GT3 VS Z06

[Brian Minkin]

I have instructed students who have elected to leave the PSM on in the cars.  You can feel the car doing bad things before it kicks in.  Between the seat of your pants feeling and visual observation you can advise the student what they are doing wrong.  However I have found that because the car saved them from taking corrective action they are more likely to repeat the mistake again and agian compared to the student who does not use PSM.  Their is a definite learning experience from those OH SH_T moments. The lack of throttle response after it kicks in is the most frightening part.  If you drive a car with PSM very hard and make a mistake I do not think there is anyway to save it.  I am still feeling my way through this issue but as someone that learned to drive at speed without it I am leaning towards suggesting that a student turn it off early in their high speed driving career.
