The RS has more downforce . If you taped up the front and took rear wing off it would go faster on a drag strip

Looks like GT3 pulled buy a nose. RS aero probably dragging it down a little.....RS faster in the corners though.

20hp is a 4% gain on the GT3's 500hp. The power of your engine varies by that much on a day to day basis with temperature, pressure, and humidity. Do you really think 20hp will make one car faster than another? Without that 20hp, all the increased drag on the RS will make the car even slower. The RS is for going around a track and having more mechanical and aero grip, not for drag racing.

On a car with 160hp, 20hp will make a bigger difference.

Wider body, larger wing, wider tyres all amounting in a significant amount more drag. The GT3 is faster than the RS in the straights on track for sure but the moment you need to slow down / turn as you say the GT3 falls far behind

Right, essentially no difference which is my point. I would love to see back to back dynos for comparison.

I bet it doesnt fall far behind. Same driver, same tires and conditions I bet they are too close to call.

How many miles on each motor?

Nice job Ricardo! That's about as definitive as it gets, IMO. Perfect runs by both parties. Launching as identically as just about possible. Both cars look and sound tremendous.

So the additional 20HP does essentially nothing? I wonder if in fact these motors aren't identical.
