Don't mess with the Carrera GT!

A legendary Porsche meeting the fastest 911 ever at Nürburgring means just one thing.. race! The Porsche Carrera GT is still one of the best Porsches ever made and has similar numbers, compared to the Porsche 911 GT2 RS (612hp the V10 of the GT, 620hp the flat-six of the RS), they have something else in common, they're two difficult cars to drive, the GT is a real beast to tame!

Start to see the video from minute 27:00, that's where the GT meets the RS and the battle begins, until the driver of the GT2 RS reaches his limits and spins out, but with a huge luck he doesn't crashes into the barriers which happens most of the times if you crash at the Green Hell since the guard rail is just a meter far from the tarmac of the track.

And the lesson of today is: don't ever try to keep up a Carrera GT, just turn down the window and enjoy that heck of a V10 sound!

  1. I believe the Carerra GT has a different suspension which is better suited for racing..

    Also, another car that touches the green and spins out;>

  3. This guy in the GT2RS is a useless driver, he clearly has no clue what he is doing. The GT2RS with a good driver is definitely faster around the Nurburgring than the Carrera GT. The official lap times speak for themselves and then you have 1 or 2 unofficial times of certain drivers taking the GT2RS down at around the 7:16 mark.
