I presume Doug DeMuro demurro’d? So long, Travis Okulski, we hardly knew ye, but Jalopnik was all the more enjoyable for your writing and track smarts, if not your acting chops. Fare thee well.
Exactly who was in my mind as I was reading this.
Don’t make me & Torch come round to see you...

I’ve driven PDK and I thought I was OK with it, but I cannot lie, after going back to stick I will stick with stick. There’s just something more satisfying about executing a heel-and-toe downshift than having the computer do it for you, even if you’re a couple of tenths slower around the Nordschleife ;-) (haven’t…
All they need to do is resurrect the 997.2 GT3/RS line and stick a 991 body on it. I’ve come to the conclusion that the 997.2 GT3 variants were the finest Porsches in the history of the marque.
