How does 127mph in 10secs compare ??

[peeler]

As the title how does 127mph in 10 seconds compare, this video seems to show the GT3 hitting it

In the comments someone times the 0-160 kph at 9.61 seconds ,the 991.2 gt3 time is 10.6 seconds from what I can find .

A full second faster, that should cool the 991.2 GT3 prices.

Looks great in that green.

Probably a re-post but can't stop watching it

I did have a look but couldn’t find any times

A second will be amazing and hopefully will find a few people with egg of their face after the negative slating given to the 992 over its so called lack of performance gain,

I’ve watched it........... a few times too. Can’t wait for Tuesday for the reviews

[CocoUK]

Definitely required another thread...

[MeisterH]

Also looking forward to the reviews and drives!

Having owned all the last few years with of GT cars the revs at idle 110% sounds quieter than the previous 991 GT3, I have already decided to put an JCR end pipe on just to hear that little bit more!

Nothing in the speed between the .2 and 992 0-200 pdk, same engine same weight , why should there be.





Put the stop watch on the 992 in vid

Just depends on how good you get off the line in these vids in launch.

Vid from above pics , launch wasn’t good at all.

No doubt the 992 is going to be exceptional and cannot wait for the reviews.
Very disappointing that it’s not coming with tyres it was tested on as Mitchelin state they are .5 seconds quicker per kilometre than the Cup2.

If I was a betting man I’d say you own a 911.2

Makes no difference to me, I am on the list but dont expect to get one in the foreseeable .Do the timeings when the wheels grip.

I’m not that fused tbh and have better things to be doing than getting my stopwatch out whilst watching YouTube videos plus I would imagine it would be extremely hard to get a accurate time from. It is what it is, if it follows in the footsteps of the 991.2 it’ll be amazing anything more is a bonus IMO

I just reposted from another forum as I actually didn’t know if it was a good time or not, I’ve never been into straight line times.

It will be a belter, P dont go backwards.Am disappointed that you cannot buy these Cup R tyres, well not N rated.
When is yours landing?, there was a belter of a GT4 PDK on the pier this morning , think that must be the first for over here.

Did you go for the Carbon Roof?

[throt]

The plus on the 992 is the 21's on the rear

Should be able to see it stance wise.

Just aesthetics, but all important.

fastest laps have the 991 times.
TBH though unless done on the same day with same driver etc they have limited meaning.

I agree about the tyres but by all accounts they wouldn’t last very long. I think a PDK GT4 will be awesome, I know the GT4 got a skating for the long 2nd gear but I didn’t find it a issue and the car had plenty of low down grunt.

Mine is meant to arrive on the 10th June, to say I’m excited is a understatement !! Yes I’ve gone carbon roof for looks as I know it’s only weight saving of a dump ! The option of a carbon roof is what made me choose Guards red as I think the carbon and black bits will look well against it, I’ve had a couple of Red cars with black/carbon bits and really liked them, the wheels are the gold colour but seem to look a different shade in every picture, if they don’t suit the car I’ll go black, also gone club sport for my car that was built for the track

I agree, but always good as a guide and pub talk

If you are going for the carbon roof (I agree it will look great with red), are you also going for the Carbon mirrors to match or where they not available on the early cars? Maybe an upgrade for the future?!

If it was just for pub talk, you'd be needing a Turbo rather than a GT3, they're nearly 1.5 seconds faster to 200 kph. The GT3 isn't a fast car off the line by modern standards, it's special DNA is in the handling and that will be the mark-or-break measure for the 992 GT3 IMHO.
