Message	and the 997S I had didn't give you the feeling you described. If anything, it was comfortable both putting around and at track speed: but not wild with that throttle control you get with a well set-up turbo Z. However, more of a comment on the chassis & comfort than the power. I got a track lap in a 2008 GT2 with a race driver... that was scary quick and had lots of drive out of the corners, but didn't get to drive it. I was actually looking for a turbo Porsche for track, as our aging Z's just don't measure up to modern car chassis despite the mods. MY Zs ARE HYBRID VEHICLES, THEY RUN ON GASOLINE AND MONEY "I expressed no attitude, I'm correcting you. If you don't like it, try not to be wrong next time.
