You need to drop down to the next gear in the right rev range also, so it can pay to exceed the revs past peak power so that you drop into the next gear in the right band.

For the life of me, I can’t fathom why some are persisting that the .1GT3 can match a .2GT3...it can’t. I ran vs a .2GT3 at Road Atlanta 3 weeks ago (Int. Advanced group) and on the back straight, the .2GT3 pulled on me to the tune of about 3 car lengths before the heavy braking zone (T-10a). That 4.0l 500HP motor is no joke. Get over it, stock for stock, the .2 GT3 beats a .1 GT3, no question. The low-end torque advantage is readily apparent and it doesn’t stop pulling...more and more videos will confirm this.

I am so over the straight line performance of cars. Was obsessed with it a while back, but no more. Can care less about bragging rights as there is always something more powerful or better.
Never felt my late .1 GT3 lacked power. As a matter of fact, I thought it was already way to fast for me at the track. I moved to the .2 for the MT and the new 4.0 engine. At this point, would like to think about and invest on my driving skills than how fast the car can go in a straight line. I'd rather improve as a driver than obsess wether "my car can pull 3 cars lengths on yours."

Relax man not all of us here have had the opportunity to run our cars against the updated version. There is no doubt .2 will be faster, however we are trying to figure how much faster on the street. The discussion is about the video originally posted as it seemed the .2 driver jumped all the races.

They are all great cars..The back straight is not really what I would call "straight line". Its on the the "straight" of tracks which is where all time is made up, in large part because of exit speed in addition to HP. WOW I can't wait to get her out on the track. VIR/Road Atlanta coming up in early April Man this winter is sooooo long.

LOL, pull up and rev your engine as much as you want, but I will never race you at the stop light. I recommend you do not either, seriously! Go to the track and get it out of your system.

Here’s my take, our .1GT3 is still an amazing car! The only cars I gave point-byes to where one C7 ‘vette on slicks (650HP), a well driven GT4 Clubsport, the .2GT3 and a 997 Cup (during the infamous Chin ‘Happy Hour’). My point is simply that the .1GT3 has nothing to be apologetic for, it rocks, but the .2GT3 is faster. Plain and simple. For the record, if you think adjusting for the ‘jump’ in the video would have made a lick of difference in the eventual outcome of the race between the .1 vs .2 then you were watching a different video!
