Default 2 991 GT3's on the track (Two videos inside)

Went out to INDE Motorsports Ranch today in AZ and ran two new 991 GT3's. I am driving the camera car and one of my good friends is driving the 991 GT3 behind me. Spent a good amount of time driving it today and it's awesome. Video below. We ran the full course and also a shorter configuration. It was sliding around a bit, combination of too much air and super hot tires.

Play it in HD and turn up the sound


Added a second video split screen:

Is it just the video angle or was the car following pushing a lot?

Both cars had 44-46psi in the tires. We didn't have a tire gauge until after this run. Oops

Don't the cars come with TPS and a gauge in the frunk like 997's?

Break ins are done for sure The best way is hard fast! I drove the car in auto mode and manual and although auto is good there were several parts of the track in auto where it always needed to down shift but wouldn't. Manual is way more fun, more involving and I don't believe auto mode is always going to be faster if you know when to shift

We knew the air pressure was high but we were just excited to run them so we didn't wait for the gauge. Neither of us opened the frunks all day so no idea what's in there haha. We lowered the pressures after this run and it was better for sure.

ToyGuy, thanks for posting. The car sounds phenomenal!

Btw, was the silver a GT Silver or Rhodium? Your impressions of the color?

Rhodium. I love it.

Here is a second video of the same session but split screen so you can see the view from the white car:

The main sound from the exhaust is from the silver car in front.

That actually looks like a bit more roll than I was expecting. It looks like more than my PDCC-equipped C2S.
