Thanks for speaking the truth. 90% of track day drivers can't get to the right tire pressures over the course of a run (I know I can't)... and yet this RS has its owners fawning over compression rebound and diff settings ad nauseum... In an alternate universe Porsche could've shown us a masterclass in "less is more" ... and arguably that would've been a more relatable product for the masses too.

I’m not at all surprised. The 992 GT3 RS looks intimidating because that’s what it is ! For specialists only. Not everyone is a Walter Röhrl 😎

Great vid- 3RS is a definitely a car that challenges drivers but the elephant in the room that Richard touched on is really cost. Many who are well heeled enough to track the 992 3RS 10 times a year with a trainer have worked out it is cheaper, safer, faster and therefore more entertaining to do the same thing in a 991 cup car on slicks. Unfortunately this leaves very few guys to track the 992 3RS 10 times a year and therefore it is indeed a car that is too much for their respective owners with the exception on a few rare individuals who have coin and genuine track talent. Some say that is a mistake by Porsche but 1. It is making them money; 2. It has lifted the brand; 3. It funnels the well heeled into Porsche Motorsport.

Thanks for your comment, interesting perspective.

90 percent of us buy cars for bragging rights, we just don't have the ability to push the limit of the cars we own. Ultimately I think the majority of us would be just fine with a base model Carrera with a manual box and have as much if not more fun on a daily basis in a base car.

That is the brutal truth. There's a lot of ego massaging with the sale of sports cars and most of us are happy to go along with the fiction that buying one will transform us into a driving god.

Great vid Lee, hopefully everyone spends more time in the seat of the 992 GT3RS and pushes their limits towards the cars limits!!

Very,very good video. I am taking my RS to the Nürburgring and Spa in September . I have done this with my three previous cars, 991RS, 997.1RS and 997.2RS. Clearly will have to think about how far to push and my instinct is to stay well with limits. I am not trying to find ou the limits of the car. The limit is the driver., and this car seems to be a lot different from its ancestors.

At the end of the day, this is not a real problem unless you're driving in a series. Who cares? It's the difference between a race driver or a casual track driver. I love my car I drive it as fast as I can in it and love it, i don't go home crying saying I'm not a professional racer I'm not fast enough what am i gonna do, im not gonna sleep tonite. It's a video for the sake of a video.

Thankfully the rear wing can also be a nice flat stable surface on which you can rest a hot coffee. Burning your fingers is never pleasant.

Always criticising the new stuff. It’s getting boring mate.

It's a real life discussion point, from someone that supports owners at the track. He constantly says the car is fantastic, there is no criticism of the car. The point is the seasoned track driver now needs training to push the limits in the new car, and will they invest time and money in changing their driving.

irrelevant actually … only two types of buyers … deep pocket ego trophy owners and pure track day nuts looking for a bigger fish bowl … few average anyone will own the GT3 RS and that is Porsche’s objective
