i love how much of a driver chris harris is and not just a journalist and talk host

What a beautifully elegant cockpit. EDIT: What a beautifully elegant slide at 2:33 !

I remember a time when Chris Harris told us that he wasn't a classic car guy. That it wasn't his world. I think we all know that ain't true anymore. And I am the happier for it.

Wow those were some massive steering wheel inputs.

Nice job, especially considering you were on what look like space savers.

I can't believe how much this reminds me of NFS Porsche Unleashed!! The 356 was so tail happy and they captured it perfectly in the game. Great driving and epic slide at 2:33. Congrats for 2nd place.

That catch at 2:33! Proving again what good of a driver you are! Loving the video and especially the car.

This video combines two of my favorite Automotive entities, the Porsche 356 and Chris Harris. A win for everybody!

One car reviewer who can actually drive competitively as well as drift. Nice one Chris.

I watched this yesterday on the goodwood channel and was blown away but this man's car control and sheer bravery. Chris you're a nutter in the very best sense of the word. Thanks for sharing this twice.

awsome driving man!that was Incredible. and what a beauty that porsche was!

Very nice driving Chris. You really got the most out of this beautiful and rare car.

Chris is one helluva driver. I don't care that he's not doing more car reviews, this is a petrolhead's wet dream content - keep up the good work mate.

It's great to see these cars raced and not just for show. If you had the top end of the Jag you would have won easily.

There's nothing I love seeing Chris Harris do more, than slide classic racecars around.

Was watching this live, I have to say i was pleasantly surprised when i heard the name Chris Harris :) Great second place.

Real bottom clenching moment at 2:32. Great work, Chris. Good to see you driving this gorgeous classic Porsche fast.

Unbelievable the amount of work he is having to do to keep that thing in shape. Really makes me appreciate what I drive today.

Chris feeding that steering like a rally driver. Chris please follow up with a commentary about this event and especially that 356...those skinny tires must of been a blast to be on.

Respect, MASSIVE respect, Chris you are a really good driver and ofcourse great journalist. Watching you fighting the steering wheel and constantly sliding in this porsche was almost too satisfying :)

I would love to drive a 356. It is one of my dream cars. If only I could drive it like you, Chris..

Some damn good driving Mr Harris as usual! Car control on point!!

Well done sir! Thank you for sharing a wonderful car driven to the limit.

IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL.

Watching videos like this make me realise why I will probably never drift a press car on a public road. Superb car control.

I could watch this back all day. Just listen to that engine. 👌

Nuff Said , Top car, driver and bloke , we want more please.

CHRIS!! I miss your input. I'm hanging out for more! Come down under and smash out some laps at Albert Park in March (F1 Grand Prix) here in Melbourne! I can't wait for what you have in store! keep up the excellent videos mate. This channel is Always my number one go-to for my daily car fix. Cheers

Goosebumps ! What an awesome clip ! Thanks so much for sharing this, very cool. Take care

Lovely edit.., lovely race.., and what a lovely car. Well done lads...

Wow absolutely wonderful driving!!!Keep it on Chris!

Awesome to watch these beautiful cars looking like new and great that they are still being used and raced. Well done Chris coming in a very well driven 2nd.

goddamn I'm suddenly happy I stayed up until 3am

This is way too awesome!!! I am super jealous right now!!!

Absolutely amazing driving skills Chris! There was some brown alert in that 2:33 recover? AMAZING.

Wow, fantastic racing! Very impressive driving. Just full throttle all over the place.

LOL 2:32...99% of us would've stuffed it into the wall ha-ha. Amazing driving as usual!

This race and this video are great, soooo great ! Nice job Chris

That was fantastic,wow the steering ratio looked scary haha. Like steering a bus! and the 356 one of the most beautiful bodys ever

Lovely! Yeah you had to fight it there at 2:33 - gave me a scare! That Jag just had a bit more top end than you did... Amazing you get to do this sorta stuff mate! I'm honestly very jeally!!

It's fantastic watching him drive.

Great video. The sound...

Great driving Chris!

Nicely done Chris 👍👍👍

Well done Chris! That start was near perfect I would say! I guess there is nothing to do about the power/brake difference. Great driving.

