    Unfortunately, I don't think even a well setup regular GT3 would have enough to match the GT-R on most tracks especially the longer and higher speed one. It would probably take a Cup car, or an GT3 RSR to catch the GT-R. Again, this assumes drivers of equal skill in both cars.

    I did a 1:32 at Road Atlanta with crappy R888 tires. With A6's I am sure that high 20's are achievable.

    At CMP last year for Time Attack, Autometrics brought out their GT3 Cup Car (Raced in Rolex GT) with seqential gearbox. This car was nuts, and being driven by Corey Freidman who is one of the best behind the wheel. He managed a 1:35 at CMP, but granted it was hot as balls that day. But at least it's a comparison.
    Thats some good driving Shariff. That course favors a high HP awd car a lot more than it does a cup car though. I'm sure Corey in a Cup car at Road Atlanta would be different. Good luck with the rest of the season

    No doubt, I am sure the Autometrics GT2 Cup car is capable of mid 1:20's or better at Road Atlanta. Lee Khen did a 1:21 around there in an RSR.
