They did not have a Macan S to compare it with at the track. I haven't flogged mine, but the GTS was more buttoned down and faster.
We did lead and follow, two people, driver and passenger in a train of 4 cars, following a Porsche pro in a Macan GTS. On several runs I was driving a 991.2 2CS just behind the pro- not following another 911.
To compare the 991.2 with the Macan GTS: I could not stay with a pro in a Macan GTS when I followed in a Macan GTS, I could easily close on the leader in a 911- people who had no track experience could not.
One other observation- the Cayenne S handles absurdly well on the track, but its weight makes it a bit slower than a Macan GTS even with a ~50HP advantage due to the GTS advantage through the corners onto straights. The GTS was just nuts for an SUV.