Wow, great driving! Congrats!

I have no idea what happened at 2:35, but it looked proper scary...

beautiful car and even nicer driving skill. Thumb up Mr Harris!

I really just love the idea of racing cars that aren't the absolute cutting edge but are more about working with the car, sliding around a bit and having a lot of fun!!!!

I dread to think how much that motor cost, and sliding it around at high speed on ancient suspension is just another day in the office for Mr Harris. The guy's a hero.

these cars ares just phenomenal! as well chris harris is as ever brilliant!

What a race!!! Thanks!!

Chris Harris and Porsche for the Win!!! He was really struggling with that old beautiful Porsche. ";-)

Rich Piana is my favourite natural source of Chris Harris

Great job, Chris! And what a car!

That was bonkers. Very well done.

Chris thats an awesome bit of driving I can see you driving the 356 at the Nurburgring :))))

Great edit Neil!

Awesome I've enjoyed this.

What a amazing video!

Superb cars, great racing with the cars moving about under control like that, love it.

looks like some serious fun. those are all great cars. i,d like to hear Chris,s take on that race and that car

grip level seems so low. great driving by all of them.

Love the additional paint at the l.front.

Using every bit of that track and driving at the very limit of the car's capabilities! Nice.

Nice driving dude, nice motor as well.

2:32 It was hell of a brown moment there. Great driving Chris!

THE SOUND...... OMG... glorious.

Watching Chris fighting that huge steering wheel is so funny lol

I bet the contact patch is smaller than a single rear tyre on a 911 GT3 . Good catch at 2.33 Chris, your body language just says' bloody hell' ! Awesome drive.

Chris, you lucky bas*. That 356!! Very nice job man. Just bring us another full review.

Well done Chris, great driving.

Just to provide some numbers, the most potent 1953 Porsche 356 (and this one is from '53) had a 70PS engine (although, perhaps this one is tuned), whereas the *least powerful* Jaguar XK120 had 162PS. Since the one Chris Harris battled against looks like a race version, it probably has at least 213PS. That's an enormous difference in power, not to mention that the Jaguar with its conventional FR layout is probably far easier to drive, whereas our favorite motoring journalist had to keep a heavy rear end with a pendulum axle under control. I'm very impressed.

awesome race Chris, that Jag in front had you licked on the straights, but you did well to keep up initially in the corners.

i love old cars.. so much movement in the chassis, thats what i call fun driving

Would have loved to see a post race interview as part of this video!

Great job Chris, driving at the absolute limit of that car on those tires. Seriously applaud you Chris.

Looked like a crest over the apex. The Jag wagged its tail too. Those are the best parts of cockpit cams- the steering corrections that we get to see.

I love this car, this video and this man! No homo though

Chris Harris, auto journalist extraodinare and competent race driver! Huzzah!

Well done Chris!

beautiful

Squeaky bum time indeed @ 2.33!

Great skills, as always

Great friving, excellent foodage, thanks!

Chris Harris can really drive... Love that Porsche.

A great drive Chris, especially considering the power to weight advantage of a fully sorted XK - I wonder how the two cars would compare in standard road-going trim?

Nice to see how close you got to the wall. Check out those red and white scratchs...

Awesome video nice driving!

Great driving mate

Beautiful old cars, beautiful track, awesome driver. No grip skinny radials. Proper no frills racing the way I like it. Superb

Nice driving Chris!👍

You're an inspiration.

Good job Chris, it looks like a lot of fun

Stunning clip

2:33 Been there done that. In a Yellowbird. On Nordschleife. In a video game :( As it turns out, no matter if virtual or real, these old Porkers seem to be quite tricky beasts...

that Jag was blisteringly fast! Good job Chriss. We'll see you on Top gear.

wonderfull driving. nicely done

Beautifully driven. Love seeing you drive manly cars. (No offense to the badass beasts) But the skinny tire, old cars with zero assistance. THAT is where its at. Being able to take that beautiful 356 at her limit, lap after lap, right to the edge of the track is a skill most today dont grasp. Beautiful work...

Amazing! Good skills
