JoeRockhead:With the ADM pushing the price of the car through the stratosphere (if you can even get one), one would be foolish to not look at, perhaps, the 765LT as an alternative.
That's the thing, yes the ADM pricing might pushes the car into McLaren/Ferrari territory, but the other 2 doesn't have cars that's bullet proof on the track.
Yes they can be 'tracked', but that just means doing a 20 minute session occasionally.
The GT3RS can do endless laps without complaining.
The only alternative to the GT3RS is a Cup car, which can't be driven to and from the track, an it requires a support team to run.
Whoopsy:I reckoned it will be even harder for the average driver to extra the max from the new GT3RS. Even with all the newfound suspension adjustments. Most wouldn't even know where to start outside of the basics, i.e. softening one end to give it more grip and vice versa, but even that might proof to be a challenge as the car have separate compression and rebound adjustments.
My guess and hope is that there will be shared setup settings for various tracks to provide a good starting point for the average recreational driver. Online forums and good independent shops could be good resources for this.

The 'standard' setting on the car should be able to cover the majority of the capable drivers out there. Not unlike the previous generations of non-adjustable cars. It's normally how Porsche set their car up from the factory and the setting will work on most of the tracks out there with different drivers.
The 'fine tuning' settings is there for tailoring to specific 'traits' a driver like.
One could publish a setting that's really fast for that driver, but when another driver tried it, it might be too rear happy or pushy in the front and be slower.
Perhaps I like using weight transfer to rotate the car more, I might posted a setting that has strong rebound that move the weight quicker fore and aft, that car could be too sensitive for your throttle inputs. For a driver's that's either on or off throttle applications, a slower rebound is prefer to stabilize the car better.
Verstappen's car setup is known within the Red Bull garage, Ricciardo, Albon, Gasly, Perez are free to copy and start from there. But none can handle Max's preferred settings. Same thing.

Was at the Porsche Museum yesterday to check out the new RS in person. It’s the monster beetle, an RSR with number plates. The car is aerodynamic marvel, it looks cohesive even with that wing. The only pity for me personally is the fact PTS I’m 2023 is nigh on impossible for all 911s as Porsche is far behind in getting all the requests done. Let’s see the rumor has it they offer the heritage package also for ROW and not only for the US so I’d go for that.

Heritage will later come for ROW…so no hurry with the order

Good news then👍
I spoke to my salesman about it today. According to his rumor, only some parts would become available through Tequipment .
Does anyone has a confirmation as to how it would become available ?
