Default Some Interesting 997 Mk2 Launch Materials

Hi Everyone,

Chris (aka likemystoppie) sent me some interesting PCNA presentations that were used for the launch of the 997 Mk2.

I think the most interesting file in terms of learning is the PDK description. There is mention that a PDK in Sports Plus mode reaches 124 mph 3.7 secs faster than a Tiptronic. I had not seen that number before,....wow. While transmissions remain a bit of a black box for me, this file helped me out a little bit in understanding what PDK is.

Big thanks to Chris !!!!
Hope you enjoy the reading.

Took a ride in a S model with PDK yesterday, and also found that with Sport Plus selected, the transmission will not shift into 7th. When you deselect Sport Plus, 7th is available again.

That transmission is incredible, and for a person not liking Auto trans in general, I could get very used to the PDK.
