The GTR was easily the fastest car for the least money in that bunch.

Of course, when he used launch control he voided his warranty!

Video is not working for me for some reason. I would think the 911 turbo would quickest though. I just read the new C&D where they tested a turbo against a Zr1 and the 911's straight line performance was just crazy. 0-60 in 2.9 sec and 11 flat @ 128 in the 1/4. AWD and PDK together is a devastating combo. Too bad the Zr1 was faster around Laguna

Whoever drove the m3 was terrible, period!

I loved the M5 tho, wow

I personally thought the 2nd run in the 997 was almost perfect didn't seem that slow

Adam, try this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAZFbsmcB-o

None of these guys have been trained in how to drive. I bet a skilled experienced driver could shave at least a half a second off most of those cars' numbers.

They're all ультра богато (ultra rich) Russians out playing with their toys.

BTW, 2.9 seconds to sixty would be plenty fast enough for me. My 550i does it in 5 seconds and that's actually kinda scary considering the high center of gravity and the sheer weight of the car compared to a Porsche.
