We already know what happens when the m6 tries to run with a Turbo:

yea the M6 has 3.91 diff, AA ecu, sway bars, and c. filters removed. the GT3 is stock and did very well on clean runs, only being beat out by a 1/2 a car at the most. so stock vs. stock i think the GT3 can edge out the V10

p.s. kevin you gotta get the clean races posted, but thanks for posting the vids.

You have to drive it first bill, he didnt put the vids of the other mexican driver in the GT3, seemed to be about even with the passenger in the M6. So subtract mods from M6 and passenger from M6 and the GT3 would probably win.

Time for ECU/Exhaust mod on the GT3, then it would be downright nasty.

120? where?

The gt3's acceleration is very impressive. It may not be the fastest in the straights, but we all know what happens once the turns come in... the other cars will all definitely be behind.

I suppose the perfect combination of straightline speed and high lateral turning would be the gt2!

The M6 and M5 are true beasts!!! I am seriously considering a used M5 as a daily driver in the future... probably with the mods mentioned above

Dez,
Is that Jenks GT3 ? Would love to see it in person.
Need to set up another Atlanta GTG (I think Giovanni's is 8/17)...a lot of new cars including these GT3's and Alpine's beautiful 997 TT.

Bill

grecomfs is infamous around these parts
Am lucky enough to own both an M6 and 997GT3. Similar price, similar straight line acceleration, both make great engine noises, both made in Germany and both amazing. Otherwise, couldn't be more different-which is part of the fun of using M6 for DD and GT3 for fun. Life is good indeed.........

Re-read his post, Paris. He's talking about a road course track, not a highway.
