If you have the chance to watch early 90's euro cup races for 964's, you can see two distinct styles of 911 driving. The "pitch and catch" cars were driven the fastest. Highly skilled 911 drivers

I wake up real quick from my dream when I try this, BUT that what dreams are for

Funny you say that, I heard a conversation between a very fast GT3 driver and a multiple time National Champion GT3 driver at an autocross a few weeks ago.

The normal fast guy was asking about entry speed and line through a sweeper, complaining about push, asking for advice. The National Champion was like, "go flying into the corner, wait for the back end to pivot and get the car pointed in the way you want, then squeeze the throttle to plant the rear end."

Strange cars these are...

i like this guy chasing that "demon" to the ragged edge... trail braking through eau rouge to get the car pivoted.

looks to be set up perfectly with the front inside tire about 4 inches off the ground...
