Yeah.. Wow. There is enough money wrapped in cars there to cover a small country's budget for a year. Pure art.

Porsche Motorsports, rare you'll see a regular Porsche enthusiast elaborating on some of their in-house tech (almost unknown isn't it). I really like this Asia and other Pcup series and really hope for Porsche that they'll succeed in their mission - perfecting a true GT car!

As it stands/seems... to me they are nasty piece of kit, they clock faster lap time than my 207hp HRC superbike (-7secs) and I've done a few more than two laps on that circuit :/ Huge time diff... it got to get scary, somewhere loll
