They are the blue zooper doopers of the Porsche world I would agree with you 99% of the time, but for me one of the best 991.2 GT3 RS' I have seen was Alvin Chua's car. As an Adelaide boy did you see that? It looked fantastic as a Weissach spec with gold wheels. A really good looking car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks fun to me .The closest I can ever come to compare is racing bikes . The modern race bike is full of electronics and Quickshifter it is as fun as hell I had the same concerns as whether the fun would be lost it never was . Keep in mind driver aids can be turned off if you need more excitement in your driving Fast is fun 🤩 DJM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typically the fastest cars at club track days are low 1:40s - this guy at 4 to 5 seconds faster with more weight, less power and showroom stock with road reg is testament to the amazing engineering in these cars. His YouTube comment says “new fastest lap by anyone in a standard road car of any description”, I’d believe it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much faster than other guys in similar cars. The maestro. wilson59 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgy Posted 24December, 2020 Author Report Share Posted 24December, 2020 That’s fair ask I would say, and most likely where a lot of them transact anyhow! I was offered a fellow club members Agate CS 991.1 for low 2’s at the end of 2018... I think he ended up listing at 220 back then and it moved immediately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a random chat with an old fella in his 70's at a cars and coffee meet on the weekend after us both eyeing off a super clean 993 turbo. ( refer below) The PI race track came up in the discussion along with gt3's. Not practical logistical wise, but I reckon he would have that RS covered on on the straight at PI in his road car. Note, I would not of picked in a million years when I asked him whats your main squeeze and did you bring it today. Yeah mines parked up there, the red one. ( left out probably the quickest and most expensive car at the meet) Wasn't expecting to take the pic below from the drivers seat. Also he told me the majority of k's to date in it have been track k's. He broke the code for me on the 812 superfast logo on the right of the pic as well. Happened to cost me over $100k per 100hp ( over 800k that icluded 160k in extras) for over 800hp with 12 cylinders and its indeed superfast down any race straight. micknine01 and JWM 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly what the old fella mentioned. Eg can give away 20 to 30km/hr on the straight if you don't get 11 and 12 right. DJM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
