Re: Sport Auto: Wet Handling Course

Very weird that it performed worse than the rest of the RWD 911s. Perhaps to heavy in at rear?

Nice catch. I think, however, that the combination of some really track oriented tires and a turbocharged engine might be a recipe for disaster on a wet course.

Nah, not really. It appears to be damn near identical to the GT3:

GT3: 39.0/61.0
GT2: 38.5/61.5

But you've also got to take into account that it's got a volcano of torque. I would imagine you've really got to feather the accelerator to keep the rear-end in check.

Exactly! I would imagine that driving a car like that in those conditions would call for a diaper.
