There is a NOTICABLE difference from the 1250 to the 1550 setting.

Surprisingly, YES.

1000whp = Light Speed
1250whp = Ridiculous Speed
1550whp = Ludicrous Speed
1700+whp = Plaid

1550WHP is ludicrous until you get spanked by a 1250 WHP GTR!

Sorry, I could not resist!

Please don't derail another thread with your BS. GTR and the Gallardos are very close when BOTH cars hooked up "with no traction issues". Here is both the GTR and the Gallardo at 1500 whp+ and both hooked up.

I have not personally seen these race head to head but they clearly are pretty close and the TTG owner better be on his game so the Video Gamish GT-R doesnt outshift him by itself. Both are very admirable and amazing platforms !

OT:
"300",

With all due respect, you have very high technical knowledge. Having said that what cars have you owned that will outperform the above cars in the video ?
If not, then what cars have you driven that were of supercar performance ?

No, the 2013 has a 7 speed DSG available. You can order one now.

rn3037 is infamous around these parts
There is a lot of drama in most lesser stature RWD cars at 1000+whp. The TTG is just an insane platform for this power level.

You still don't get it. It's called racing. Us grown ups do it in the real world not on a flat screen in our parents basement. Sometimes the faster car doesn't win. Sometimes the other car is the faster car. We give props to the winner and move on.

R8.

I didn't think the Gallardo has the S-tronic DSG yet.
