Proper drivers of GT3's know how to beat most things
You sound like Hammond when he got hypnotised by Paul McKenna!

A Cayman would make mincemeat of a 911 if Porsche bothered.

Who was it, I will pass it on to him ? He must be on one of the forums, why do people buy cars they can't drive

Smaller lighter car with less overhangs and better weight distribution.

Porsche>Isaac Newton obviously!

However, it's those thing afore mentioned that make Mikey's S competitive against a GT3

More than that though, i'm sure Mikey wafted home in relative comfort compared to the GT3 driver...unless he was towing it

Come on you need to bite or I can't argue with you

never been in a GT3, pretty sure it's gonna be a bumpy ride though on normal roads as mine is bumpy enough in a Carrera. Cayman may be quicker if they ever put a decent engine in it but that is not going to happen.

I did and really enjoyed the roof down blast home across North Wales
Passed poor GT3 man on the way out recovering his front splitter from under his car after traversing the speed bumps

I'm going to spend a bit more time on sorting the replacement seats and a few other tweaks over the winter
