Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I was also pretty pleased to see that my usually spotless motor looked thoroughly used today, the dirt blending in well to the black paint and contrasting against my PCCBs.

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.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I bought my 997 C4S back in Aug and have a little over a 1000 mile under my belt, slowly but surely I've been gaining confidence in the car and my ability. Today I went for a drive on Snakespass, Woodhead Road and the A6024 climb to Holmfirth. What an awesome drive, loving the note when the engine hits 5k revs, purely addictive. I was also pretty pleased to see that my usually spotless motor looked thoroughly used today, the dirt blending in well to the black paint and contrasting against my PCCBs. I also feel proud that I have begun to use more of the power available to me. Can't wait for the next time. Any of you guys have any similar stories this weekend

3 great roads when there ain't any wagons around! I wished I'd had chance to go for a spin myself today as they are only 15mins from me

POST 3Original post

About 6 months after purchasing my GT3 (996.2 CS) a few of us went out to the west coast of Scotland. I'd been gradually building up my confidence with the car (having come from an AWD Impreza where it's almost impossible to crash) up to that point but that weekend everything just clicked in the twisty bits,heel and toeing etc was perfect and I just loved the whole experience. The harder you push that car the more amazing it is! Going back again in May

The harder you push that car the more amazing it is! Going back again in May I too have just bought a 997 C2S coming from a 340 bhp 2005 Sti, and I echo your statement, it was almost impossible to lose control in that thing. I've slowly been finding the limits in the Porsche and it does feel a little scarier than the Scooby, but it's definitely a more rewarding drive.
