MKSGR:

 Here are the key results from the Supertest (the turboS was equipped with the aero kit, both cars on Bridgestone, both cars with PCCB, same weight):

NBR-NS: 7.44 vs. 7.47 (both numbers are frustrating...)

HHR: 1.10,9 vs. 1.12,1 (frustrating as well)

Wet handling: 1.37,1 vs. 1.37,4 (bad as well)

Max-speed on Doettinger Höhe: 295kph vs. 288kph

0-200: 10.6s vs. 10.8s

0-100: 3.1s vs. 3.2s

200-0: 134.5m vs. 138.6m

fuel consumption: 15.8l/100km with both cars

 

I really would be interested in the corresponding figures on Cup/Corsa tires. I guess they won't be much different, otherwise Porsche would have sent a corresponding test car.

How did Porsche manage to build a car with such a bad suspension? The test results are really crappy. Even in the latest version of the turbo.

Markus,
 

Both car would be around 5s-8s faster on the Ring with Corsa/Cup tires. This info is direclty from P.

Why SA used normal tires? Porsche wanted to send cars eqiuped with Cup+ as well but, SA wanted to measure the cars with normal tires since 95% of Turbo costumers never track their cars.

If you add 5s to calculation you will get pretty good numbers. Specially in light of competiton-R8 V10, SLS AMG and 458 Italia.

BUT, fact is-SLS AMG is with standard tires faster on the Ring, HHR and wet handling track then Turbo PDK/Turbo S.
