By the time V-Spec comes I expect the 911 Turbo and other high end variants to get direct injection engines with a nice power boost and PDK to match lower models. Remember the GT-R's main advantage is it's dual clutch transmission. By the way here's the latest take on the V-Spec http://www.skylinegtrclub.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=707&d=1207493701
...another warranty voided
Pretty sloppy driving on the part of the GTR, they obviously weren't out to set any records. The front wheel hop you hear on the Porsche under braking is the reason 911s are never going to win this battle. I'd like to see Nissan pull a "Porsche" and have their own GTR driver set a faster time in a 911 than Porsche themselves have, just to shut them up.
Did anyone else feel like pressing the "X" button on the PS2 controller for the course map?
