Default My MY98 SW vs Porsche GT3

I was invited to a track day arranged by a sportscar dealer in Norway, and had an enjoyable day on track with exotic sport cars.





The most enjoyable moment was when I tried to hang on to a Porsche GT3 - with some success. Still limited to ~ 250 bhp, so the GT3 gains distance at the straights - but I think my old wagon hangs on well in the turns

Later that day I realized I could run more of the turns in 5th rather than 4th - but during the first try I misjudged the entry speed as I lost engine braking in 5th. The second spin to the left was "planned", as I didn't want to run off sideways into the gravel trap:

I thought I had 2 hours of video, but unfortunately the vibrations in the car killed the DV-camera after 45 mins

cracking footage.

You also kept up due to simply being a better driver. Some of the GT3's lines were awful, whereas your's were much better.

Well Done that man!!

Excellent video's as above just shows you don't need all that power....I think with a bot more power he'd have a tough time losing you and wind up with egg on his GT3!! oh sorry face

Handling or grip? Stick the Stig in both cars and the GT3 would be pulling away. In fact, stick me in the GT3 and I'd be pulling away.

Well driven hmhaga and good call on forcing the spin.
