7:39 is an excellent result, that is 16 seconds faster than the regular 430 for exactly the same test.
Yes, but at least half of the improvement is due to tires, right?
Still very impressive!

Hahaha, so true The really fast and gifted GT3 amateurs I know (and they represent max. 5% of the GT3-crowd showing up at NoS) clock laptimes 30-40 sec. slower than HvS at best - and that's after hundreds of laps under their belt.
There was a nice "test" recently shown on German TV (DSF): average skilled sportscar driver was given a Maserati GT - first he learned the limits/handling of the car in the safe environment of the NBR GP-circuit, then he was sent to NoS (as a NoS novice).
The offer: if you can clock a laptime of 10 minutes, the car is yours Result: 12ish... Just to put things into perspective

To put things further in perspective on the other end, what is the best time they do during the VLN races? Say the Manthey cars?

Hehehehe, you only want to have confirmation that you bought the right car
The GT2 is a bit faster (7.33 and 1.09,7). However, the Scuderia is probably the more exciting car... Thus, both are great cars

Kreso I guess it depends where you live - where I live a GT2 is perceived as just another 911 (except for the Porschephiles of course), a Ferrari (no matter whether F430 or Scuderia) gets far more attention

+1 most people cannot identify one 911 from the other. so they blend in far more than ferrari or lambo.
the rs6 is understatement, agreed....but it's not a sportscar by any means. the gt2 in my opinion is really the wolf in sheeps clothing.
nobody would ever guess it's a +200k euro car......and i like that.
surely i get more looks in the gt2 than in my turbo. but it has more to do with colour than with anything else. the gt2 being white and the turbo being slate.
