And you my friend, would have the ride of YOUR life if you got in the passenger seat of a 911 at a real track with a talented instructor at the wheel. The guys I race with can do whatever they want with a 911. I once watched GF, local driving legend, 'drift' a 996 (with traction control "off") around a 360-degree turn four times consecutively, and each time it was done exactly the same. Perfectly. He was not drifting to be cute. He was going around that turn as fast as that car could do it. Trust me, you would be very fully entertained if you were to ride with that guy. Or his wife. And if it were in LG's white 914, you might not keep your food down. Your shoulders would be bruised.

Drifting is amusing. Most of those guys would have their ASSES handed to them at one of our AX events.
