Not sure that Porsche want us driving their cars beyond their limits at PEC though! Could be expensive! ;) :lol:
If you have not driven off the circuit onto the grass you, or rather me, was not trying hard enough.

Keep foot planted when understeering around the bend that leads to the acceleration straights and a Macan will eat up the grass with the only drama being the Instructors knuckles going white.
A Macan went off in a big way the day before I was there, it was damaged and towed away. Apparently, in a Macan, we are liable, as I recall for £1000 of damage, possibly £5000 on 911? Someone will know for sure.

I was at the PEC this morning and may have had one minor off road excursion.... 8-)
“ fast in, slow out”😉
Is that Fast In, Towed Out?
:lol: it was pretty much fast in, ooooh this goes across the grass nicely even in the wet, slow out :geek:

it was on the low friction track in the middle. In fairness he had just asked me to see how fast I could get around it...
