That's an alt-fact Logged “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time” Wally Administrator Hero Member Posts: 11036 Karma: 152 AC Admin Re: Fun run Feb 28 - Porsche and MX5 at Mills Metropark « Reply #16 on: March 01, 2017, 07:57:52 AM » It's interesting to hear people's opinions about the two cars. I'm quite undecided between the two. I had good races in both. As grat said, the Porsche is not a GT3 car, but a Carrera Cup car. It's slower than the GT3 cars.

I'm quite undecided between the two. I had good races in both. As grat said, the Porsche is not a GT3 car, but a Carrera Cup car. It's slower than the GT3 cars.The porsche cup series is probably the most used single make race series world wide, its so popular because its a good challenge of drivers skill in equal cars where all get the same chance but the better drivers will get a bit of an edge.The mx5 cup car is more a starter class series like the new gt86 challenge class in Australia its underpowered and over tyred so its much easier to drive. It can provide some fun racing in big close packs but its not really what Id call a drivers car. Its also only used mostly in the US where porshe cup has a full series in most countries world wide supporting many of the premier series.

You just need to alter your driving style, to be more controlled with your throttle inputs.

As Phil said reminds me a lot of the Maserati GT4 in that regard which I didn't like much at the start (I only voted for is as Marty kept complaining how boring it was), but once I had a decent setup and some practice it was a lot better.

I assume Joe will vote that as he likes the most boring option and he seemed to struggle in the porsche more as he was rear ending Wally each race start.
