fast right-hander.

The minimum speed is at which a car must slow down to take a curve safely, the higher it is, the more grip a car has, we will do a race with the electronic stability control on and another with it off to find out If the car driver aids can make it faster and safer, so now I have put this ship in race mode. It was really very fast when I started living on it, the wheels were already spinning, so the torque is very, very high for the first round. Let's see what you can do with traction.

Yes, it is turned on with a little force? suspension in the proper race mode this is called charlie it is the correct name in english for a corner that is something that is observed when looking at the v-box 16. the technique to take a corner quickly in the bmw is to try not to have understeer when you turn because it's such a heavy car, what's going on with that correction? Yes, around 65 66 oh that's bad, with the BMW's stability control it manages 65.2 miles per hour, but Sabine could feel the brakes being applied as the car's electronic brain tried to keep it from spinning out of control.

You feel the traction break, oh yeah, let's see if the car will go faster with Sabine free of electronic interference. Yes, on the last lap of the race, there is a group of cars behind you. You have to enter that corner as fast as you can. can you charlie hand over the kids that are in your head this way this is what counts sorry that's the judge it was around 66 it changes very quickly I'm not too sure of the exact number we'll check again Sabine goes faster with the electronics off 66.2 miles per hour 67 no, come on, don't understand the Porsche the main problem with the BMW is understeer with the front wheels losing grip first.
I'm worried that the Porsche will suffer the same problem thanks to its rear end. mounted engine the 911 has a lighter nose than the front engine BMW a recipe for even more understeer so I'm going to leave the stability control on the plasma now it's much lighter this should suit the

porsche

ah I feel like it's been rubbed like hell not like the 75 lima oh that's not fair the porsche has much more overall grip and does 75 miles per hour with the electronics on it immediately felt better than the bmw but it did understeer somewhat when trying to push it as fast as you. but being lighter and more agile, it adjusted its line more easily than the big BMW.
I'm going to turn off the stability to show that I can go even faster, obviously I think using my wonderful skills you're too old to drive without shoes. I started, but I've had enough of Jason for the potato, okay, now do it, I want to see your age in front, turning very early, yes, very good, very good. I was too afraid to look, but it might have been 78. In fact, it was 78.2 miles. an hour 12 miles per hour faster than the BMW, but as expected, it's the front wheels that come loose first. If I could improve the Porsche I would just make it turn a little better, just understeer that frustrating amount that you can't reach. the power is as strong as you would like at the beginning of the corners but that's not the end of this test, the previously damped track is now dry, but it's a little drier, we'll go, yes it's totally dry, ok drag underwater, we will go.
Get out in the BMW now and just see how fast you can go. Yes, so we give Sabine and the BMW a chance to improve on the grippier surface. The result was 75.3 miles per hour better, but still not as good as the Porsche. The result was fair because the Porsche is a racing machine that at first seemed like a big difference; in the end it was only about two or three miles per hour, at the end of the first round against the 911. It's time for the second round of my sports coupe showdown with Nurburgring legend and endurance racer Sabine Schmitz.
The Porsche 911 Carrera S beat the BMW M6 in the first round with more grip in the middle of the corner at the limit oh that's not fair, now we will see which car is better when the limit time is passed to drift a little, like this This is how it works Sabine Will now tries three drifts in the BMW M6. Your score will be the best. I'll give Marx out of 10 for style and entertainment. She will give it a maximum of 10 for how easy it was to drift the car. He talks too much, even though drifting is a motor sport. in its own right and a lot of fun, it actually serves a purpose because you find out what a car will be like when it's almost out of control but not completely out of control, so it's a good test of a car's ultimate handling capabilities, okay? ?

