By the way it's Heel and toe or with the RS it really is heal and should get the toe ( of my boot)
Ask me if I'm a little bitter and twisted about being conned into buying an RS as a dedicated track car. IT'S A BOULEVARD CRUISER AT BEST. I have to agree I was suckered in by the Porsche hype but it's a dog in the handling department.

Ron, you are really hating on the RS.....can you provide us some of your objective findings that have caused you so much grief? i.e.,setup data, tire pressures, track and conditions, your experience as a driver wrt racing etc...too many good reviews by other drivers after proper setups have prompted me to ask who dialed in your car for you? you didn't stuff your car, did you?

The speedometer in all current Porsches are off by around 3% (996, 986, 987, 997).
I was hitting 156mph indicated back in 2004 with a bone stock GT3 on MPSC. It was not possible to go flat out from T1 to T5, I needed a tap on the brakes at T2. I was upshifting at redline (8,200rpm in 4th) at 1/3 of the back straight.
It should be interesting to see the lap times with the TraqMate when I get there with the modified GT3.
