I can’t work out what else one would do with a car other than drive it - it’s basically all cars do or are for! I totally agree. Drive when it’s rewarding., save it from the peak hour! Just brought my , new to me , gt3 996 .01 , home to sydney from Adelaide via grampians, melbourne, yea , Mansfield , Beechworth, corryong, adaminaby , cooma, tarago ,Vincentia and kangaroo valley. Managed 2350 km driving over 3 days with only 100 km on the Hume. Epic trip with a good mate Co driving.

Peter John Posted 5January, 2022 Report Share Posted 5January, 2022 Clutch pedal or clutch feel? Pedal will feel the same but you’ll spin up quicker, it’ll drop quicker, so you’ll be dancing like Friday night. It’s fine in traffic other than giving you the feeling that you have ants in your pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter John Posted 5January, 2022 Report Share Posted 5January, 2022 Not at all just slight adjustment but you’d get it straight away- very easy imo from hill starts or tight slow speed stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its more Clutch feel (heavy vs light). what I gather from your explation is , essentially same clutch feel, but very fast response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter John Posted 5January, 2022 Report Share Posted 5January, 2022 Yeah that’s it. Clutch pedal would still feel the same and some would describe as heavy- I like it- prefer to a light one. More the engine response - feels like you’ve thrown your back back off after climbing a hill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
