Car must be making minimum 500hp!! I trust Sabine as she is a true driver and has done thousands of laps around the ring! I was lucky enough to drive with her and she is off the hook talented and nice!

Great Video! Wasn't Sabine on top gear trying to do Nurburgring in a delivery truck in under 10 min? Impressive driving indeed.

Well, that was such a tease... I thought it was an actual comparo between the two cars not just a drag race. Looking forward to see what she thinks driving them back to back.

"This is like the GT3 R", she says as she tosses the thing around. Yum!

I love it. I know you do not buy a GT3 for straight line performance but with the 991 you can finally run with the big dogs North and South

It's interesting that she mentioned the 24hp advantage for the 991 GT3 over the 997 RS. She could also have mentioned that the RS has about a 140lb weight advantage over the GT3, IIRC.

It would still beat a 4.0 in the quarter mile, easily. The 991GT3 has run 11.2 in the quarter at 125-126mph by several people now. Even the 4.0 is far off from that.
