Glad you enjoyed, did you get much of a chance to get to 9k rpm on that little track. Shame the GT cars don’t use the F1 track instead
That looks like one hell of a line up outside the front door
I imagine there were a few envious glances from those only getting to test the ‘ordinary’ models

Were you using downforce to drive upside down on the second pic?

The red GT3 appears to be unregistered?

Lucky boy, Arif!
Thanks for sharing the pics.
So you're gradually working through your backlog of outstanding PEC vouchers then...?

No point in asking if you found the limit (revs or grip!) during the day.....!.?

Thanks Guys - the line up at the front door was impressive with a 911 R as well! I took a bunch of mates with me as I had 3 other unused experiences - so yes the boys were super jealous of my GT3. Had a great time getting to 9000rpm a few times and the grip on this car is astonishing - that is in the dry! It was really interesting to drive it on the skidpan with the super slick tyres - this car needs to be handled carefully in those conditions. It is also pretty sensitive to tyre temperature - if you are going to get drive it hard you have make sure the rubber is warm - that is true of most cars but with these pilot cup tyres even more important.
The GT3 was unregistered, probably a pre-production model. PEC have had it all its life and it currently has 9500 miles on the clock!
