Wow, what a beautiful automobile.  How hard was it to keep the car under control in those wet conditions? How does ride on the street? Thanks for sharing the pictures with us.

Nice! Looks like fun! Wonder how a modified 996tt 4WD with about 540-600 hp would fare against the 2WD GT-2 in the wet condition? Looks like a handful of fun!

A 600BHP TT would kill the GT2 in the wet!

Lonman,
If you make it to the next gumball in the Gt2, we will be running side by side....I will be driving my friends 996tt which puts out 520hp...
BTW,
if you have yet to install an exhaust system, get the tubi, it's amazing.....
