Is there a 991 GT3 owners forum elsewhere?
One similar to the 996 GT and 997 GT forums? a forum with descriptions, discussions about car setup, comparisons, setup info (ride heights, alignment specs), brake pads, tire choices, upgrades, lap times, driving experiences, for actual 991 GT car owners?
This forum has reached an excessive amount of discussions about insecure individuals looking for support groups to enable them to aspire or purchase a 991 GT of some sort. The majority of quality discussions are lost after multiple pages of the same "ADM, Trade-In value, resale value, etc." or "Please, appraise me a car".
I have been looking around the interweb, and have found nothing of the quality of the 996 and 997 GT forums.
Thanks,

This forum suffers from neglect. All that needs to happen is create a sub-forum to discuss pricing, and a sticky to let people know that pricing threads will be moved or deleted from the main forum. It might take 5 minutes.

Do follow threads by Rennlisters "TRAKCAR" and "orthojoe".
Don't follow threads by Rennlister "usctrojanGT3".

^This is correct. Not only is it the best overall Porsche forum by a mile it has single handily taught me 80% of what I know about these cars in the last 5 years. IMO this is exactly where a new Porsche buyer should come to ask these questions and exactly what a forum is for. There are so many great cars guys on this forum who have helped me out it's a shame some have become so jaded.

Shots fired!
On a more serious note, do you think all 991 GT3 variants now appeal to a broader audience because of the car's increased sophistication/accessibility and correspondingly become less of an ideal track weapon for those who seriously track?

While the admins are at it, why don't they add a sub forum for those who won't to cry about the content of the value threads. I get tired of all the value threads as much as anyone, but the constant crying about them is about as old as the value threads themselves.

A Value Sub-Forum (maybe not even 991 GT3 specific, but applicable to other Porsche models where their forums might be suffering a similar information dilution, maybe not at the grade we have here), and moderators doing the moves per popular demand.
We can police ourselves and report threads discussing values if they find their way into this forum. It takes 5 seconds to move a thread to another sub-forum given the correct admin privileges.
I'm of the opinion that this is not an IB (Internet Brands) problem, it is simply an administration problem, and as forum members we can collectively find a nice solution.
There are countless of very valuable threads that are almost lost. I use the search function to just look into this specific forum, and I get an abundance of non-related threads (most of them discussing car prices), because my search contains words like: camber, height, exhaust, wheels, battery, hre, forgeline, bbs,wing....and anyone with any of these words in their signatures that ever made a comment in another value thread gets returned in my search.
In the meantime, the technical setup data in this forum for the 991.2 GT3 RS and 991.2 GT2 RS is very slim.
Awesome solution!!

Let's separate the forum between the posers/collectors and the drivers/track guys?
