Well as long as you let the tyres warm up first which unfortunately my mate didn’t quite do on the first lap!

Have the video behind too

Ouch!! A beautiful GT3 too. :(
Looking from the front its beautiful, not so keen on that angle though. Just my opinion ;)

Out of curiosity, when you book the day is it just for one individual or can there be a +1?

You take take someone with you. You can also share the driving if you want, you have to notify PEC first though.

I took my son-in-law yesterday. Both of you get fed and watered. Each of you get about 1 hr 10 mins on the tracks which actually is enough for me as I told my instructor that I wasn’t bothered about the low friction surface and preferred to concentrate on the two handling circuits as I have been about 6 times previously.
As I have mentioned I was surprisingly impressed by the P Zeros in the wet and when looking at the specs they are rated A for wet weather

I thought I’ll update you all regarding my PEC experience.

To remind you all, on my day at the PEC, I was given a Macan 2.0 to drive, where on my booking it stated Macan S, same as my new order.

I had written to PEC to investigate why this was the case and after a couple of days investigating, they had found that when they entered the car license into the system to pull from their pool of cars, they had entered incorrectly one of the characters and allocated me the wrong car to me drive.

They have very kindly apologised and offered me another half day PEC experience with the Macan S.

Thank you all to those who asked me to follow up with PEC on this matter.

I have my PEC “re-”experience booked for the 20th December. So really looking forward to this again. I have asked if I could bring my wife and 8 year daughter to watch the experience and they kindly agreed and also offering the breakfast, lunch and refreshments for them too. My daughter has been going on how she wished she could have gone last time and being Xmas school break and wife also off from work until the new year, it was great timing.

She is so excited about getting our Macan S when it finally arrives and the Porsche brand overall. I think she will be an avid future Porsche enthusiast with many coming her way.

This in the mean time at least lessens the blow of the recent news of our Macan S order.

I will keep you posted on my experience of the day.
Collected: Gen III Macan S, Night Blue, Surround view, Acoustically insulated laminated privacy glass, Bose, 18" Spare wheel, PS+, 8 way Black/Mojave Beige two-tone standard interior

Ordered July 21, Collected February 22
