Porsche Turbo Chief engineer claims 7:18 ring time for Turbo S on standard tires

If true thats a huge jump over the 991.1 Turbo.

I think that would be a big leap over the RS as well.

Ha , if the turbo S did 7:18 on pzeros vs the 7:28 of the M4 GTS on Sport cup 2's then it's no contest . Can't make a value argument for a 150k plus 4 series that is 100% tracked out , I.e would be horrible as a daily driver either lol . And the real price difference after discounts is wayyyyyy less than 50k for a nicely optioned .2 turbo S vs the M4 GTS , I know for a fact .

But the M4 GTS has Water-Injection and can be optioned with Carbon Core Structure wheels, therefore it wins.

All kidding aside, I'm looking forward to future Head to Heads with cars like the 991.2 Turbo S, Lambo Huracan Superleggera, 675LT, and Ferrari 488. It's gonna be a good year.

I don't know man, I think they are all strong contenders. I'm sure the new Superleggera is going to be sick. The base Huracan is already faster than most supercars in it's class.
