    I owned several Porsche GT3 and left them without any regret for a bewitching Italian lover :rolleyes:

    Magny-Cours GP is a relatively fast track (far faster than Magny-Cours Club), so that the power advantage is meaningful - it also explains the 720S outperforming the GT2RS on the F1 track. The Cup2R is also most probably superior to the TrofeoR, so that where it counts (on the shorter track with more corners) the 720S is last; the Senna is on another level so it's still faster in spite of the TrofeoR.

    Interesting:confused:
    AFAIK, there are no commercially available Michelin Cup2R tires for the Pista wheel sizes. Either they are running Pista on some odd wheels or they have acquired some specially made tires from Michelin, which IMO both are very unlikely. So if Pista is running on standart Cup2 tires then that means Pista is actually very fast on track;)

    Wait what!? Me loves my Porsches' too much eh? Too funny. If you recall I was the ONLY one driving their Ferrari while you guys are driving Porsches leaving F cars sitting safe at home wrapped up in cotton wool! Didn't want to get them dirty or any little stones on them! Time to leave old faithful Gt4 at home bro and take that Ferrari or Lambo out next time please. I am trying hard to convert you but I looks to me like someone will firstly have to hide you GT4 keys !:)

    Indeed. I’ve never heard anyone call a GT Porsche soulless, let alone a 2RS.

    Michelin has released a Pista spec Cup 2 R recently.
