Good point Moot. But what capabilities does the RS have that the GT3 doesn't? Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought the major differences were the flywheel, rear wing and Carrera 4 rear fenders. I haven't seen any data thus far to suggest the RS can outperform the GT3 with those differences. Fill me in.
i am not good enough to say that RS is faster than GT3, but i know if i had both cars, i would track the RS and enjoy the GT3 on street.

you are correct on those difference. but IF you had both GT3 and RS, why not use the RS for track as it has the above items already, which isn't al that useful on street. if you used GT3 for track, you would eventually put on all those stuff anyways....

FWIW, I wouldn't change the rear wing on the 3...I think they look awesome as they are and do a good job performance-wise. I would do the GT3 decals, cheaper/lighter seats for track w/ six point, mooty 18 inch tire/rim set up and track/drive the crap out of it.

RR - looks like you're seeking some logic to back up what is essentially just an emotional decision. Once one is on the path of gathering up a few toys, there is not necessarily a linear decision-making process. But to answer your question: I'm willing to prep a car to track alignment specs/stiffer suspension/and noisier. But I've gone down the pure track car route before that requires a trailer and towing and I'm just not that dedicated to track days to go that route. If I was racing instead of just having fun perhaps I would think differently about it. I hope that helps address your question.
