Pretty impressive run for .2 RS. Now its obvious why Porsche hasn't really released any to compete against the 2RS in comparos.

Bingo. Zactly.

The .2 3RS is a comparative steal and should be fetching much higher ADMs. Go figure.

Impressive run indeed, but 3RS had R tires. 2RS would have surely beat it with the same rubber. They are all fantastic in their own right.

Yeah, on equal tires the 2RS would no doubt be faster. Though that doesn't necessarily make it the better car.
