Clutch,
one of our friends went to the Porsche School at Road Atlanta a year ago. he has 6 Porsches, and he never was too attached to his 996 until he came back from the school. he said similar things to what you said. apparently those who think that the 996 isn't a fast car are the same people that get scared to shift at anything above 3000rpms (no matter the car they're in). he said he got going around 130mph in no time, and the big downhill drop was pretty scary at first. after he got back from the Porsche driving experience, he bought a 996 Turbo, and another 996. we've only seen him in his older 911s once since he got back from the Porsche driving experience.
when exactly did you go? he might have been in your class.
