The PDK is awesome if you want point and shoot. Its a way for a rich guy w/ little driving skill to become a 1/4 mile King...transmission is amazing.
996 GT2 is the last pure uncompromising drivers car. No electronic nannies just you and a car that will kill you if don't respect its capabilities.

Show me the numbers..
What I see is a stock GT2 will hit 60 in 3.4 and the 1/4 in 11.4.
A TT PDK car will be .2 seconds faster in both tests. If you compare the S model the gap is fatter. Under 3 seconds to 60 and 1/4 in the 10's.
The GT2 is an awesome car but it's not going to beat a PDK turbo in a drag race.

So the TT PDK is a good way for a rich guy to drag race and live and the GT2 is a good way for an even richer guy to die.

It's hard enough to keep a low profile.. 
I have never run her down the track. I'd love to take it to San Antonio raceway and see what she will do.

There is a .2 second difference (hardly what I call "smoked") and a 3-4mph trap speed difference. Set the flags further down the road, and we'll see a tied race...

It's the built motor.. She pumps out 1000HP on 93 and 1200 on race gas at the wheels.

Yes.. I guess smoked is a bit of a stretch.
