WGA Posted 30April Report Share Posted 30April Attended the Master GT3 RS training event at QR Raceway yesterday. Fabulous day. Perfect weather. Phenomenal car. It was the first event Porsche has run in these cars so had no previous benchmarks to pre-judge how fast the students might be. Reference lap was 56.1 (although they had done faster 55s but chose the 56.1 as a tidier ref lap for us to measure ourselves against). As a comparison, ref lap around QR for the Cup car is in the 52s, ref lap for the 4RS is 57.8. Normally at these events, the lap times of the students varies a lot depending on previous experience, size of cojones, etc. BUT, this time, every Student was into the 57s pretty damn quickly only 1-1.5 secs off the ref lap. My best lap was 57.2 which I was very pleased with. Luke Youlden said he had never seen lap times like this before not sure how much was the car vs maybe a higher than normal level of student…but did potentially put a lot of it down to the car allowing students to get up to speed very quickly. I think I might need to get one now. JWM, micknine01, cafe_racer and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a result, lap times on the Sprint are much faster than the Clubman. GT3MEZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to Master GT3Rs session later this year. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
