They didn't have track times for the power lap, wondered how much faster than a F430 it would have been...

dak125 is infamous around these parts
Ferrari F430 1.22.9
Porsche 911 Turbo 1.31.0

That's the only 911 Turbo on the list, I would assume it's a 996.

Stig had an off day? I think it is the 996... 997 turbo should have a much faster time...

He said the Porsche is lighter than the F430. Surely that isn't true. The F430 isn't nearly 1600kg.
