excellence cover car 2.6 secs 0-60

I just got my excellence magazine today and they did a feature on a new Werks 1 Champion 997.2 turbo. The car was blistering fast, but the PDK couldn't hold at 595 whp. Anybody seen this?

Yes, but the article also mentioned that Champion is working on new clutch plates for the PDK so it will work up to 700hp.
