GT2 and RT12 drive

some pics from Sunday drive (sorry for poor pics, the white balance on my camera was on the wrong setting)












oh, and about 180mph in the C63 camera car. not too shabby



was able to drive both 911's back-to-back. quite an interesting comparison, and reinforces that just because they look alike, doesn't mean they drive alike

impressions:

RT12
- much more of a street car (softer riding, very easy clutch)
- though exhaust noise much louder
- very noticeable power advantage vs the GT2 (no surprise)... RT12 has somewhat old school power delivery, relative to the GT2

GT2
- very much more a track car - firmer suspension, carbon brakes nicer feeling than the steels on the Ruf, feels much more "lithe" and "agile", largely i think because of the sweet steering;
- not quite as "hardcore" as a GT3 though... would be suitable for a daily drive (easier riding than GT3, quiet exhaust, maybe a bit too quiet,) if not for the clutch pedal which is not far off from the GT3, and would be murder in bumper to bumper traffic (as we have here)
- acceleration more linear than Ruf... it is fast, but you do notice a 150hp+ deficit...
