@ Flabernat: I'd like to see Toyota bring back the Supra and give it around 650 horsepower to compete against the Nissan GT/R, that would be awesome!

@robbie yep, fast cars with a heavy rear weight bias like the 911 require lots of respect, and a different technique. The safest way is to use the slow in, fast out style, but that might not always get the fastest lap time (too much push on corner exit). The main thing is "don't lift" mid-corner. I am still working on my cornering technique, and my (new to me) car is merely mid-engined.

The GT2RS is known as "The Widow Maker" amongst Porsche enthusiasts, so that should tell you something about what it's like to drive.

The 7:12(in real 7:14) is the time of the LFA Nürburgring Package.

Lexus LFA Nordschleife 7.12.00 Driven By Lili Fisher Even If You Add it The LFA Would Still Lose.
