GrantG,
The GT3 engine is fully water-cooled -- not just the heads.

Except that in a recent Autocar 'head to head' the New GT3 could not get away from the 993RS around the Nurburgring!

Who were the drivers though??

I expect that as much as 993 drivers wish it wasn't so, the GT3 is probably a bit quicker round the 'ring. I doubt that Porsche are unable to improve car performance in 8 or so years.

cant define though. Thats the truckers stops at truck stops in Nevada.
I calculated 1800 seconds for fueling, smoking and peeing at a traditional
truck stop but in Nevada they have slot machines and free massages for
truckers along hwy 50. And without the percentage of payouts of the slot
machines in use and wether or not the massuese is a smoker or not I just
cant nail it down!

You forgot the 7200 seconds the truck driver will need for the 'joy ride' in your car...

Just kidding.

Congrats on your car!

I want a GT3 for the same reason I want Kate Beckinsale. Lust, pure lust, and the envy of every other sentient being on the planet.
