I strongly recommend anyone who wants to have a big grin for about 48 hours straight to take one of these courses.

I was a little saddened that I think I would mainly use a Cayenne for mundane activities when they are capable of so much more.
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.

Hi all,
Last week I was finally able to attend my fist PSDS course. I had been wanting to go to Birmingham for Porsche USA�s driving school, but I had an opportunity to go to Leipzig last week. And what a blast that was! The instructors were superb, the installations outstanding and it was all organized with German precision and skill.
It all began on a Saturday morning at 7:30, when I was introduced to my 2011 C4 with PDK. At first I was surprised and somewhat disappointed because after living in Europe for a couple of years, I know automatic cars are the exception and not the norm. I was one of the few people who did not bring their own car, so I was informed that all 911s for rent were automatic. There was one guy with a Boxter Spyder rental, which happened to have standard transmission, but both 911s and Panameras were PDKs. Oh well.
I cannot say enough good things about the whole experience. All of the activities were educational and I can honestly say that I pushed that car much further than I would have ever pushed my own. And it performed beautifully.
The last two activities were perhaps the most exciting ones: Free driving and hot laps with instructors. Although there were some people on the free driving who still acted like douche bags, it was overall an extremely rewarding experience, and I was surprised to find that after 15 minutes my mouth was dry and I was drenched in sweat (I did not run the AC on purpose). Lastly, the hot laps just illustrated what a novice I am (after 25 years behind the wheel) at driving.
There was a short activity in which we were put into Cayennes in pairs. At first it felt a little like a sales demo, but after a few �obstacles� I was truly impressed by the Cayenne. I was a little saddened that I think I would mainly use a Cayenne for mundane activities when they are capable of so much more.
I strongly recommend anyone who wants to have a big grin for about 48 hours straight to take one of these courses. I do not know how the PSDS courses rate compared to other driving courses, but I am pretty sure that they would be hard to match.
The biggest lesson of the course for me was: PSM is a VERY good thing.
Enjoy!
p.s. It may take me a couple of iterations to load the pics correctly, I apologize in advance for that. I'm following a fellow Rennlister's advice, please let me know if there is a better way to do this.
My pleasure. If anyone is interested in additional info, send me a PM. I've been having driving withdrawals since I left Leipzig.
And no, I'm not getting commission from recommending the course.

Have you tried to click on them? If I do it takes me to the photobucket site and the pics there are larger, but I have the account's password. If it doesn't work please let me know and I will repost them. Sorry about that.
Let's see if this works better:
