    Hi there,

    I wanted to ask for some tips on driving the mighty Porsche 962 Group C. I took it out for a roll, and I noticed that I was getting some damage while driving for a few laps on the second damage indicator (engine?), so I thought I must be doing things wrong with putting in the gears. It usually happens when upshifting from lower gears, perhaps the clutch timing is wrong, or I'm letting the engine rev too high while shifting...

    I'd like to learn to manage the car without destroying it, any help would be appreciated!!

    I shift and a little lift from the throttle during an intentional shift. I do this just for the traction but maybe will also help for your engine care
