Now that all the specs are on the table what are your predictions regarding SA time around the ring? My spiderman senses are telling me it will beat the Zonda S, but is it mighty enough to beat the CGT? I'm doubt full. I'd say 7.42-43

Porsche Carrera GT ------------------------------------- 7.32 min
Pagani Zonda F ----------------------------- 7.33 min
Koenigsegg CCR --------------------------- 7.34 min
Porsche Carrera GT ------------------------------------- 7.40 min (wet track)
Pagani Zonda S ----------------------------------------- 7.44 min
Porsche 911 GT2 (462hp) ------------------------------ 7.46 min
Lamborghini Murciélago LP640 -------------------------------- 7.47 min
Porsche 996 GT3 RS ----------------------------------------- 7.47 min
Porsche 997 GT3 RS ----------------------------------------- 7.48 min (R-tire)
Porsche 997 GT3 ----------------------------------------- 7.48 min
Corvette C6 Z06 ------------------------------------------ 7.49 min
Lamborghini Murciélago -------------------------------- 7.50 min
BMW M3 CSL -------------------------------------------- 7.50 min
Ford GT -------------------------------------------------- 7.52 min

Nah, wont beat the CGT. CGT is a midengine car with an incredible balance. Somewhere between 7.40-7-45 min

Keep in mind that 997 GT3 isnt much faster than 996 GT3 around N-ring.

I'd love to see the geared speeds for each one of those six ratios...
Actually it's only 274 kW per ton.

Awesome! Just what we needed! Thanks a million Luw. I'm speechless.

The same thing happened with GT3, the brochure leaked...

You're quite right DeDe; I got my 1000 / 1440 kg's the wrong way round! Bah - back to school for me.

Thanks dude.

DeDe's timely correction puts things beautifully into perspective for us.

Imagine. You've got a car that weighs around what a Clio II 1.1 litre does. And it's got 274 kW. Which is more power than an M3 CSL.

Imagine further. You've got a car that weighs around what a Clio II 1.1 litre does. And it's got 476 Nm [!!!] Which is more torque than an F430.

Dis frikken ting is gonna fly!
