Default 991 Turbo s launch v 991 gt3 launch

Very close...but I think the gt3 just jumps slightly...but doesn't affect the result

The gt3 comes with the new michellin cup2s ...if the turbo s had the same tyres (I have them on my tts the traction and grip is noticeably improved) the tts advantage would be even greater IMO.

Gt3 jumped quite a bit early. Surprised it didn't explode.

Yeh looked to me like the GT3 got a clear jump. Still very quick though.

I agree but even then the TTS catch up and beat it...

Considering the gt3 left the start a fraction earlier, the outcome was obvious.

Actually it would have been interesting to see the outcome over a 1/4 from a standing start. It (possibly) may not be as dramatic as many may think.

Interesting, yes! Not as dramatic?...perhaps.
But the outcome... no different!

Agree the outcome would be a foregone conclusion. Would still like to see by how much though..
