Thumbs down Umm, yeah right

Had the NSX been on street tires (not R-compound) it would've been dead last. And the drivers' of the 911 and Ferrari aren't even pushing their cars

well....exactly!!! why would anybody want to waste their time watching six supercars going around the track by drivers with no skill? it would be different if you had some real race car drivers in those cars to give them the credit they deserve......THAT would fun to watch and be a good race!

Drivers with no talent? LOL Do you have any idea on the backgrounds of these drivers?

It was interesting watching the Lambos utterly destroy the Porsche.

NSX-R is a serious machine that has run faster lap times than the 911TT. I believe a GT3 would have been a better car for this comparison. These drivers are all profressional drivers, former JGTC drivers. I think the race turned out about how one would expect. The 911TT is the wrong car for this race, a GT3 or GT2 would fair better, same with the modena, a stradale would perform better. Either way the modena is getting old. The M3CSL was just out classed.

btw, the NSXR is not running r compound tires.

The Ferrari Driver was too worried about getting his car hit than driving it!

I enjoyed the hell out this video and I dont' think there was anything wrong with the quality of the the drivers. I'd like to see more of these type of videos personally.

BTW, it seemed like the 996tt was a tip, am I wrong?

Anyone know where the GT3 or GT2 were in light of the NSX "R" and M3 "CSL"? Afterall this is a track test. Additionally, the 360 CS would have been more appropriate in that venue as well.

I agree with ColorChange, very enjoyable video. Not F1 quality driving, but a hell of a lot better than I could do.
