    Hey, give me my car back.

    Thanks for sharing the nice pictures, Sergio.

    A little question: did you achieve the mentioned time with PSM turned off and/or chrono sport turned on?

    Hey Sergini,
    Looks like that 997 handles a Monza track-day quite well. Forza Porsche!
    Tell us, do you have PASM? If so, what's your experience of it in track use?

    Re: Trackday in Monza

    I drove the car with Sport Chrono on and off .
    In a track like Monza ,with a new set of tires (P zero Corsa System) , the difference between on and off is irrelevant in terms of grip because there aren't any tight turns that could destabilize the chassis. The difference is only the in the response of the acceleration pedal with a quicker one with Sport Mode On. Without PSM I wasn't enough brave.... to try. However the PSM has never intervened except once when I did a banal error at Ascari Curve where I destabilized the chassis. The PSM with Sport Chrono On intervened very lately and the rear went left and right but fortunately without any consequence.
    In tracks with more tight turns the Sport Chrono ON tend to make the car more responsive and critical to drive but it is much faster as the PSM intervention makes lose a lot of time out the turns compromising the speed on the next sector of the track.

    many thanks to Bady ..my personal translator .

    the car has -20 /lsd ,pccb ,sport chrono ,pirelli p zero corsa system on 19 rims ....like RC car .....maybe it's HIS car!! poor car!!
