enjoy!

 

Those videos were awesome. Even though I didn't understand a word spoken in any. I was somewhat amazed at how much faster the Turbo was than the Carrera 4S, but it looked like the Panny got a jump start off the line.

Sweet videos DJ

 

Yay, my little S car didn't come in last! Those guys were funny, I like how they laughed when they passed each other. I didn't get a word of it but it was very entertaining. The Pan Turbo is a beast.

 

I was surprised by two things:

1) Both Panny's had issues maintaining their lead around the turn. Even the LS460 was able to make up ground on the P2S around the turn. What's the deal with a PORSCHE not maintaining a lead when dealt a curve?
2) Just how easily the PTT outran the E63 off the line and in the back straight. I know it's a beast, but so is that E63. Does the AWD make that much of a difference? If so, that doesn't explain how the E63 seemed to gain some ground on the PTT once it hit the turn.

What I would love to see is the P2S directly across from the PTT, and what the gaps would be...

 

Come on, the Lexus was sad. The only reason it was ahead off the line is because the P2S probably had wheel spin. Maybe I should watch it again but I didn't see the LS460 making up ground. I knew the P2S wouldn't stand a chance against the Benz.

Yes, imo, the AWD makes a difference. That gap would be huge. PTT>P2S

 

I didn't say the Lexus was close, but it most certainly made up ground around the bend. The same with all of the other cars. The Panny's build a lead off of the start, but then seem to lose ground around the turn, only to stretch it out again once they hit the back straightaway.

 

Great job to the Panamera Turbo. I'm also really surprised that the Panamera Turbo managed a faster lap time than the 911 C4S. Great job to Porsche. I love how he took the E63 on the absolute last turn. The C4S is slower in a straight line, but it beats on track.

 

I was astonished by the acceleration of the 911 C4S
