Do you reckon? Looks pretty decisive to me. Audi's own figures are a mile off the Turbo's.

What a surprise! After the Audi R8 V8 has been destroyed by the Porsche 997.2 C2S PDK, I would not have thought that the R8 V10 keeps up sooo well!
nice job gtboard!

Straight is nice to watch. That back loop is a sleeper. Love the looks of the R8....but the Turbo...well, FTW!

Good race. Deciding between those two cars is a really tough choice nonetheless. Both are classics, although wonder what next-gen 911 will do to prices. Think Porsche are about to introduce game-changing tech to their next generation...

Here's the strange part. The Audi feels much faster than the Porsche. I test drove a pdk turbo the other day and thought it horrid and boring. Much less engaging than the Audi.
