997 gt3 or tt
Unable to decide between the 997 gt3 or tt.
Not sure which I would be happier with on the track.
I mostly go out to Willow Springs Raceway. I have tracked the 996tt & C4s and both of them handled like a boat.

Has anyone tracked their 997 gt3 or tt that can shed some light on the subject.
Any track times at Willow Springs raceway and feedback to how the car feels/handel.

What are some of the benefits compared to the 996 tt or 996 gt2

As i mentioned, the GT3 RS is the widebody version (utilzes the 997TT/C4S body)
