Should've phrased that more specifcally, who wants to start a Porsche in GTS hype train?

Factory eSports team - now there's a thing.

I wonder what they'd bring over a professional team; better tuning? beta models?
Likely more a customer engagement program, which unless it's the fourth hand Hyundai Getz race team I'm really not likely to enjoy the benefit of...

'You loved them'...really? No one notice the insane under steering? It is a blessing that there's a little program that allows the extraction and repacking of the car settings (especially on the 911s, 911 GT3 rs and 718) to enable actual setup of the cars and remove the braindead-safe understeer default settings. Good basis for anyone who's doing that is the Ruf Yellow Bird and the Cayman GT4 even though even the GT4 is a bit tame.

Either way, don't go crazy over this statement. I know the company and the people there and they are very reluctant to adapt stuff like this so this will take forever to fully materialize. Idea sounds great though!
