There's a reason it's standard on a GT3 RS and was on the 918 spyder.

And here's even more about REAR AXLE STEER on Formula One cars..Non other than the great Schumacher himself said:
'It feels very good, but actually it doesn’t change things a lot. I am using the same lines and there isn’t a lot of movement at the rear. It makes it a little easier, but right now the system doesn’t work very well in the slow corners, so we might not use it in Adelaide.
They didn’t use it in Adelaide or Suzuka. Schumacher ran it in testing on Friday morning at Suzuka, and then turned the system off.
But Benetton’s failure to find any advantage with the system didn’t change the FIA’s decision to ban it.
Perhaps, though, this is one instance where the intervention of the rule book didn’t play the ultimate role in stopping a piece of technology being used. Maybe it just wasn’t a big enough step forward?

[QUOTE=ipse dixit;18639078]Not a lot of F1 fans in here. There are tons of regulations that were there to make the cars slower. Google is your friend here. One of the biggest changes in F1 was getting away from slicks back in the day, which they 'un-banned' years later. Again, that RAS article is anecdotal at best and it's based on 30 year old tech.

Maybe not a lot of F1 fans on here but the popularity of the sport in the USA is hugely on the increase!
2023 will see 3 Grand Prix in the US!
In 2021 there was only one.
If I recall last year’s US race was a huge sellout as well.
All thanks to Netflix

If I am dating myself correctly...your 1996 alpine didn't have a **** for volume...those were dark days for Alpine and therefore not comparable to your Burmester!

FIRST RENNLIST POSTER REVIEW!!
I look forward (enviously) to seeing the first review of their new car by a Rennlist poster.
Needs to start with the unveiling at the dealer, followed by the drive home first impressions.
If I can’t be first (I can’t - March 17th) then at least I can partly offset it by seeing someone else’s joy and happiness.
Oh and don’t forget some pics of all the gorgeous local ladies suddenly checking you out when previously they’d totally ignored you😄👍

Here's the final build I'm going with I think: https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PP5ARDW0
Freeze date is in 3 days!!
Does anyone have real world pics/vids of the Standard $0 Seats (w/ Checkered Sport-Tex Seat Centers)?
Hard to find anything other than standard marketing material
Cheers.

I have a hardback marketing book for the 991.2 T that I think captures the ethos pretty well. I believe this still applies to the 992 T. I like how they call out specifically this is not for the collector, but for the driver. I was impressed that the early 991.2 T press drives were done in the mountains with cars on winter tires.

Neat@6sigma please share your Porsche Code
Here is where I am right now, but also strongly considering white with the green T interior package with basically the same options.

Of course. What I was referring to is the comment on F1 aids meant to make them faster. That's not true at all. Therefore not being a fan, not knowing this. Not meant as an insult by any means. F1 has been slowing cars down all the time. The most recent, slowing down the pit stops tire changes.

I wasn't comparing it to Burmester at all.
