How does it look when there is a coolant spill?

At 6:51 there is coolant in Pflanzgarten. There is a BMW parked behind the barrier to the left. A friend almost lost his car there when he came later and the trace of coolant wasn't so clear.

Wet at Rudskogen (Norway). First time on the tack. Really nice track.
A lot of elevation changes and hidden corners with space to exit the track when doing stupid stuff.

It felt weird having a Porsche GT3RS just behind the head when driving the Audi Transporter.

Norway was wet so it was practical to dry stuff in the Audi.

Met up with some friends from PCS for two days of driving in the North.

Trivia: The yellow GT3 has been owned by the Swedish King.

And some rumors from Nürburg:

The 911R has KW suspension and there is developing work being done for the RS as well (somehow this feels weird since 911R is not track focused but time will tell).

There is work going on with the front liners of the RS. Mantheys test RS (UV) is using a modified liner.


Not rumor:
You can put GT4 hubs on the 991 GT3 (and I assume on the 991 GT3RS as well) if you wan't to go 5-lug.

I can barely see it. Coolant scares me in general but at the Ring you have no chance if you get there fefore the debris flag..

I still don't know if I got new liners that were remolded or not. I can't tell they are molded. Still haven't applied the 13 page track setup..

What is your setup now?

KW for R makes no sense.. It's already softer to make a better road car.

5 lug hubs was done on the 997's. I don't even have a set of wheels but I still do t see the advantage of CL.

Keep your ears open! Your closest to the source

I see gummy bears are the universal international choice of trucking food :-)
Nice to see you use the RS a lot!! Man, 0.01second is awesome!

It's been to Porsche now and they've rolled tha rear fenders. I have not found out exactly how much: I compared to my friends late built car but they seemed to be the same: I guess his was fixed at the factory.

They didn't do anything about the front liners: Still a hole in the front right fender.
I just noticed that the left wheel has touched the left liner in the rear of the liner. No hole.

It seems as Porsche changed their factory setup:
They got an advice from Porsche for a specific setup for every 991 GT3RS to avoid to much scratching of the fenders.
It is 2mm higher in the front and 5mm higher in the rear than your current setup.

My right rear tire was corded because of the fender touching so I had to get a new set of rears :-(

Improved the lap time from 1.11.99 (997.1 GT3) to 1.09.05 (991 RS). Almost 3s on a short lap,even though I lifted because of the checkered flagg.
Not a good lap. A lot to do...
Still crazy how much faster the RS is for me on this track.
