Looks like 54-55ish seconds start to finish. Takes off at :10-:11 and finishes at 1:05 at the checkered hay bales

Most Ive heard from who were there said the GT3 was possibly the best sounding production car bar perhaps the Fiat. Apparently at 9000rpm people who werent even observing turned around for a look.

Love the way AP almost looses it at the end of the session coming into the que. Goes to show you can still have some fun...
It easily does it in ~54-55seconds from the in car video I just posted. Pretty quick If a 2010 RS is 1.04s this new GT3 KILLS it If people say it won't be involving or fun to drive because of the PDK-S they are crazy...

with hay bales on each side, don't think I would even consider driving it. Just not worth it.

Holy crap that was quick. Im made it 55s worst case senario. VERY impressive when you think the P1 "only" did 53 seconds with one of the world fasted F1 drivers a few minutes before!

Sounded like it was spinning up its wheels in first three gears! Sounds was just awesome and the direction change was immediate. The in car sound track was immense!

Honestly. I really do find it hard to believe this car will be anything but the best GT3 Porsche have produced to date and a raging success and defy anyone to watch that with the sound up and not me emotionally excited about it MT or no MT...

Bring it on. Cant wait!

The silver 918 at Goodwood could possibly be "Liquid Metal Chrome Silver" - a $63,000 option.

That and it's sister color "Liquid Metal Chrome Blue" look stunning. Not sure about $63k stunning... For that price it better look like a million dollar paint job and be bulletproof as well.

It would be interesting if it ever showed up on the 911's option list.

55 seconds!!! unreal. This is solid race cars area.

The MPSC-2 must be shocking good, the Dunlop Sport Maxx Race are already impressive, and MPSC-2 are better per AP's comments.

7:18 Nurburgring 991 GT3 RS is looking feasible.
