Two weeks ago I drove a 2011 Cayman R, a 2011 Panamera Turbo S, and a 2011 997 Carrera 4S -all with PDK - on a Porsche NA autocross course. The PDK is nice (for a manumatic) but I'd still take a standard manual anyday.

With that being said; can you get by with a PDK for occasional track days? Yes, of course.
