Enrique... Now THAT is some nice driving my friend; nice to see the Porsche drivers who actually know how to drive their cars.Originally Posted by f1crazydriver
He goes by the "thepunisher" ... on this forum. Great guy from Italy. knows how to drive for sure. Him and I have were praising for years saying springs alone are great- with an alignment. I believe back in that video he was just on lowering springs and since then he has moved to coilovers. Kw i believe ?p.s. GT3 RS are easy to pass

Thunderhill is such a fun track; I just did a track day on my BMW S1000RR, but we use the Cyclone, I noticed you were using the bypass.
I figured that was punisher.from watching the video. Great driving my friend, love to see the 996tt driven properly. One of the most underrated cars at the track.. And yes, does not take much to run circles around the gt3's.

The driver of the GT3 told to me that, when i'm behind him, i drive as he does when he's cooling down after some fast laps ... really when you get an extra power it's amazing how you can change gears at 4000 rpm on the straight to avoid jumping in the GT3 rear bumper !

Completely agree. Last time I was at the track, I parked next to 2 GT3's / RS and 1 Cup car. They GT3 guys (from rennlist) gave me the look of what em I doing here ( not the cup car, as he knows me
)- you know that superior look most GT3 drivers have. Then I went out on my out lap for a shake down run
they couldn't keep up. Then they kept inspecting my car. I asked for a ride in one of the GT3's (thus far I have had 16 ride along with GT3 drivers. 16 different drivers.) and man was it horrid. Missing apex's, missing braking points, not heal toeing properly- terrible. But out of the 16 GT3 drivers I have gone out with, sadly only two know how to drive. TWO. I think this is a very common , most GT3 owners thing they bought the rights of a good driver just by owning the car. Funny thing is, out of those 16, they are all on rennlist, the two that knew how to drive, are the least active members.
Right on Enrique. What's worse is a lot of guys with Turbo's blaming the car as to why they aren't going fast, as if the car doesn't have the potential. Al Norton runs with the new GT3's/RS's in a stock weight, K16 car with tune (which with the weight makes the acceleration even), sway bars, and KW V3's. And as shown here, it can be done with less.
Learn how to drive it properly, and it will reward you will LOTS and LOTS of other drivers hands out the window watching you go by.
