EVO versus 993 and GT3

Link to Vid on YouTube... hope I'm posted this in the right forum.

let me know if the link is incorrect... for us EVO owners, this is a moment to be proud. Action happened at MSR over labor day - my lucky weekend folks!

ROCKS

Interesting driving technique - you push and pull based on your right hand position (not to mention shifting!).
I think I may do the opposite, basing my steering technique around my lefthand.

no wonder porsche drivers are afraid to look at our cars on the street because they are eaten up alive on the tracks

Of course, it'd be more impressive if they'd been going faster - video puts them at ~1:34.

Try sacrificing the apex in Boot Hill to get a wider line through, and better drive out of, Tombstone and see how you like it. In the Evo, you can carry enough speed out onto the back straight that even the 'Vettes have a hard time passing.
