This part is too funny:

... I'm pretty sure a few of the cars (GT3 RSR) we've sent to the Far East might be on the road. Apparently ou there so long as your car has an handbrake fitted it's ok. Now when we get an order for an RSR and it specifies a handbrake I think, "Oh no, not another one!"

Excellent article TT. I rarely find anything to read about the Motorsports Division at Porsche. I thought the sidebar article about the writers experience driving was also fascinating. I never would have guessed that they brake right to the apex of the corner :? . I have always read that it is best to get your braking done in a straight line with the 911. I wonder what make that advice not applicable to the GT3 Cup car. Maybe it is the combination of aerodynamics and the ABS system. Any other ideas :wink: ?
