And you know both drivers? Lol. 2RS driver “much worse” ? How so? He ran wide on the same turn twice other than than that he was on the money. Both drivers were flying and passing everything except each other.
Real world evidence of how these two compare on track. 2RS clearly has advantage on long straights and 3RS quicker in the tight turns.
They were both both hitting their marks for the most part to my eyes.
Timer in the the 3RS indicates best lap was 2:39s ~ just like the drivers listed above at Spa yet the driver in the 3RS can’t pass grandma in that 2RS.

Wait...2RS and 3RS have same handling and brakes correct? So for the 2RS to pull bus lengths on the straights and for the 3RS to catch up on the turns and braking, this to you has nothing to do with the drivers skills lol? Just because to your eyes both drivers hit their marks for most part does not mean their braking zone and on throttle is the same. Put pro drivers in each car I would love to see 3RS reel in the 2RS that easily after bus lengths on the straights

Evo Three Kings. Pretty “emperical”.
To my knowledge neither of those guys are pros but appeared to be passing everything in sight. Both running very impressive times.
The lap time comparison posted by Throttle Dogs for the 3RS vs. more powerful cars and very capable track weopns bolsters the proof of the 3RS tremendous track athleticism and the fact it punches way above its weight.
Yup, neither pros, same DE session, same brakes, 3RS advantage handling, 2RS advantage power and there is your result in a real life example. Unless you think you could do better in the 2RS seems like excuse hunting to be plugging in pro drivers at a DE but hey, if it makes you feel better. 😉
Even with pros pros the difference is approx. 1-2 seconds per lap with perfect set ups with a 180 hp deficit to the 3RS. That’s saying something for the NA car with power disadvantage easily neutralized with some driver skill.
Thats what I see. OP saw the same thing which is why he posted the vid.

I’ll tell you what’s not trival. The price differential for trival difference in track performance when the rubber meets the road at DEs as shown.
im not the one searching for excuses and explanations here. Just pointing to what I see.
2RS better hope no 3RS owner does anything to improve handling further than stock. 😎

Please refresh my memory. How many track records does the GT3RS hold now? The GT2RS holds so many now it's hard to keep up with the list, and it's accomplished this impressive record against everything, including hypercars. Here's a little wake up call marker for you. At Laguna Seca, which is not a long, fast track, the GT2RS set a lap time five seconds faster than the GT3RS. Unlike a lot of you guys, I'm not out to denigrate one of the cars, I really like the GT3RS and I respect what it can do with less, but when it comes to the king of the 911's, the GT2RS is it.

Answer: Not the the same handling. Only advantage for 2RS is TT.
