A slight cliche in that it melds automotion and aviation. However the word 'respect' is very emotive and basically that is what we all want whether we drive a Porsche 911 GT2 or anything else.

Yes GSi I was a bit, how did you guess? I have been advised that one is allowed to post whilst under the influence.

MQ - given you had been on the pop your post made perfect sense.

Nice car. Mostly will need respect from it's driver if said driver does not want to keep going through hedges backwards.

Was watching GT3 racing at the weekend. General consensus from those who race these things is that they take some getting use to. They have humbled several big name racing drivers who have guested in Porsche races in the past. Mikki H being a notable exception.

There is a reason for this They are still based on the design of a VW beetle and like the beetle they have handing traits all of their own!

MQ - it was the flowery nature of your language

Either that or a lucky guess..

GSi - flowery is my default setting. I'm embarrassed because I got the wrong end of the stick as usual. I gave a critique of the video itself when I think I should have been reacting to the awesomeness of the car?

Well I was plain old confused, as it was just another fast Porsche. Coupled with the fact that in the video it wasn't really visible, or being driven on the limit, I failed to see the point of it
