Gauss:
Today I met up with a friend in the Eifel and drove a couple of laps on the Nürburgring. Driving during the week is so much more relaxed and rewarding, because there's no traffic when you want to get off the track and you always find a parking spot, unlike on the weekends.
The car is a bit nervous, it's jumping around a lot, but that keeps you on your toes. Lots of adrenaline rush (also due to the noise). I guess that makes this car so special, you have to work it and control it. To me the car offers equal fun, whether it's on winding country roads or on the race track. What I have learned to like the most since I took ownership last August is the way it drives, the handling of the mid engine concept. It's sublime 
The noise inside the cabin however is borderline excessive 
I also saw my first GT3 RS live. The car looks over the top for anything else than driving on a race track. I love it.
Going back on Saturday & Sunday, albeit the dreadful traffic.
And that bold part, is the essence of the GT4RS. It's a proper driver's car, Porsche hasn't has a proper one in a long long time. It rewards good driving. It was how Weissach tuned it to begin with. The nervousness came from the mid engine layout, and under-tired to boot.
Very unlike the very tame 992 GT3, where it's drama free fast, just about anyone can go really fast in the GT3.
I suspect the GT3RS will tip the scale over to the nervous side over the stable GT3.
