Eventually began using lift throttle to steer the car.
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.

Took my 911 (996.2 C2m, owned 10mths) to the track for the first time last Sunday.
Have had plenty of track/rally experience in FWD and AWD, and several spirited road drives in the 911 (all with PSM ON).
But I really needed to explore the handling limits in a safe environment, and there's only one way to do that safely....
Without PSM (all day) I was expecting a car that had a tendency to snap oversteer under power or on lift-off in a corner. I was pleasantly suprised how progressive the car is close to the limit and how well it communicates what's happening. The feel is exceptional.
All told a great day with one exception - on chasing a 997 C4S hard, I pushed the road spec pads and brake fluid beyond their limit resulting in a pedal going to the floor after several laps...fortunately it came on progressively and not suddenly, and I was able to pump the pedal to achieve safe braking.
Here's a clip with 3 laps from the day:

Great video. +1 on the handling being neutral and predicatable at the limits. For me this was the first rear-engine Porsche that I felt could be tossed around on the track without worry. Eventually began using lift throttle to steer the car. Cheers!
I have the same car as you. The front calipers overheat pretty easily in stock form. I have boiled both Pentosyn Super DOT4 and ATE Gold on the track in my C2. Recommend you switch to Castrol SRF fluid and some track pads. Add the GT2 brake ducts (they are remarkably cheap). I am currently running Ferodo DS11.1 pads which perform flawlessly.
Then again...who needs brakes, they just slow you down.
Exactly.
In fact it trail brakes beautifully, assisting turn-in, because you can feel so well what the back is doing allowing you to get a great balance between brake and throttle control, and the weight shifts that go with those.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
