Talking Porsche 911 GT3 vs Aston Martin V12 Vantage S on track


I think we can all agree we like to watch videos of Aston's sliding around the track. This one showed up on my youtube feed and I figured i'd share since it's a decent review. The one thing I always find amazing is how every single V8V, old or new has condensation in the headlights. They need to fix that already!
Enjoy,
-Peter

What he failed to mention was that the rain soaked track was a required safety feature that kept the GT3 from going up in flames.

Actually I was impressed the Aston was only 1.5 seconds slower in the wet than the GT3. Not bad for a slow trans, non track focused heavy car. Even better you are far enough back to dodge any melting Porsche bits.
