LOL, we might be just a weeeeeee bit sensitive there and letting a forum control your emotions bud.

Threads go off track all the time, it's called communication and conversation. It happens

Grow up or spend less time on the internet.

Quite the witty comeback my good sir. Well played.

Shouldn’t you be yelling at some kids to get off your lawn?

I was thinking more of beating the wife and kicking the dog in an emotional internet rage.

Theres no need to be sad about flight simulators & EVs, many of us are curious of these things also. To me ev seems the ultimate pdk. & you never know in a decade time perhaps the only place to discuss mt vs pdk will be in "Classic Porsche Car" simulator video game forums.

To each their own, I'd rather talk about some interesting things like EVs and how they will handle shifting in the future vs people asking about the best ways to pull a paddle to shift a gearbox that does an inherently great job at doing it's own thing in Sport or Sport plus. I was merely drawing a likeness that I thought the previous poster could relate to. But yes sanderabernathy I will get off your lawn

Like Mom used to say to my sister and I, "Fight nice, kids!"

Now back on track: I sold a GT3 RS (twice) because the PDK bored me. The car was fantastic, but I was always wondering how fun it could be with a third pedal. I bought the GT4 because I wanted a fun, manual car. I didn't need ultimate lap or 0-60 times. I wanted a quick car that was fun in the hills and turns. It ticks all the boxes.
