997 TT PDK vs ZR1 - R8-V10 - GTR & Jag XKR 5.0

Didn't see anyone that posted it and I found it pretty entertaining so here it is. (small correction the TT against the Jag is a manual)

While I'm at it might as well throw these in the pot. Even though I don't have a PDK, I have a warm fuzzy feeling from watching these vids.

vs Audi R8 V10

Wow, the pdk is badassed. Is it stock? Looks to have a TA type 1 wing, I could be wrong though.
The ZR1 is bad to the bone, a tuned one spanked me severely at Pocono last year.

M5 Board tests are pretty solid and they will list any mods even if it's just exhaust. Both were stock.

Impressive, I got to drive some pdk cars on the track, they are phenominal. It would take a very well driven gt3 to spank a 997s pdk in sport plus mode.

I'm so suprised how well Jag kept up with TT. Is Jag a fast car? Or maybe because this 2010 tt was 6 speed and not pdk? It took some time for tt to pass em...

The TT was a PDK but the new Jag XKR has over 510hp.

Sig,

The GTBoard inscription on top of the vid says that the TT was was a 6 manual not a PDK.
Could that be a mistake?

Either way, impressive stuff. Thanks for posting!

Type on the upper right says 911 Turbo PDK and you can see the driver shifting with the paddles.
"Corvette ZR1 vs Porsche 911 Turbo PDK x 2 Races x 2 cameras"

Not contradicting man, but could they have not been different cars? The Jag race and the ZR1 race?
I am referring to the race with the Jag. If you watch that vid, in the upper right it say manual. If you watch through to then end, you see a lot of TTs lined up.
Just wondering because if it was a manual, then the PDK would give the Jag more of a spanking, wouldn't it?

Ah yes, good catch I didn't check the other vids. That one does seem to be a 6 speed. My mistake.

Because the Jag is not even in the same zip code as the ZR1 as far as performance, thanks for noticing that!

Now to clarify confusion, it would be great if they do a run of 997.2 manual vs 997.2 pdk. I'm really curious to find out if in fact the new tt's superb straigthline performance is purely due to pdk.

Guys, the video with the Jag was against a 997.1 Turbo manual, not the new one.
