Pista-STO- 765LT- AMG Black series

SoCal did you line up a 992 GT3 PTS in the same color as your 765 Spider?

 

Congrats on getting a PTS allocation; they are somewhat limited and that Signal Yellow is a beautiful shade!

Black calipers. Nardo and volcano orange are quite different.

 

Love this color. Saw one at Lamborghini/MClaren Irvine... stunning!

 

The flec in supernova solar and ignot (sp) black are NUTS. First time I saw the black in person was last weekend. It’s crazy. Supernova is so bright you can’t stare directly at it in the sun.

 

Just like my Carrera White. Blinding. Because of the whiteness. It obviously does not have any metal flakes.

Anyone have a view on whether Porsche will do a 992 GT2RS?

 

I consider that to be a forgone conclusion. The question is whether it will also include hybrid assist as I believe they package protected for it in the 992 platform. Also a question whether it will happen in the 992.1 or wait until the 992.2. My guess is the latter.

 

So its worth picking up a current 2RS as thats a long time to wait

@cadster there are 2 STOs at Charolette. I was just there and got to check them out. 1 white eand 1 black. Black one got stealth film on it. They were able to do one piece on the front clip but not the rear. Overall a great looking job from what I saw.

 

765LT - No. Never own a McLaren before. Carbon tub frame and it's probably the most track-focused McLaren out of the outgoing 720s platform except for the Senna. However, not special enough. Not gonna pick.
Pista - Currently owning one. Love the design. Very comfortable on the road; very balance on the track while adjusting the heights, corner balance and alignment right. Don't like the soft suspension at lower speed tight corner. Love the power and transmission. And finally, so so so so beautiful.
AMG GT Black Series - Not interesting. Very fast laptimes for sure, but could get overheat according to Car and Driver. Would pick a 765LT or even Pista for track. Does not look sepcial enough too. Used to own a Viper ACR. GT Black is another level for sure, but still feels like a idea-knockoff.
STO - Might consider. Seen in person. Looks cool and better than press pictures online. Driven for a while on street. Don't really like the transmission calibration with the engine. At lower speed it shifts slow and clunky. Love the exhaust sounds, way better than the cars mentioned above. The aero design while being cool, it is way too exaggerated.
If I want add another car at this level, might consider GT2 RS. Never own a rear engine car. Wanna take it to track more. Or a SVJ for its styling, amazing V12 sounds.

I do have some questions: a. Is 765LT solved the problem that 720s has when tracking it could have its engine overheating? b. Do you think 765LT drives better on track compared with Pista or GT2 RS? I have not driven 765 yet

 

To me the Pista felt softer than the 765 on the track and the brakes not nearly as good. I also got a bit of turbo lag between 3rd and 4th with the Pista that I don't feel in the 765. With this said they are both fantastic. I didn't push too hard with my 765, maybe 60% of my ability so no issue with over heating. Personally I prefer to track my race car vs. my street cars. This is not to say I won't take the street cars out but I'm not pushing them the same.
