NS: GT3 v GT-R

[tforth]

One of the best Nurburgring videos that I've seen. Good for all those GT-R fan-boys out there ;-):

Nissan GT-R vs Porsche GT3 RS on the Nordschleife - YouTube

Yep ! Very good video :thumbup:
Both guys in the Porsches have done one lap or two around the ring.
I understand the "drive safely" attitude of the GTR ;-)

The GT-R driver wasn't exactly taking it easy by the sounds of his tires squealing under continual late braking, and his line looked pretty good to me.

On a mixed wet/dry track as shown in this video, I think that most people would have put their money on the GT-R to walk from the GT3...

I completely messed it up with CTRL+X & CTRL+V :-(
Wanted to say something absolutely different!
I re type:
Both guys have done a lap or two around the ring but I think I prefer the Porche's driving style.
I understand the "drive safely" attitude of the GTR on 42s staying away.

You're right: I would've bet on the GTR because of better traction on those track conditions, but the Porsche driver did a beautiful job.
