That's a great online name! But as was said, we all did our share of T-Boning!

Sorry I was proud of myself lol.

Overall the event was fun. Track did get backed up and it was a little sketchy because there was no run-off. Porsche did a great job in showing their appreciation for the GT3 owners. (make sure we keep buying cars from them). Make sure when doing the low friction exercise to ask to take off traction control. I did good on kick plate and skid plate and they let me link drift the entire low friction area. That was my favorite part.
Since we are bragging, I managed to pull the steering wheel off from its base twice. The second time it happened, I was prepared and managed to reattach it without even crashing. Still won the race by 15 seconds. Strong, fast, calm under pressure - BAM LOL

The low friction area was my favorite part too.

I just booked a 2 hour thing next week to see if I fit in a Cayman and check out the place. Look forward to see it all in person.
RS drovers just need to wait in line and pay.

You'll enjoy the experience. Great group of people there in Atlanta. It is probably setting the new standard for test driving a car.

CAUTION!!!!!!!

does everybody remember those cool little pieces of leather at the exclusive room? The embossing machine was great giving us a nice piece of dyed leather with the Porsche logo.

Well, long story short, make sure it's not in one of your pockets going into the washing machine. We know have a full load of laundry dyed red!......doh!

Nick, thanks for the heads up. I am using it under my trackpad and it works well.

Mine is in the trash. The wash completely removed the embossed logo and destroyed the leather, along with my clothes.

I found it very entertaining. As long as you know it is not a "track" experience, it is fun....at least I thought so. All the beautiful cars inside, getting to drive the different cars outside...it was fun to me. Then again I like carnivals. It's definitely NOT a track day, but it is an experience. The LA site is supposed to be larger and focused on Motorsport support.

Just going to see the facility and cars like doubleurx says. Want to test sit a Cayman with LWB and just take a look around, with brother and friends. Ha to be in ATL anyway.

I imagine it being a fun showroom

If you have that attitude, it won't be a disappointment at all. You'll be able to try out the Cayman in a way that you'd never be able to do at a regular dealer. There's other cool stuff to see there as well; I think you'll find it enjoyable.
