      This is true, not sure what it was exactly, just a combination of the carbon airbox and 9krpm flat six bouncing off the walls I think that hit the spot.

I am now able to live the dream atleast through your videos, Luke. Please, never stop doing what you do. You deserve all the praise and much, much more, and I hope you are able to reach even further than that.

    Controversial opinion but I reckon I'd take the Spyder RS over a GT3. What an utter masterpiece, and you've managed to showcase it better than I could possibly imagine. Might just be my favourite video of the year.

    • @franzhuber7361

    Love the MGB. I had a 67 MGB GT in british racing green for 3 years, which I sold last year to make room for the ultimate dream car, an ice green metallic 1977 Porsche 911S. The Porsche is a better car in every way possible, but the GT is such a fun car and I have so many great memories of that thing. I had to bump start mine frequently as well 😂

    I recon they removed the barriers for winter closing so that the snow will not brake them.
    You could improve driving open by manually setting the heater facing to you and in the foot area with 25 degrees and ventilator on max.

    I just did those three passes on October 19th (Süsten, Furka, Grimsel) with my 23 911 GTS that I picked up from Zuffenhausen. I live in the US, so this was a nice European Delivery trip. I saw a Spyder RS like this one at the Werksabholung building in Zuffenhausen, but was more interested in the 911 S/T they had. ;)

    Guard railings have been removed so they don't get damaged by snow pressure or avalanches. Once drove over Grimselpass as one of the last cars before winter closure and it had no railings at all on the south side hairpins, not even the poles left like in this vid, which felt very odd (north side has mostly stone guards).

    Heated seats and steering wheel in the Spyder are key, and obviously the stick. I’ll put the RS on the rack when I find the right one and I’ll drool every time I look at the bucket seats but it will bring mileage anxiety. A spiced up manual Spyder (BMC’s OAP’s and Porsche’s valve program defeated) with 3 pedals and heated comfy seats is the best driving experience on offer today.
