Sunday Drive with Porsche Club of Columbia
I had a Blast ! We had 9 turn out and we drove some fast twisty back roads and a short blast on the Highway !
This was the first time out with the 997 C4S, and it got put through the paces for sure. I followed a 964 Targa 4 with an experienced driver, and it was all I could do to keep up in the turns. I think he was probably sipping coffee while I was behind him trying to keep up with a pucker factor of 7or8 LOL !
Everybody in the group has been through professional training, except me. They told me they took it at about 75% speed...as I learn my car and begin to trust what it can do, I'll be off the brakes more.
A Caymen S was the lead car and the awesome GT3RS stayed in back, I would have loved to follow that car through the curves. He said it was pretty rough and he didn't have it in the stiff setting..

I am amazed at the powerband of the 997.1, I could stay in 4th and power through curves or be in 3rd and have to watchout how explosive I came on the throttle. I was only into 5th on the WOT on the short run on the highway..
really had fun and it really wore me out, we were out driving for almost 2 hrs Pullin G's lol
