We both turn mid to high 2:20s around COTA depending on the weather and traffic, and iirc, mid carousel I’m in the low to mid 80s with an exit around 90 heading up to near 100 before T19. Been a while since I looked at the gages or data.
So use that as an anchor.
Also, that time is a pretty frenetic undertaking, if you know what I mean. He said he matched it like a brisk lap as opposed to hanging it out there.
I have no idea what tires were on the car, and that’s a valid point. I think if they were something special he woulda mentioned it.

It was the Chin event
Kudos on your time, too.

Gt4 / spyder + RS variants are very likely the end of the mid-engined NA ICE breed. IE collectible. Just sayin.

Dang, I hit 152 on the main stretch. I guess I am just being a baby on the carousel...

I think the 992 gt3 comes with a 80TW tire in the good year super sport R vs. the Cup 2 I assume we are talking about on 1.2 GT3 speed through COTA carousel. That said, a 992 gt3 spanked me and other 1.2 GT3s at sonoma last weekend and was significantly faster in high speed sections. 992 GT3 over GT4RS all damn day at the same price point.

I don't think there's any debate on that point. Porsche is masterful at market segmentation, so it's very unlikely that they'll price the GT4RS directly against the GT3. Maybe an optioned to the gills GT4RS will come close to the GT3's base price, but I can't imagine many people are speccing stripper GT3's.

I still think it will be a bit above the mid point between a GT4 and a GT3.....base price

Yep, and with the higher ADMs I’ve heard, it will be close to on level.

I used to really crawl through the carousel until I rode with former Stig Ben Collins. He demonstrated how to send it through there. sideways. one handed. while on the radio to the cars behind. Did I mention Ben can drive?

Same case with my dealer.....what you get on the configurator is what you pay so the only problem is the dealer getting enough allocations and being early on the list....it does help when you have purchased several cars from them.
