@Joseph Wright will be our commentator for this event, observing the action from a comfortable, brand new Porsche Macan Turbo.

I, as always, would like a piece of this action as well, so I'm going to be throwing the amazing 991 GT3 Cup generation 2 around the corners.

Lets get it going!

[Eugene Abramoff]

You are not that slow, but you might wanna practice before, there is no ABS this time and this cars are not easy without it.

 

[DowntownSIX]

No ABS makes braking zones more interesting - sign me up!

 

[Eugene Abramoff]

Kunos please add this skin, I know its same as RSR and 919 gets one too, and Porsche gave it to GT3R as well... But at least it could delude miserable selection of skins that we have now

 

[Joao Borges]

I'll give this a shot! What's the worst that can happen?

 

[Bobby Pennington]

I think I would like to try it with you guys if that's ok. @Joao Borges I know I got nothing, but it was fun watching you drive Friday night.

 

[JO Simracing]

Count me in please. Thanks.

I see this was the last time I was with the Cup in Silverstone...

 

[GlenAlz81]

Count me in for this one please.

I always thought that new Cup car didn't have a clutch pedal, because for some reason it never worked for me in AC. GT3 cars, yes, it works, but not Cup. When I saw that you use it, I was gonna ask about it, but then I decided to check some pics, and the car does indeed have a 3rd pedal.

So whats up with AC then? Is it a bug or something, can you properly declutch when rolling?

I only use it for the start but it indeed works. I have actually tried it again and it behaves like any other clutch/car when you use the clutch in all circumstances...

Yeah, like any of these cars, its only used to get off of the line. But last time I tried, it didn't work so that was odd. So I though it was similar to GT4 Cayman, just a regular auto, 2 pedals. We'll see maybe it was fixed.
