Chaos

Can you convince them to offer us a thicker steering wheel - like they used to in 2010 /2011? These new wheels feel a little needle like.

Chaos can not share anything that's not already public. Trade secret course in corporation's. He can help clear things up and I think thats the idea here and greatly appreciated.

Haha, I'll voice my concern but I doubt they'll listen.


To be honest there are much more positive feedback I've been hearing than negative ones to the 360mm GT steering wheel. A lot of people like it better, I certainly do like it better than the one on 997.2


I know people coming from Ferrari are not used to it. Ferrari have like one of the biggest and thickest wheels haha.

Im asking will there be a separate Gt3Rs and GT2RS or will they merge into one car? If not, will there be KERS or a larger than 4.0 in the RS.2?

I much prefer the 360mm GT Wheel to the sport wheel that's on my C2S. When I think about upgrading my car, that's one of the things I consider a big plus to the new cars. That wheels feels way better than the old SD wheel.

Any thoughts on this car, out in the public eye with no camo?

Ok Chao, mission accomplished, "we" threw them off the scent just like you wanted.. pay up sucka!!.. I have a track day with instructor tomorrow at AMP to pay for. Also... yesterday, Yana at #PECATL pretended not to know who Chaosoul was, and I was like "but you know me", and she looked confused.. then I was confused. I gave her the secret handshake and she smiled, so at least that went well.

"Hey Hanz, let's f%!k the Interwebs. Fabricate a wingless rear decklid and pack it up for our trip to the States. We'll throw it on a car when we get there, park it in public and watch the forum jockeys' heads explode."

For this generation 911? No. For next gen? I don't have information for that. They are testing e-hybrid on 911s, but not sure if they will make it on to GT cars.


As mentioned before, Porsche doesn't release information even internally until about a year out. I won't have any accurate information for anything more than 2 years out, and frankly no one will. Next gen RS we're looking at 2022+, so 5 years out, even the engineers and execs will have no idea yet.
