Default incredible GT2 RS stunt on public road

This is one of the most incredible exhibitions of driving skill that I've ever seen: I've been on two wheels on the race track, usually accidentally and briefly, after the outside of my wheels catch during a zig-zag, but nothing like this, and definitely not on a public road (but obviously driving amongst and between friends): (video is already 9 months old, so perhaps many of you have already seen this)

It's an impressive amount of video editing, that's all.

So they superimposed the traffic, and airbrushed out the ramps on the closed course. . . makes sense, and yeah, great editing! It should be in a movie!

Possibly, but it looks like he's driving the wrong way. . . I took a screenshot as he was passing, and I saw this guy:

You mean that you haven't done this yet? Everyone's doing it! On the way home from work today, I did it twice just to get past the annoyingly slow drivers who were driving the same speed in both lanes!

Yep. There is absolutely no way you can get a GT2RS on 2 wheels without hitting something; tires just don’t have enough grip to do this.

Very frustrating, I wanted that button but Porsche Exclusive told me it was only available for the 2RS and not the 3RS.

For those that aren't aware this is caused by the Porsche track driving direction stability control button (PTDDSC) - you hit it depending whether you're on a clockwise or anticlockwise course - unfortunately its not meant to be deployed on public roads as it can have unforseen consequences if used incorrectly (very significant change in torque split left to right and PASM bias left to right).

Andreas Preuninger came up with the idea when he was in Monaco - he was watching a shark blue catamaran reaching on one hull. As legend goes, he came up with the colour for the 992 GT3 and the PTDDSC for the 2RS after this epiphany.

What’s most impressive is that I can’t tell if OP is serious or a troll

…and I thought that only Andreas, Chris, and I knew about that episode! Were you the guy in the hat and glasses that ate the last of the caviar while we were discussing the PTDDSC?

I'll probably catch some flak from Andreas for sharing this with the hoi polloi, but now that the cat's out of the bag, thanks to "caviar man", I may as well:


PTDDSC
