I am not an expert by any means but wow that gt3's line at the beginning 2-3 min was not so great.

Can you really compare a "stage 4" car to a stock one.

I would say there might be an argument for a stage 1 or 2 997 vs a gt3 but stage 4?

I agree driver of turbo in a different class to GT3 driver but interesting with stock turbo and stock engine the two cars performance was quite even I thought with the PDK giving the GT3 the slight edge (in the right hands

)

Gotcha. I Didnt know that.

I would be curious to see a stock gt3 vs stock 997tt (or tune only) since power is same but obviously delivery and weight are different.

Im going to look around but im not sure a video exists. Its pretty obvious that at this point anyone that films races in a 997tt has modded their car since it has been out so long. All the stock ones are owned by the non racing event type owners i reckon.
