A Tip for the Manual guys with the Emergency brake (Auto Release) !!
I don't know if many of you have realized this but when you have your seatbelt on and the emergency brake on, if you start to release the clutch the Emergency brake releases automatically eliminating the need to do it yourself.

I usually do it a little gently off the clutch at first giving the brake a second to release ...

It will not release if your seatbelt isn't on.

This mechanism is the same as the Panamera with PDK.

Does this work with the 991 and the PDK? I need to try this sometime.
