GT3RS will take a year of track abuse and need to visit the dealer once.............for a change of oil.
I feel it would be a different story for the 360 cs........................
Whenever I see a Ferrari at a track day it is being driven "gay", although the guy driving may well have the nicest macthing gloves and boots in the pits!
Only once have I seen a Ferrari being driven hard on track.

a) He is a better driver than most of us, and certainly better than he likes us to believe.
b) Luca did seem to be going sideways a lot
c) Made good TV

The one thing that struck me was this:
Clarkson said that Ferrari had shaved 120 kilos off a normal 360 to make the CS. The 360 is a road going supercar. He then added that Porsche had 'Only' manged to shave 50 kilos off the GT3 to make the GT3 RS. Thing is the GT3 is allready a track car so how much lighter is a GT3 RS from a normal 911.
