The 993TT has a huge torque advantage, which makes the 993TT easier to drive fast around town (don't have to rev the snot out of it to go).
Don't get me wrong... I love the GT3 as a real "drivers" car.

On a track the GT3 wins hands down if we are comparing unmodified cars. The GT3 has a better power to weight ratio and a suspension which is much closer to race ready than the 993TT. Torque be damned, the GT3 has higher corner exit speeds which cannot be made up by the torquier turbo. Add PSS9 and a turbo upgrade and the cars are nearly equal.
Best,
