GT4 v 991RS, Silverstone

[Woppum]

I know what I say is a fact.
Sam you've missed the boat sonny 😉

I could have believed you if I hadn't have ripped a whole set of tyres apart round Silverstone recently. Mclarens, speciale's and 991RS's seem stationary in a 918. The 675 will be quick but not that quick...

 

[Woppum]

No it's not that , I actually like the look of them but the gearbox is diabolism in mechanised form

Also steering is totally and utterly dead sor some reason 🙁

Both true... But they look and sound cool. Would just just be for local cruising.

Wait and see, my baby is being built at the moment 🙂
No where to hide in 16 😉.

 

[Woppum]

Don't be a tart and buy a Speciale instead

I'll take that bet , 918 will kill it gp circuit 😏

You'll be floggin that old boat next year Sam, too slow. 🙂

What bets that Baf?
I'll give you a race if you fancy.

 

[Woppum]

It serves it's purpose. May fancy a pop with a 675k at 200k though in the spring 😘

Was my 918 and I was in it. Car was not being pushed so doubt it was fair time.

I know,but it's a fair wind up 😀:

To put that time in perspective, and assuming my memory is not failing me, the quickest I managed in a 997 cup car around the national circuit was 57.7.

He missed the apex at both the maggotts/ becketts complex and Brooklands.

That is a quick car.

Would love to have a go around the national in mine just for comparison. 🙂

mmm Matt Jackson did a 58.4 in a 918 in PBs race. On a warm day think the RS has a faster time it it....

Agree Pete, does not look liked Sutts hooked the lap up

 

[Woppum]

I don't think RS has a chance of beating the 918 around a track D, it's crazy fast and eats tyres for breakfast!

I'm on a diet Baf, I cannot eat as much as you young guns anymore.
Seriously will be great to see all these monsters being thrashed around next year.

mate, you really have to be careful with the pressures...I have stuffed a set round a sprint track.....Those look like they have been in the high 40/early 50s Psis.....They need to be at 31-33, 34, they will sit at that a lot longer, agree the 918 will be faster......

 

[Woppum]

Yes I was going out without playing with my pressures but the car has done almost 6k miles and 2 trackdays, thought that was pretty good for a set tbh!

675 won't be able to hold a torch to a GT4 let alone a 991RS.

Apparently.😀
