i wondered the same but the N24 is not a street car, yet. 240kg lighter than the AMV8. more like a N24 vs GT3 Cup car if u ask me. still impressive though.

frayed is infamous around these parts
Z06s are indeed tire handicapped relative to the Pcar, accounting somewhat for the spread in laptimes.

But I don't care. The GT3 is a superior car on so many other levels.

And I don't think the 1.69g peak really means anything. It wasn't on a skidpad, and such values are greatly influenced by banking on a track.

I think it would depend on the track. A track with a lot of straights might not look good for the GT3.

Then click on page "6" and see if this helps. I believe this was in the June issue of Motor Trend. It was the most comprehensive article on handling i've ever read. Good stuff.

Best,

John
Great article.
