997 GT3 RS At Barbers Dec. 1/07
Heres a few laps in a new (4000mi.) GT3 RS. I am a corvette guy but I must say it was fun driving this car. Enjoy,David.http://www.jerryneal.com/porsche/997..._ALSCCA-2a.wmv

Looks like fun. I respect the GT3 RS and enjoy running with them on the track whenever I get the opportunity - just couldn't see me buying one over a Corvette.

Nice video.
When I win the lottery, I want to buy one of those cars.
What's the difference between the regular GT3 and the GT3 RS?

The RS is an amazing car for sure, and I like jody, will buy one after I will the lottery. Until then, i need a tissue for my drool.

Fun times!!! I love the sound of the wailing engine. How does the car feel in the corners? I noticed that you seem to do a lot of corrections in the corners as I see in a lot of racecar drivers in Porsches. I'm sure the car feels stable and predictable. Is it because you are right at the limit of tire adhesion or a little above?
How does the handling feel compared to the vettes you have driven?

Great Video!
I have only been once, but it was a lot fun and I plan on going many more times. I wish I could have made that event. I will definitely keep an eye out for it next year.
I am also curious on the corrections you had to make with the wheel. I saw another video of a porsche race car having to do the same. Any feedback on that? Also what tires did you have? You were flying around the track.
