tford is infamous around these parts
Hey Alex, great stuff. I was at Laguna that day. The editor at Excellence was a great guy and knew his stuff.

In rebuttal to the third video clip, here's how a GT3 RS passes that GT2 RS in traffic http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpheUPws-Tg (obviously Van Overbeek isn't the driver). LOL, couldn't help myself.

Haha so I guess our 3.9 aint too shabby Non pro driver, stock suspension (except for a toe-steer kit and dog bones), a bent front shock but still a 1.36 flat last year:

let's not have any premature nut licking good buddy...close to 1:37 would be a 1:36 something and exact times would be difficult to discern from the videos...the only thing we know for sure is your 3.9 is very fast and competitive with the latest and greatest factory street cars that Porsche has to offer...that is no small feat

Haha... no I was just saying we're in the ball park and of course different days etc... I like it that Tford's car overtook the GT2RS tho:P

And of course with a few mods the RS' would be a bit quicker still:P

nice vids. i thought the 2RS would be much faster than ~1:37 especially with a pro driver like JVOB. stock tires no good. i still prefer the naturally aspirated RS tho!

I looked at the videos more carefully...still very hard to tell with only a second count but the 2RS looks to be about a second quicker and somewhere between a 1:35.5 and 1:36.0...still very quick for a factory street car on factory rubber...a little tuning and the 2RS will separate itself more

Holy freakin Pac Man. The 2 is chewing up those Ferraris and turbo. Next victim please.

The 3.8RS is very intoxicating. Can't wait to see the 4.0RS in action.

Yup JOVB is super-fast obviously but out of the box those are some tremendous numbers but I just can't seem to "love" the 2s vs the 3s. I grew old:P
