    Was this downhill or with a back wind? For this speed to hold, it would be very helpful if it was also crosschecked at least with GPS device.

    Has anyone measured the difference at these speeds between the speedometer value and a GPS readout? In lower speeds there should be no difference at all.

    I don't have a GT3 but the difference is 2 to 3 Mph on my C2S (not at 200+ mph though )

    Well...if i remember right high speed test of a GT3 at Nardo showed 315Km/h as a top speed so 332 could be the tacho reading at that speed.

    It that is so, it's positive news, since any oval, even a huge one like Nardo, will take off some speed due to tire scrub.

    Guys, relax. The GT3 does "true" 310-312 kph...at best.
    It may add a couple of kph downhill.
    332 kph was the speedo reading and this doesn't mean anything. Take the 997 Turbo: 327 kph speedo reading at "true" 311 kph.

    Yes RC, this is what i meant.
    332 can be the reading of a true 315.
