I don't see why you cant use the ruf. only thing is that the your not going to see the Porsches without the pack. You'll just see black VW jetta's

1) How in the hell does a street GT3 walk away from an RSR like that...
2) There's so way you guys are playing with all the assists off. Sebring is so bumpy the cars are neigh on uncontrollable with them off.

Unoffically@Sebring
Porsche took 1st and 3rd in GT1 class

Porsche took 2nd in GT2 class

I was running 2nd in GT1 until my 996 GT3 flipped on it's roof. I worked my way back up and and got it back twice again but made a mistake and got a tire off in the grass and lost it. With only 2 laps left we ran into GT2 traffic and I after passing 2 GT2 cars was taken out on the inside in the braking zone in turn 7 by Omar one of the GT2 Porsche team.

Saved the replay if anyone wants has Forza 4 and wants to watch it, I can gift it to ya.

Same weight but has over 250 hp more. The RSR handles way better.

And no I don't use assits. My 996 is in the club garage. That is what I raced today.

I have 638hp and weighs 2595lbs....I use no assists at all and I use manual clutch to make it even more difficult. You can look at the replay, select my car and watch the telemetry that will confirm all this. While you're there you can select the cockpit or chase view and see how early and smooth I brake and how tight to the inside I take the last turn to miss the bumps.....Don't worry, two years ago I was also wondering how in the hell these guys were going that fast ! I got a bunch of top 100's on the Leaderboard and tons of top 500's even if I almost never drive leaderboard spec cars so it's normal that I'm faster than most of you. The experience is very important in these racing games. Greg is very close to me, he's also got thousands of these races under his belt. Just practice and persevere, it'll come !

2 years ago in a practice session (Forza) Michel kindly helped me by showing me the proper racing line and braking points around a track.... I followed him around the line and he kept his speed down for me to stay on his tail. That 1 lap was my new best lap on the track.

I guess when I can afford one, and have the room for a toy that can't be used everyday.
