R500 vs 996 GT2 @ Ring

[Hxc]

You should really get on with it and buy another one Housey

the rally car sounds a lot more aggressive than the road car

probably due to having a straight through exhaust with no cats i would have thought.

If only your road car could sound that good.

I am building some business interests at the moment which are taking both my time and finances but next year all being well I plan a GT3 RS.

My old one does now after Spencer who bought it fitted a new specialist exhaust. Sounds just like that one.

Lexus youtube clip
A better V8 sound imo

No no no, this is where it's at:-

Second half not first.

Really wish someone would get a decent recording of the TVR Speed 12. http://www.speed12.info/g9.htm is the best there is and it's from the inside on a home camera

Awesome videos...boy thats some speed the both of them are going at...the R500 seems like it corners very well...much better than the Porsche but straight out speed the Porsche just creams it...its like its just standing still while the 911 flies by it.

Awesome exhaust notes by both cars...that R500 driver is a complete loon...especially the part where hes drifting the car around the corner...at around the 3:50

 

[Spie]

Great videos.

 

[Skii]

R500 clip @ 3:50 - love it

 

[The_Dark_Side]

If you think the R500 driver is mental, visit Caterham and take a test drive with their test driver.
Absolutely insane.

 

[chronic86]

r500 video is awsome!

this beats any other car sound in the world.

So....given both sets of keys to choose from, which would you pick to play with for a day at the 'ring?

Me, I'd take the 500 every single time.
