It has been said a couple of times already, but I think the importance of tyres cannot be stressed enough.

My Box S does not have TC, and for the life of me I cannot understand how anyone would need it (except in snow or icy roads). Of course it is possible to stop at a T-junction, dial up 4k rpm, turn the wheel and drop the clutch. Why anyone would do this to their beloved Porsche is beyond me? If your tyres are good, and suspension is in sound order, it is really very difficult to get these cars out of shape.

On the track it is a different story, but anyone pushing these cars on the street to induce a 4 wheel slide is just wreckless, and inducing a rear wheel tailslide is just idiotic.

Please drive sensibly people.
