Last sunday the annual Porsche Festival was held in the Buenos Aires "Autódromo".
The event consisted in 5 laps to the circuit (made slower by chicanes) and the best lap from each participant was selected.
My 3 best laps were 2 min 47sec, 2,45 and 2,44 and the second place car made a best lap of 2min 58 sec.

As part of first prize I got a lap (without chicanes) in a Cayman S driven by a Porsche instructor, amazing car and excelent driver but I think I could have done a good drive too. (with a little training

)

Nice

I'm jealous about your ride in the Cayman S. I'd love to see how they go!

Good going, Kike!

Over 10 seconds faster than the second-place driver!

What was he driving?

Actually the second place driver had the better car, he was bragging about the wide wheels, the low profile tyres ,and he also said that his engine has at least 10 more HP.
My car is 100% standard with 185HR14 tyres and no mods at all
I really buried him

he had it coming...
