Markos Statement

Driving a GT3 around a race track is always fun!
Especially when it's a car with such great tuning as the one we tested. The car was perfectly balanced and had good traction despite road tires. The Porsche concept of "engine & drive in the rear" makes sense.
Both braking performance and pressure point are benchmarks in the GT3, and few cars have such consistent sustained performance on the track. Unfortunately, the GT3's gearing was shorter than original and therefore not optimally tuned for the Pannoniaring, which required permanent gear changes and had a rather negative effect.
Nevertheless, the GT3 is great fun, goes brutally well, is fast and is rightly considered "the track tool", not only by 911 fans. The fact that you can even travel on your own axle due to the road registration and the value stability make it one of my favorites for the racetrack.
