Default Kills frogs fast

The 992 also suffers from extreme leaf ingestion and they are much harder to remove vs the 991. On the track it will eat rubber bits and the right projectile will penetrate the radiator. I don’t understand why Porsche continues to leave these wide open to the elements.

I was doing the leaf blower clean out and much to my surprise, my car had ingested a FROG at some point. It came “hopping” out of the intakes. Poor guy didn’t stand a chance.

Try driving in "Northern Mexico" near the Big Bend area of West Texas and encountering a suicidal roadrunner at 105 MPH. My 991.2 GT3 was fine after getting the center section grill mesh replaced.

All that the poor frog was trying to do is hump the giant green frog it saw... your car!
