waaay too many revs for the gear.. Porsches were not meant for the "clutch dump" ever..

to test your clutch, roll along at 40mph or so in top gear, floor the throttle.. the clutch should hold the engine revs constant with the slight acceleration..

I always used to get something thrown at me, or smacked, along with alot of obscenities in german when I tried to dump clutches or speed shift a Porsche...
