I"m disappointed that it's that much slower than a CGT. I was hoping it'd be nearly as fast. But it's still awesome.

Wow the GT2 is just as fast as the DTM in a straight line, beats it on the track and its 50k less. I guess the DTM is a nice car, but that much more than a faster Porsche? No thanks
