Burning Questions: Clarkson said....

On the "Italian Job" movie that Jeremy Clarkson made, he loves the GT3.

He says something later that sounds like "the GT3RS may have titanium this and such but it is actually SLOWER than the standard car" (I assume GT3)

Anyone know what I am talking about? Why would he say that?

The top speed of the GT3 RS is 310 kph the GT3 is at 312! The RS comes with an optimized gear ratio (shorter) for the track .

Lol I realize he is not the final word in the world of Cars, it has always bothered me that I did not understand what he was talking about. Thank you guys for the clarification. What a dufus.

The big wing also slows the RS down a bit.
