Bmw m3 is so easy to flog on track while 6gt3 it can be a challenge but so rewarding!!! Mike

yes mike. It was like a spec Miata on steroids. No drama in high speed turns. We'll set up.

But it I like drama in the 6. 💪🏽

I've got an E36 M3 race car and I agree it's easier to drive near the limit than the 6GT3. Both are fun, but in different ways.

Great video! Awesome driving and sound (my co-workers are used to my Porsche **** videos watched at full volume during the lunch hour).
This just underscores the fact that I really NEED to do a track day at Sebring.

Can we put this up on our website? Love how the 991 GT3 doesn't pull on you...

Through the twisty technical bits, of course the 991 GT3 is gonna pull on the straight... Didn't clarify...

i dont know about skill but fun it is..

btw if I get it just right i can have a lil more exit speed than the 991 gt3 and so i can keep up on the straights....amazing what a lil more exit speed can do for end of straight top speed

5:40 into video you can see a lil better exit into back straight almost keeping up ....you can also see when i shift vs PDK how it def makes a difference and i lose a millisec or 2......

A shorter r/p would help. Stock 3rd gear too long ie trqless. Mike

very nice. I was surprised and happy that in the bends the 991 wasnt any faster. In the straights though its hella fast. I thought our cars were as fast as light. I cant imagine what it must feel like to drive a 991 gt3.

Great video Mike! I think you have more hours on that exhaust than every other exhaust I have built!

building 4-5 more right now as we speak actually. In case anyone is interested.
