Default Video: Soaking 996 GT3 Cup

Last race of the season. Soaking wet. Tried out my new 2 GoPro Hero3+ camera's but for some weird reason, the rear camera stopped recording after 5 minutes. Need to check the settings. Was a pity because it was a constant battle between myself and the 991 Cup for the lead. Managed to finish 2 second ahead of him.
Last overtake where i went right of the 944, he was on my left hand side and this was the only way to keep the lead. Looking forward to more action next year.

Nice driving, I'm sure the ABS really helped in the wet!

Great start and nice yell at the end.

Love that 6-cup sound!

What tire did run?

Thanks. Was only able to take the lead in the rain. In dry this 991 Cup is 5 seconds faster per lap
Tires are Michelin full wets (P2G) Used, at least 4 races before.

Speaking of rain tires:
Do rain tires have also around 8 heat cycles just like slicks ? Or do wets work different ?

Somebody has been practicing

Passing people in Scheivlak, on the outside, in the wet. With a bit of grass cutting
