Question 991.2 GT3 MT clutch pedal weight?
My 997.1 GT3 with RS clutch and flywheel specs coupled to a 996 Cup transmission had a pretty stiff throw weight compared to a 997 C2S.

Any feedback: How the clutch pedal weight on the 991.2 GT3 or 991R compares to the 997 era GT cars?

This, it's actually quite light but amazingly communicative. my 997 RS was a good pound/2 or more stiffer.

Exactly. 911R with SMF almost strangely light. Gt4 heavier but modern comfortable. 997 like an old school car heavy.

Did no one else see this??

Did you really convert a 991.1 GT3 to manual with a cup transmission??

Cool!

Ha.... I wish!

After 3 surgeries and likely a candidate for replacement, my left knee needs all the help it can get!

To true.... but not an option on the Touring.

After 2 PDK cars, I'm psyching myself up for a return to "old school".

I wasn’t able to drive my Manual .2 GT3 in Leipzig, but I did press the clutch pedal. Was lighter than I expected - a bit lighter than my GT4...

I'll wear my big boy pants!

Reports of light clutch throw weight is welcome news, thankfully I don't live in or near a large city where traffic would 100% rule out MT
