SS-III vs ST205 on track Options

[Edophus]

Hi folks thought you might like to see this, some footage thats pretty fun from my last track time, in my ss3 following an st205, my ss3 is fully stripped out with no engine mods, i didnt see the st205 afterwords although i spoke with the owner but never found out what mods he had, but according to my friend who owns an st205 aswell who was there it was running more power than his and he has hks induction/exhaust.

He gets a tiny bit sideways, looked fun

good driving there, gotta say he couldnt of been gunning it very much and wasnt much of a good driver as ive seen gt4's with proper drivers beating porsche 911's round donington and myself keeping up with a tvr cerbera down the dunlop straight so in terms of if he actually drove fast and proper then i dont think he would be so slow.

but cracking driving there, gotta love videos on board! i need to get me a camera suction thingy!! good video!

how do you know the porsche driving wasnt crap lol, why is it this is a gt-four driver must be crap thread? you realise you've just said that a gt-four can beat a 911, and given most 911's are faster than gt-fours thats kinda contradictory.

cant it be that a track prepped ss-3 with coilovers, track tyres, weight reduction including no soundproofing, no aircon, no interior, lightweight seats, harnesses, no stereo etc etc given an equal driver cant beat a stock other than a bit extra power gt-four?? I'm not trying to say one is better than other i just thought it was a pretty cool vid

too true maybe he was, i know for certain he was gunning it though as i was in the car behind for 2 laps till he finally pulled over after not being able to shake us off. lol


yeah i did just say a gtfour could beat a 911..... and after driving a 997 at donington then driving my four at donington, down the dunlop straight there is no difference in speed, and in the 997 i was being taught the track and on my own in the four. im not saying a standard four could hammer a 911 turbo at all, just a fairly well modded four is a leathal track weapon in the right hands and he looked very slow on the straights and bends.


nor me mate, im not saying either is better, just it looked very slow on the gt4's part, its a cracking video and some cracking driving by the driver with the camera, very impressive.
wouldnt mind driving that track either, looked fun!

everycar has potential to be great, and that video shows how quick you can drive a n/a celica in the right hands. im not saying anything bad at all mate.
