Included in the package are a performance
display, a digital and an analogue stop -
watch and the SPORT PLUS but ton. An
additional display in the steering wheel
and instrument cluster indicates whether
the SPORT but tons and Launch Control
have been activated.
On activation of SPORT PLUS mode,
Porsche Active Suspension Management
(PASM) and, in the S model, optional
Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC)
switch to a harder damping set ting
and offer more direct steering and,
therefore, better road holding.
In SPORT PLUS mode, the trigger thresh -
old for PSM is raised. Agilit y is perceptibly
enhanced when braking for corners with
PSM, allowing sportier braking and exit
acceleration. For maximum dexterit y,
PSM can be set to standby while the car
is still in SPORT PLUS mode. For safet y,
it is set to intervene automatically only
when ABS assistance is required on both
the front wheels.
In combination with PDK, the Sport
Chrono Package has t wo additional functions for a sport y drive that borders
on a motorsport experience. The first
is ‘Launch Control’, which can be used
on the track to achieve the best possible
standing start – a racing start.
The second function is the ‘motorsport-
derived gearshif t strategy’. Using this,
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) is geared
up for extremely short shift times and optimum shift points for the maximum
acceleration available. This combination
of uncompromising and involving perfor
-
mance is ideal for the racetrack.
A key component of the Sport Chrono
Package is the stopwatch mounted on
the dashboard. In conjunction with the
optional PCM, a special performance
display enables you to view store and evaluate lap times or other driving
times. It shows the total driving time,
lap distance, lap number and lap times
re c o rde d s o f a r.
A feature of the Sport Chrono Package
borrowed from motorsport is the dynamic
engine mounts. These exploit the laws
of physics for your own driving pleasure.
Dynamic engine mounts.
You don’t have to take the new 911 onto
the racetrack. But you can, more so
than ever, because dynamic engine
mounts are now included as part of the
Sport Chrono Package. Based on the
engine mounts of the 911 GT3 and
911 Turbo models, it is the first time that they have been available for the
911 Carrera. Even if track racing is
not for you, dynamic engine mounts
make a decisive contribution to dynamic
performance on the road, too.
The electronically controlled system mini -
mises the oscillations and vibrations of the
entire drive train, especially the engine.
The engine is bolted to the body by t wo
mounts. Like any mass, it obeys the law
of inertia. This means that it will continue
moving in a uniformly straight line unless
some force causes it to change direction.
Put more simply: when you are driving
into a bend, the vehicle will follow your
steering but, at first, the mass of the
engine will not. This means that the rear
of the vehicle will ultimately be pushed
out wards as a result of the engine’s
force of inertia.
Dynamic engine mounts minimise
this effect. Steering angle and both
longitudinal and lateral acceleration
are constantly recorded by sensors. The stiffness and damping performance
of the engine mounts adapt to changes
in driving st yle and road surface condi
-
tions, which is achieved by use of a fluid
magnetised in an electrically generated
field. This results in greater traction
and perceptibly more stable handling
under load change conditions and in
fast corners.
