Video of Roebling Road
Ran with PCA out at Roebling Road in Savannah on Saturday. Had an absolute blast in my first time out in the Rx8. I was really surprised how well the car turned in and how different it was than my 911. With the 911, if I wanted more oversteer mid corner, I'd lift out of the throttle, where with the Rx8 I would plant the throttle to rotate it. It was a totally different concept for me. I carried more speed on the slower parts with the 8 and more speed on the straight with the Porsche (325hp). However, the lap times were only a half second apart 1:26.2 (911) to 1:26.8 (Rx8) on similar tires (Nitto NTO5 Vs Falken Rt615K)
