Ferrari 265 - Porsche 328

Hmm, it looks like in this particular case Modena is faster on the tracks, Turbo got defeated 4 times out of 7.
Interestingly, that Ferrari was faster on tracks outside of Europe, and Porsche was faster at Sport Auto tracks (which is not surprising), as well as on the Vairano track, which is very tight and known to be more suitable for AWD.
At the straight however Turbo is faster, no competition.
