I use my cheap Porsche RS Spyder watch for summer or sports. It tells time and don't care if I scratch it up. As much as I love Porsche, I could never bring myself to purchase a PD watch. Not my style.
Peter, you think DE is expanding? Anyone else feel that way? I would have thought the opposite with all the hybrid, green initiatives. Maybe there's no real track around here for people to gey excited about.

I don't think track driving is growing, but perhaps the rate of decline has abated. With the costs and insurance issues, the lack of facilities and woeful logistics, at least around California, it's a painful, tedious, expensive and difficult sport. People think of snow skiing or sailing as wildly expensive, golfing is exclusive and so on, but you don't have to buy $100K of skis and risk destroying them every second you're on the slopes, nor do you have to buy a $2000 pair of boots every three days ... etc. etc. Not much confusion about why track driving isn't booming. Now we have noise regulations and Porsche has sullied its reputation for standing behind its product so you can go into the dealer and they'll deny warranty because you've been photographed by PCNA at the track or they'll low ball you on trade-in and start every conversation with "have you tracked it?" As ever, Porsche takes square aim at its own foot and proceeds to milk the calf while staring the gift horse in the mouth.
Here for sure it's growing fast. Cheap gas, low taxes, no one cares about emissions or noise, except for the bible belt areas.
I send my track video's to my dealer's X man and never had a non warranty issue. Track insurance underwriters are awesome, local and fellow DE participants.
Florida is DE paradise.

Well you live on the wrong coast.
You live on the wrong coast as wel.

As for CA vs FL, I've made my bed, but that's why I mention, it's different here and there (especially overseas where driving is not a thought crime.)

This is a misconception. It's not just the "money shift" that will exceed the redline. Any time the engine is near the redline, if one or more tires loses traction, it's possible to exceed the limit. You can imagine getting airborne at a crest, a rear tire going over a painted berm in the wet, downhill or partially releasing the clutch for an upshift without having first started to close the throttle.

Any GT3 driven with gusto should expect to be found to have range 1 (many) and range 2 (some but much less) overrevs. My Cayenne with a freaking 8 speed automatic transmission has a few range 2 overrevs. Unless someone is simply seeking an excuse to worry, it is nothing to be concerned about.
Money shifts (range 3+) are the ones to cause genuine concerns.
