Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Stupid question….maybe…? My Mrs has bought me a skid pan experience with one on one tuition for my birthday….. very nice too….. in my own car…. But it occurred to me…. Can you drive a PDK gearbox car on a skid pan and learn to control it in tail out drifts etc…..? Car is RWD at least. I don’t have a clue, clearly.

In short yes. I did a session at the PEC in a PDK Boxster a couple of years ago where the instructor taught me to do donuts on the low friction surface. Essentially the inner front wheel was fairly static whilst the rear was drifting. Great fun

You can also just put the car in manual mode too, which is what I did at the PEC

POST 5Original post

You can, I did the Silverstone PEC skid pan and wet hill in the GT2RS.
