I saw the dyno on Bens car, and corrected power puts it at 520 crank.

oh please.

stop making so many excuses and just give credit where credit is due. The 997 Turbo was the benchmark for the GTR, and its great that it lived up to all the hype.

Dude...lighten up...gmoney is actually giving "credit where credit is due." He's complimenting the GT-R winning on a tight course.

Nice video; regardless of who wins in the end, it is too close for comfort. Hopefully this will convince Porsche to add more upgrades and power

dude...what was with all that tail out sideways malarchy with the 997...definitly loosing some time there.

excited for part 2.....the GT-R's computers and electronic 4wd's have always been amazing, i'm sure it'll at least equal the time if not beat it.
