I have an S and was not able to get it to do this when I was experimenting with it several months ago. I'll try it again today.

Here are a few donuts I did with my first 991S last year just before I had to replace the tires. Did not try since then, I know it works and it really does not serve any purpose

What a hooligan!

I stand corrected. I tried this again tonight and you are absolutely right it will go to neutral in any gear.

The clutch engagement is pretty soft when you select a gear again though. It will also not let you "drop the clutch" into 1st from a dead stop like you could in true manual. You have to use LC if you want to do that.

I'm guessing the GT3 will differ from ours in both of these ways, ie. the equivalent of sidestepping a clutch pedal in any situation / gear at anytime.
