I had a great weekend at VIR with BMW in my 997tt. This was my first time to VIR driving the full course, the turbo killed the almost 1 mi. long back stretch, however it does get a little unstable at 130+mph, something the new 991 shouldn't do with it's longer wheelbase.
I uploaded a short clip to youtube from one of the sessions Sunday afternoon.

I can't wait to try the new 991 at VIR next time

Since you are replacing your turbo with a 991 it does not matter I suppose but a turbo is very stable at 130 (and much more) and if you were keeping it I would suggest an alignment.

Looks like a fun day - how many cars were there? Relatively empty track and clear skies - what more could you want? Nice.
