Couldn't resist giving it a try - just took it for a short drive to warm it up fully and found a nice quiet back road with decent looking surface. Put it in PDK Sport, stepped on the brake and floored it then let off the brake.
All hell does break loose - the LC indicator comes on, the tire instantly hook up and I'm down the road like stink on ****!
Disneyland doesn't have anything to compare with that ride!

The car is most definitely as fast as the magazines say. I ran my car today for the heck of it and ran an 11.30 @ 123.9 with a 1.78 60 ft. Insane 60 foot time for a rwd car on street tires. Launch control does result in substantially faster times than just flooring it from a stop.

Here's my 11.267 run .....1.68sec 60 foot using launch control
Shame the camera wasn't rotated to the right a little...We were neck and neck the whole way.
I've since had a more aggressive wheel alignment to suit the circuit and the launch control doesn't work anywhere near as well (less tire on road I assume).

Perfect timing on the launch. GTR's Seem to be set up more for a qtr mile than a GT3. Never ceases to amaze me how versatile the 991 GT3 is. Not a drag car but fills that slot pretty darn nicely. The Turbo S is faster in a qtr mile, and 0-60, but not by much. Sweet

Nothing but awesomeness from the 991 GT3. It really does have everything.
