GT3 trackday baiting ?

farook said:
I know the guy on the lotus forum - he is a nice mature guy but has a massive chip on his shoulder about Porsches...

20yrs ago people took their car brand to heart as a statement or something but the world has moved on and we all appreciate the qualities of different cars and definitely acknowledge driver skill as a big factor.

But sadly, our Jonny is somewhat challenged in this regard with reference to P cars...

He seems to know his way round a track well enough, You'll have to lend Jonny one of the GT3's from your stable Farook, :worship:

You might even persuade him into buying one :grin:
 
I had a bit of fun with a new one on the private road. It couldn't touch the GT3 in a straight line and after a roundabout the gap was even larger.

Track day pace is generally about the driver.
 
This is the problem with Open Pit Lane and non-Club Trackdays - there's always some wannabe hero with a point to prove. Perhaps it's a bit restrictive but there's a case for not allowing timing gear and cameras in/on the car on a normal trackday.

I don't know about you, but I'm more inclined to take more risks with my other car (which is at least partially prepared for the track) than in my road-going Porsche, as I'm acutely aware that when I go off, the Porsche is going to cost a lot more to get fixed (not to mention the cost of tyres and brakes).
