Makes me wonder how they ever got to 7:40 on a stock TT, either they tuned it differently or it was a one off
I can imagine why Porsche wants to differentiate between the different variations (997/997S, TT, GT3, GT2) but why not make the TT behave better handling wise since it is the only AWD besides the C4S
I would have expected better handling from the TT, and even if it would handle better it would still not take away anything from the GT2 or GT3

Still in Sport Auto lap times the CSL is a few seconds faster (4) than the 997TT (same tires).

Can someone tell me the trans of the csl? On the inside vid I don't see shifting.

BMW m3CSL is no match for a 997T or 996T even as Walter drove that at 7.48.
