He said the driving was tense due to all types of fast traffic, lack of knowledge of the track and car, but the smile on his face proves he enjoyed it! He said the GT3RS ride was what he expected of a race car. He has a recording of his ride along but has not reviewed it. He did say top speed during his ride was 160mph!

The Ring
The youngest kid went to Germany for a quick vacation with a couple of buddies. They visited the Porsche and MB museum and The Ring. He drove two laps in a rental then did a one lap ride along in a 992 Porsche GT3RS!!

Re: The Ring
What a cool experience! I'd love to know the name of the company he did the ride-along with. I might be in Germany in 2025 or early 2026 to see family.
I've seen so many videos of public traffic days on the nordschleife and tense is certainly an apt description. Glad he didn't bin the rental

Re: The Ring
Cool thing to do. And the Porsche & MB museums are unbelievable. The BMW complex (BMW Welt & their museum) in Munich ain't too shabby either.
