Auto Motorsport track test .2 Turbo S vs GTR track edition vs R8 V10 plus

First track test of the .2 is out in the German press at Hockenhiem. Despite being the only car on street rubber ( pzero vs Sport Cup2's on the R8, and Dunlops on the GTR ) it laid the smack down .
GTR 550 HP 1:09.9 , R8 610 hp 1:09 , Turbo S 580 HP 1:08.5 .
FYI the new Turbo S matched the Sport auto time of the GT3RS on Sport cup 2's as well . Apparently it's a beast on track , even with street tire's .As expected the acc vs the R8 V10 is very close despite being down 30 hp . Both cars are impressive running a 10.7 with no 1- foot rollout like the US press uses .

1/4 mile ET
GTR 11.3 , R8 10.7 , Turbo S 10.7
0-100 km /hr
GTR 3.2 , R8 2.9 , Turbo S 2.9
0-160km/hr
GTR 7.2 , R8 6.2 , Turbo S 6.3
0-200km/hr
GTR 11.3 , R8 9.5 , Turbo S 9.8
0-220 km/hr
GTR 14.1 , R8 11.7 , Turbo S 11.9
Braking 100-0
GTR 33.2m , R8 32.m , Turbo S 31.9
Final ranking which is odd for the R8 being last , must have not liked something handling wise .
Turbo S 1st
GTR 2nd
R8 v10 plus 3rd

Sick numbers for .2 Turbo S!

I'm also glad that the new R8 bested the GTR on the track. I like the new R8 a lot!
