Sure would be interesting to know the shock and spring changes and why and what Porsche did between .1 and .2 GT3. I love the way my GT3 rides and handles....need a lot more track time with it but on the street it is definitely stiff but not too jarring at all.

This could be differences in Tire Side wall stiffness between the MPSC2 N0 vs the MPSC2 N1's or differences in Shock Absorbers.

Does anyone know if the same Shock Absorbers are used on the .1 vs the .2?

BTW, A "modified" GT3RS with unstated HP (very unusual) driven by Christian Gebhardt has recently set a new Hockenheim Short Track Lap Record @ 1:05.8,
faster than the Porsche 918 Spyder time of 1:06.30 with 887 HP. Same Driver drove the MB AMG GT-R with 585 HP in 1:06.4 and ZO6 C7 Corvette, 659 HP in 1:06.9,
Ferrari 488 GTB in 1:07.0, Lamborghini Hurracan 610-4, 609 HP in 1:07.50, Porsche 911 GT3-2, 500 HP in 1:07.9, Porsche GTS, 450 HP and presumably on "Street tires" in 1:08.00.

Porsche TTS-2 Time is 1:07.5, TTS-1 is 1:08.2, 991-1 GT3RS-1 is 1:08.5 with GT3-1 Time of 1:09.2

I suspect the "Modified GT3RS", the new Lap Record Holder of Hockenheim, is actually the new GT3RS-2. WOW!!!!! And the new GTS with "only" 450 HP is likely as fast as the GT3 WOW-WOW
Somewhere after Oct 2015 the springs changed on the .1RS
Some have helper springs after that, mine doesn’t. You can find it on PET I was told.
