Drivers Republic GT2 v GTR around the Nurburgring

GT2 - 7:49<o></o>
GTR - 7:55.9<o></o>

"so we left the Ring on the close of the second day, the GT2 was the daddy"<o></o>
<o></o>
PORSCHE GT2
“Given the times we set were both some-way off the manufacturers’ claims, how do we feel about those claims? Well, Walter’s time is 17-seconds faster than this, and having experienced the GT2 at full-afterburner, I have no doubt that the car will achieve that time. I could show you where I’ve lost five seconds on just a handful of sections.<o>
</o>
NISSAN GTR
“could the Nissan really go 27-seconds faster? I just don’t know…but I just don’t see where another 27-seconds comes from with the car I drove. I felt that I came much closer to extracting the maximum performance of the Nissan on this single-flying-lap challenge than I did the Porsche.

“But be in no doubt, when we left the Ring on the close of the second day, the GT2 was the daddy. We did the times and the Porsche won.”

Not really, but it sure is fun though. They can merge this one and Monaro's. I just felt the need to post a different one than the controversial one from a Porsche engineer.
I think people were really starting to beleive the GT-R was a match for the GT2. The record needed to be set straight.

i still think the turbo is superior to the gtr, let alone the gtr.

Don't let QUAKER see you post this about the GTR interior. He will tell you that leather "clad" interior of the Porsche is no match for the GTR's superior interior and PS3 gadgets..

The reason I say that is I've driven a GTR on track and I agree it's not impressive in a straight-line, but where it is impressive is in the dynamics/corners.
