tried adding this before but it never appeared in my garage so just trying again

987.2 porsche Cayman s PDK
had the car since about march 2015 after upgrading from my 987.1 cayman 2.7 manual since i can now afford the insurance on the s mode.

its my daily driver come rain or god forbid snow and my track day weapon of choice, mods are very basic pagid rs29 pads,motul rb660 brake fluid , slotted brake discs seeing as the drilled stock rotors cracked between the holes at donnington gp and gtc brake ducts basically i have improved the brakes to take some serious track abuse i may go to the girodisc flotaing rotors in the future but they are pretty costly.
i have changed the stock steering wheel as i couldn’t stand those toggle switches to switch gears so i now have the proper flappy paddles :-), up coming upgrades probably another set of wheels to fit track tyres as the Michelin supersports are great but they tend to limit my track sessions to around 15 minutes as they get too hot, maybe even treat myself and get some pilot cup 2’s. and finally i have a set of KW variant 3’s on the way so i will get the cars alignment more track focused lower it a bit and get the car corner weighted.

How did you go about changing the stock steering wheel?

Got my local porsche centre to do it you can buy the sport plus wheel from design 911 but it’s the same price directly from a porache centre think it cost about £900 including fitting I sold my old one on ebay for £200 couldn’t stand those bloody toggle switches

Nice car, I like your video on Silverstone. You drive very accurately and with alot of concentration, overtake only where you are “allowed to”, no wannabe moves (like some do) etc. I respect you very much for your driving skill aswell as for that nice Porsche :D !

Cheers mate track days are all about having fun if a car comes up on you unless your in traffic they are going faster than you so let them past its that simple your not racing unfortunately some people don’t realise that simple fact
