== Vintage Sport Coupe ==
- R/A VSCp v1.0
- PD: 4.1%
- Character: Trailing throttle eagerness and on-throttle recalcitrance in equal measure.
Like my B-class 930 (above), the Carrera exhibits classic Porsche driving dynamics. Unlike the 930, this one’s polite about it, and is fairly forgiving (for a RR) if you overstep its limits. Just ease off the gas, point yourself at track out, and mat the accelerator. The car’ll handle the rest. As a nice bonus, it’s also reasonably fast. That 4.1% PD may not look impressive, but Spa favors power over finesse and this build’s very much a finesse build. It could stand a bit less tire and a bit more power, but we take what we can get.
Shift point’s at 7,300 RPM, and there’s two handy identifiers to help you hit it: The red mark on the tach (shift just as the needle lines up with the bottom edge of it) and the gear indicator turning orange. Fuel cut’s somewhere in the 8k ballpark, but power drops off fast after the shift point. Better to short shift a bit than run it up too high.
== D400 ==
- R/A D400 v1.0
- PD: 6.5%
Essentially the same setup as the VSCp version with Stock compound tires and better-looking wheels. Driving character is virtually unchanged.
== C500 ==
- R/A C500 v1.0
- PD: 7.0%
Added a bit of power and made some gearing and differential adjustments to compensate. I didn’t get the best lap in while testing, so the PD should probably be around 6.5% or so.
