Will it scrape
Have a math question and need help. Entrance to my driveway is 73 inches long and has an elevation of 7 inches. I believe that is a 10% grade (?). Will a 991.2 4s with Front Axle Lift clear the driveway?

Rise over run. I am not sure I understand your numbers - are you saying that over a 73" run, your driveway has a change in elevation of 7"? If so, then this should be a 9.6% grade. I can't answer the scrape question but at least we can confirm the numbers for someone else to give feedback on.

My GT4 didn't come with FAL (wasn't an option). I was worried but I never needed it. Then, to play it safe, I specced my GT3 with FAL, as I thought it may be lower with a longer nose than the GT4. Again, I never needed it. Can't imagine I'll ever spec FAL again. It's big deal among the GT3 guys for resale but I doubt half of them who have it ever use it but once in a while. With a little patience and good judgment, you can take most inclines at an angle with no problem at all.

Tks for all the responses. I’m actually buying a 992s with FAL and have to decide if I can order the Sport Design Front. I used a 991.2 as an example since obviously no one has a 992 yet. I believe the ground height is similar but I will check that out. I recalculated the driveway angle and it is 11.5 degrees. I can enter at an angle going in from the Street so I think based on other people’s responses that I’m ok.
