997 RS tracking/geo check needed at 3k miles?

[AdamT]

I remember being told that it was a good idea to do it.

Is this true and worthwhile?

thanks,

Never heard this tbh honest Adam......

I think it may be a good idea to have it checked every season or so, and especially if it's
seen a lot of track use using lots of kerbs, but other than that, i wouldn't have thought so.

Did you have it done when you first got the car or is it still on factory geo?

If you plan to track the car get the geo set accordingly. Reduces understeer Improves turn in, balance and stability under braking.

If if was indeed done 3k miles ago I very much doubt it will need done again - unless you've hit something.

It is factory standard setup,

Ill head over to the local OPC here and see what they have to say.

We have a few more days booked, but as the season is coming to an end perhaps worth getting checked out.

Thanks for thoughts

Are you near the Ring Adam?

If so Manthey or Black Falcon might be a better place to go for a Geo.

In the UK - JZM, Parr or Fearnsport are the acknowledged experts.

OPC is only any good for road related issues. Most of them haven't got a clue when it comes to track day set-up. That's why most of us use Parr Motorsport, JZ Machtec or one of the independants who have racing experience especially those with PORSCHE.

No where near the ring (door to door its 450kms)

Ill stop by at ruf then.

Thanks guys.
