Default The GT3 steering! It talks to me!

The more experienced 911 owners probably take this for granted but I just wanted to take a moment to write this post about how my gt3 talks to me in the curves. It feels as if I know what the limits of adhesion are and when to use additional throttle for steering. Which in itself is just fantastic! I mean steering with throttle? WTF! But man that is just awesome.

It is finally raining here a little and I took the car out to some curves and boy was it fun. Here she is taking a rain bath before our sojourn in the mountains.

I suspect the e-steering won't be talking so loudly.

That is what I am afraid of. I love the new gt3 and its fire cracking shifts (I love technology) but the steering part worries me a little. I would love to try it out once I have a chance before I make up my mind though.
