How does it compare to the GT3? Can you even compare them because they're such different cars?

The GT3 feels like a car the McLaren feel like a spaceship is the best way I can describe it

650S feels flimsy because of the tires, however, even with stock tires it was better and FASTER than GT3. GT3 feels more under controlled. When the 650S has the Trofeo R, probably will be even faster.
1m30 on the 650, 1m32 with the GT3. Both are great cars with different appeal.

You are confused between lightweight and flimsy

I'm still speechless... It feels fast. Bit of a shock to see 260 kph on the speedo so qickly on the straight. We had a great run and caught a 911 (racecar of some class) a GT4 Clubsport and that yellow British Spec race car most regulars know effortlessly.

The 650 is spectacular in every way. And the sound! OMG

Thanks again Jason for letting me enjoy it with you and Nelson. (Hi Nelson) Great to meet you guys!
