Default 2018 6spd Manual GT3 vs. 2018 PDK Turbo S Roll Race

Get your 991.2 GT3 while you still can! These cars are just amazing! And 6spd Manual FTW!!!

After getting to run a multitude of cars today at Omega Motorsports NOFLYZONE, rolling 1/2 Mile races... I couldn't have been more impressed with these cars!

I was able to run against my dads slightly modded Z06 (Stock Tune, with Haltech Cold Air, 2017 Air Lid, and Borla X pipe) as well as my neighbors 2018 Turbo S!. As a bit of a spoiler, the GT3 delivered the highest MPH of the 3! (timeslip below). The Z06 ran consistent 161/162, the Turbo S ran consistent 159/160.

Now the Turbo S, rightfully so... spanked me into submission with it's launch control... so after that whooping he offered to do a couple roll races. The Race below is from a 35 mph role, and you'll see the cars stay identical to 160 mph!

Here's vs. my Dad's Z07/Z06... thought this was a cool angle, seeing the corvette in the reflection of the LWB seats.

Ahh.... remembered the thread claiming the base Carrera was faster than the .2 GT3. "how do ya' like them apples?"
Couldn't resist, sorry

Do you have an accurate weight for your GT3?

Preferrably on corner scales, full of fuel, no driver.

OP when you tried racing the 2018 Turbo S using launch control, did you also use launch control?

Gt3.2 manual as i understood also has launch control

Cool videos. Thanks for posting.
What airport is this at? Do they just close the runway for the day or is it a permanently closed runway?
