Want to Know Why Porsche Went PDK Only in the GT3?
Porsche 911 GT3 PDK
Porsche just gave us a ton of info on the new 911 GT3.  While no surprise, the fact that the new GT3 is PDK only is bound to upset many traditionalists.  The crew over at EVO TV had the chance to sit down with Porsche's head of GT cars at the Geneva Motorshow and the resulting video does a great job of answering why they switched to PDK only, plus much more.

Driving the RUF CTR 3
RUF CTR 3
RUF introduced the CTR 3 in April of 2007, exactly 20 years after the legendary "Yellowbird" (the original CTR 3). With the intro of the CTR 3 RUF unveiled a major engineering change; unlike the first two CTR generations, with engines in the rear, the CTR 3 had a mid engine design. This shift in engine positioning provides even better balance and exceptional handling.
