In other words, neither car is stock.

Not that a center bypass adds anything. But if you believe what the vendors claim, they do lol.
Either way, good video. Thanks!

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

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.

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.

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