Incredible video! What an experience to drive a Turbo on the Texas Motor Speedway.
My immediate reaction was that the smooth, quiet Porsche was leaving the loud cars way behind
What speeds did you achieve on the straights at that big track?

The car hits 140 at the Start/Finish line in the midpoint of the straight, and +/- 160mph at the end of the straight. That is SuperCup car speeds and 25-30 mph more than my 300 hp E36M3, 15--20 mph more than my 380hp 944 turbo

Wow - those are speeds most of us never will see in our cars. Getting on a track that like is the way to go.
Is the Turbo still accelerating well at the 160 mph mark when you have to brake?

After this clip I can't wait to take the TT to the track.