sabine

let's make your first attempt bmw make some brilliant drifters but the m6 isn't one of the best its 4.4 liter v8 is turbocharged and the problem with turbocharged engines is that there can be a slight delay between pressing the accelerator and the engine revs to the floor.
Well, I push the accelerator to the floor, I know it

full

y, but nothing happens. Take a time. You know, I think it's a turbo. Then press the accelerator earlier. Well, I'll try it. Remember your delay. Predict the delay. The understeer that stopped him. In testing one has reared its ugly head, good drift requires the rear wheels losing traction while the front wheels grip, but the front end of the m6 just opens up, I think that's what they call understeer, I mean a little tail wag at the end, but I mean. What about the middle of the curve at the beginning of the curve?
Grandma's practice continues, give me another chance. Finally it is a heavy beast and it is a difficult job to make the car turn, brake and skid on command. Do what I want. Go to the side. I bet you've been blaming the car the whole time in there. I'm wet, I'm sweating. I'll give you, I'll give you eight out of ten for that from the outside it looked like a proper slide, but for ease. If you do, what are you going to rate the BMW out of ten for a seven to seven? Yes, okay, perseverance paid off, great, no thanks, I'll go get the Porsche, yes, okay, my turn, okay, grandpa, come on, your first success, grandpa.
I'll show him hello, was that what you wanted, cool stuff, looks great, geez, I'm going to have to work harder, I thought it would be easy in this Porsche, of course, it's the track's fault, not mine, the skid It was surprisingly difficult, action from both of them. the bmw and the porsche and that's mainly the nature of the room we use here at catwalk park because it's downhill and it flattens out so the weight transfers naturally just when you don't want it to come boy come on we're ready yeah . There are two races left and Sabine is obviously tired of my excuses.
She better try harder this time. Well, that's the last try. Well, like a slightly more Scandinavian film. Ultimately, she didn't do it as good as I did, but close, bravo, I thought she would. I beat you easily, but this corner is tricky today, isn't it because there is a wet piece at the beginning of the apex? Yes, I know Porsche very well. The thing is, he understands why it's light in the front, yes, but if you can make the rear work. the weight keeps spinning, it sure is like a pendle you know, so I'd say 9.5 oh great, I'd still only give it an 8 because actually the handling wasn't easy, that's pretty good, yeah, like that that the Porsche wins again in the end. it was a fair result the 911 won the drifting was easier to do even though both were difficult it is not easy to drive both cars in the time limit for the climax of our sports coupe showdown with sabine schmitz so far our current champion the Porsche 911 has destroyed its new rival, the BMW M6.
The third round is the last chance for the big projector to get a victory. The test is a quick lap against the stopwatch and the M6 ​​looks good although it is heavy. It has 157 more breaks than the Porsche and a better power-to-weight ratio so Sabine can set the benchmark for lap times. I had a feeling the bmw might have produced a surprise result. Now look, we have another 157 more braking horsepower than the porsche, another 177 pounds of torque can't see anything, yeah, you know it needs more horsepower because it's heavy like a boat. I'm going to prepare the stopwatch to start the clock.
Now the big problem is the brakes. Oh, I thought you'd break a little sooner. you braked early, I don't know why, but I've never driven an m car like the m5 or whatever, with the right brakes you could have broken the number at least another five meters later, it's not always very comfortable to have the pedal soft and fade out and all good good I like it I like it I like the power the bmw car felt good from the passenger seat it was just the driver closed the corners blindly over the ridges obviously this nurburgring she is used to you know being a hooligan break break break The goal is a minute 42.3, you have to stop very early with that strong blow.
I think you let go 10 feet early at the end of the straight, yeah, but I didn't trust the brakes. My turn in the Porsche, which is equipped with optional. 6,000-pound carbon ceramic brakes, so what it lacks in muscle power it could make up for in stopping power. Do you think I can beat the BMW? No, I'm not, but probably yes, he's very comfortable with the track, he knows every little space, every little detail. rock here about 128 seven miles now at the end of the straight it's just, I'm not sure Sabine was all that impressed with my driving, but she didn't say much about the screen, Adam, that's good or bad from the seat of the passenger. very very static and powerful and in the corners many G forces penetrate deeper into the corner 50 meters later than what I did with the big screw going up the mountain from the mountain grab your hat I left it with my butt my hair was I am light as a feather, don't ruin it.
I was expecting the Porsche in front because Tiff is a very good driver. Porsche is a very good car and has good expensive brakes. One minute forty-two point three to feet. Oh, and the last minute. 40.2 oh in 2.2.1 seconds the result shows the importance of braking power we believe that half of the porsche's advantage is due to its better brakes the bmw is available with carbon ceramics like the porsches for £7,500 but even with Those wouldn't be so fast that you shrug your shoulders with 157 less horsepower but still faster at 20 seconds, wait, wait
