A car is like a hammer (especially the rear engine Porsche )... if you swing it enough times, you'll eventually hit your thumb with it. So regardless of which car you buy, they both have associated limits and you will at some point get a chance to explore them, the result of the exploration is up to you.

My dad has had Porsche's since 1974 and has never had an incident in one. On the other hand, I've had 2 incidents in the last 10 years. I tend to swing the hammer considerably more often than my dad, so I've hit my thumb a couple times.

 

that *** can be like a pendulum

exploring the limits is the fun part, just have some common sense while doing so

 

Just drive it, man..just drive it...it will play with you the way you want it to

 

I've recently got my RS. I sold a X50 pack 996 Turbo for this.

I also do track days in very light (Megabus - UK thing!! - 500kg - sorry guys half a ton!) car with a bike engine in it (175bhp). I reckon the 996 stood no chance!!

The RS is totally something else, tracking adverse cambers and the like - truly something else.

But obviously you need to keep a safe brain engaged else for sure a visit to the Forest is promised!!

I've had a Mark 1 GT3 as a road and track car and recently got into a Turbo for road and track. My opinion is horses for courses - Track a GT3 - Road a Turbo

 

So you can get a Turbo and change the suspension out and make it a good not bad *** track car?

 

see my formula...


a set of JRZ shocks/custom springs (by whoever) and the turbo will outhandle a LOAD of cars with the right driving...

 

The GT3 is more fun than the Turbo. If you spin it, so what, if you spin enough times, you'll eventually hit the apex.
