THe GT3 Rewards the guy who puts in the effort to learn to drive. If you
take it to the track it takes a physical effort I can no longer do until
I get my back fixed. THe AMG allows me to get in and out with ease
and twist the tires with that torque. A GT3 Guy will tell you that cheating
but I cant do it any other way right now.
I will Live through you guys here and on RL
Congrats OG!! I love tire smoke and big torque! You will have a blast with that car.

I am sorry to hear that. It is unfortunate that a musculoskeletal disorder prevents you from enjoying your GT3. You may have been forced to abandon Porsche cars for a legitimate reason but I am confident that you have not lost your enthusiasm.
Thanks for your insightful posts as I have enjoyed them on this and other websites. Good luck with your new acquisition and I do hope that you would find time to contribute here.
