Car and Driver Lighting Lap, Turbo S beats GT3 RS
#32
Evo's track battle proved the RS and Turbo S to be identical as well.
Not trying to be biased here (I'm actively searching for an RS to buy), but the Turbo S is a track capable supercar. It's a serious machine and it can beat the RS due to trick AWD and way more power.
The RS is also a serious machine that gets outgunned on some tracks the same way it does in GT racing.
There are probably some tracks where an Aventador or Ferrari F12 will beat a Huracan or 488. It doesn't mean anything except they're all extremely high performance vehicles.
Porsche ought to be applauded for building two very different cars with similar performance envelopes.

But like you alluded to, it misses the point. The RS is WAY more thrilling.
