What is better practise when parking a 911, leaving the car in gear without the handbrake pulled, or leaving the car in neutral with the handbrake pulled?

 

unless i m in my garage, i put it in gear and use the brake...

 

Put the car in gear and use the handbrake every time.

IMO this goes for both automatic and standard. I don't know why, but it makes me crazy to see automatic cars resting on only the parking gear. I know it is different if you live in very cold climates. My mini rant is over :-)

 

Both, always.

 

Yeah, both.

 

Both but not too tight on the brake after a spirited drive incase of warping - probably not a real risk but you asked :-)

 

Only in gear, no parking brake. My garage is pretty flat, even when I am in neutral, it doesn't roll anywhere.

 

I set the handbrake then into first. Always.

 

Both always... The only time I don't put the parking brake on is after I've washed the car and put it in the garage (w/ wet rotors).

I gather that when they're hot after a session at the track that one should not put the parking brake on...

I have a wheel "chock" that I slide behind my front left wheel when it is in the garage (floor is flat, but you never know)

 

Handbrake always. First/reverse when it's not flat.

some young kid told me the handbrake shouldn't be used because it "looks" stupid and I think he was insane.

 

I always just use the handbrake on any of the manuals I've owned over the years unless I'm parked on a slope, then I also put it in gear (not particular about which one really). I always put it in gear if there's even a slight slope, but most of the time I find myself parked on flat ground and just use the hand brake.

 

Both always... my ebrake is weak and probably needs a refresh.
