"...,the 911 remains the best driver's car."

Great video. I was honestly shocked that the 911 wasn't further behind in the 1/4 mile drag. It goes to show what an incredible 3.8L flat 6 engine can do.

I agree about the Ferrari sound. I can't read the guys from Motor Trend I thought from what they said while driving the cars the Corvette would win hands down. I also thought from what they said driving the cars in the 2013 best drivers car video that the R8 would of won.

Welcome all. Pobst has become a great tester- he knows how to express what he and the car are doing.
