Points taken Spear. I would not expect an at speed V8 420hp normally aspirated to keep up with an at speed same V10 507hp more or less regardless of weight (within reason)

This stuff is not just static numbers and single gears, and these owner v- owner videos everyone thinks are so reliable are perhaps...worthless? Single run, non-pros, and this Swedish track meet posts on YouTube like it is gospel (buy our DVD!), complete with debriefing for that tuned 335 video. The 335 dumped the clutch and spun out then talked about upgrades!? Did you hear the same screwball shifting during the M6 v- 997 TT? He botched his shift and barked his tires (did traction control kick in?)! These guys are not pros...they are owners. That is it.

Watch yerself sum good ole drag racin' NHRA style...they talk about shifting when they lose, and the HP is beyond us all.

Gobs of horsepower used ineffectively is simply worthless. That is all I am saying.
