Porsche RS Experience
Discussion
My Mrs has put me down for this next year - bless her, what an awesome present!
Anyway, day involves 30mins in each of the following:
GT3RS
GT2RS
GT3 RS 4.0 -
Now, I can't deny that I'm really looking forward to the whole thing - I love cars and Porsches especially but what happens if I like them too much? I can't have a 2 seater as my car - it would be unfair to my kids. And they're too expensive to have as a 3rd car (and it would be a bit odd to have 2 very similar cars). I'm sure I'll like them more than mine, oh dear!
Think I'll just go along, enjoy the day and then cry when I can't have one!

Is this the "limited availability" experience day Porsche are running in March/April (?) next year?
It'll be nice to do it, even if just to say you've 'driven' the 2RS and 4.0RS, but feck me that handling circuit is short! If it was on the Silverstone circuit i would of been first in the queue
Enjoy. Nice prezzie mate

handling circuit is small but i think that as you only get limited wheel time it's perfect for this sort of thing. all the instructors seem to be good guys when i've done them, lunch is fantastic & it's basically a grand day out.
as for your other problem, well that's what daily snotters are for!

Yes well - my daily snotter's a GTS and my kids love it almost as much as me - having a GT3 RS would be an enormous wind-up if I never drove them in it, which I couldn't as it only seats 2!as for your other problem, well that's what daily snotters are for!

Yes handling circuit is short but that's OK, it's easy to learn, I intend to have a proper go in them!It'll be nice to do it, even if just to say you've 'driven' the 2RS and 4.0RS, but feck me that handling circuit is short! If it was on the Silverstone circuit i would of been first in the queue

Jp Ive done the experience this July but it didn’t involve the GT3RS, but booyee oohh boyee be blown away by the gt2rs - what a fricking car!!!
The GT3RS 4.0 is a left hooker, not used LHD so i just left it in third gear.
Enjoy....
Cool - sounds good mate. I must say in spite of the "danger" of liking them too much, I'm really looking forward to it!The GT3RS 4.0 is a left hooker, not used LHD so i just left it in third gear.

Dont know the attitude of 'instructors' but if u get going on the small track u barely get out of 3 rd ................almost makes u go dizzy
Have been around when some of the cars come out from the experience centre and use the GP circuit on track day lunch breaks .................ddont know when that applies

You must be considerably quicker than me, I only just got out of 2nd, never mind 3rd, on the section back towards the visitor building Have been around when some of the cars come out from the experience centre and use the GP circuit on track day lunch breaks .................ddont know when that applies
That was in a standard 997 carrera.

Its essentially the same course, however rather than spending 60 minutes in the 3RS you get 30 minutes in the 3.8RS, 30 minutes in the 4.0RS and 30 minutes in the 2RS.Is this the one your going on:-

I think it was an email that I received that had the details and from memory its a limited availability experience.
