Nürburgring Impressions

The GTS 4.0 is the sweet spot of the lineup. Its naturally aspirated flat-six shrieks to 7,800 rpm while the chassis remains forgiving on long stints.

Sector Times

Tire Strategy

• Michelin Cup 2 R ran 4 hot laps before heat soak.
• 29 psi front / 31 psi rear hot pressures delivered the best balance.

Notes

1. Brake pedal stayed firm thanks to Porsche Surface Coated brakes.
2. Manual gearbox offered the most engagement but cost ~0.2s per lap vs PDK.

If you plan on repeated track days, budget for extra camber shims and a baffled oil pan.
