Lots Of Sour Grapes About Performante 6.52 Ring Record

Juno? You were right all along
The heading now becomes very prophetic
My guess looking at it is that they have used the fastest sector times,forget the data because the speed might not be synchronized with the picture. The moving of shadows is more in line with sector times as it could have been done over several hours taking the best bits from multiple laps.The heading now becomes very prophetic

The software I use as above will split the track into multiple sections and at the end of a test I can just add them together at the push of a button to get the fastest theoretical lap of the session.
So in essence if the driver makes a mistake or (hits slower traffic) he doesn't have to do the whole lap again faultlessly to show the ultimate Lap.
Now i do believe a lap should be a lap so if they have tinkered then I'll have my deposit back Lol
No on serious note my car wont go near a track as I don't track any of my road cars I always use the race car,it won't effect the way I use the car on the road and I ordered the car before I knew anything about the Perfas Ring time!
I will ask the questions in Geneva next week,I was told 1-1 that the record was theirs.
At the moment I'm not agreeing either way that they did or didn't do it in one go but its still bloody kick,it appears to hit 304KMH and you would expect the Porsche to be quicker here so there are discrepancies if the data overlay is correct.
The question is not just one of terminal speeds but for how long that speed was held into a braking area!
Lets see what Lamborghini say?
However the Lambo does handle better and looks far more controlled,the Porsche looks more like a ride by the seat of your pants

I've never been to the ring.... tbh probably never will.
Did I find the lap time interesting and impressive, yes.
Do I care if people do not believe it, no.
Will I order one? Already have.
Why waste time trying to convince others you've made the right choice, if that's the car you want, buy it! end of. None of us will know the answer to that question until we park our butt in the seat and take it for a proper spin.
All pretty simple really.
Just my 2p

So excited but also VERY undecided on what colour to go for

Can't believe grown men, who obviously have some decent level of intelligence, well enough to be able afford these types of cars are squabbling of a bloody ring time. Which, to be honest, none of us well ever match unless you are of the off spring of Valentino Balboni or the reincarnation of Ayrton Senna.
Tell you what lads, do I want I do, just get out and bloody drive your car instead of the "my car is faster than yours" bickering on the internet.
Well said. Ring times are utterly irrelevant except (a) to 10 year olds, or (b) people looking to justify themselves down the pub. Tell you what lads, do I want I do, just get out and bloody drive your car instead of the "my car is faster than yours" bickering on the internet.
Just one last thing do you think that the Performante was Quic!!!!!!!! No im just kidding
Juno time soon so if your bored you will have to pop along for a session and see if you've still got it
I'm not taking this too seriously at all and as I've said I won't be putting mine on track anyway! So on that basis I will shortly be flying out to Geneva for a full face to face and really find out what the heck this is all about
Do you think there will be a fastest car round the Ring spec upgrade Lol
Anyway Birmingham first then Geneva !!!
