wowow! no real surprise there are the GT3 RS is one serious machine. nice post.

 

will have to pick up that issue...evo is a great magazine

 

The BMW M Coupe is a surprise in that group. That's a great showing by that car

 

Seems strange that the article is called the, "Road & Track Car of The Year 2007." How'd that one slip through in evo magazine?

 

Thanks doc911 for re-confirming this ... Yes, the GT3 RS is defiantly the car of the year.
& with such grate results on track, I personally believe it's one of the best Porsche's that were ever built.

 

To bad its not the same GT3RS we get here in the states. Come on Porsche give us the goodies.

 

Lucky I can still switch my GT3 order to the RS!

 

Does anyone else wonder why the Caterham R400 is second when it isn't on any of the first two lists?

I don't doubt that the R400 would of scored that high though, I have owned an R500 and I can tell you that it is a track monster!

 

Blame our government for that, not Porsche.

 

I agree, First thought the article was from the mag R&T

 

You're absolutely right, MarsMan.
Because the two Caterhams were tested in Group 2 that's why you didn't see them. The two lists above are for Group 3.
Here is the results of Lap times (All the 16 cars). It is difficult to put all of the results in the thread. You've got to get the mag. my friend.
Cheers.
