Few other cars tested also, but I was surprised how quick the new AMV8 was. Looks really nice in white too.

that test was terrible. we all know the GT2 crushes the G SL by a good amount, but they cant drive that well.

Ed,

totally agree with the human factor. That's why your modded 997S is faster than my club coupe on the track.

when the SL was braking it remained in 4th which helps a little with engine braking vs the gt2 being in neutral

the vantage recently received a power hike. It has 4.7 liters instead of 4.3 and puts out 40hp more at 420hp
