I guess that’s the R32 engine, not liking that. I always thought my R32 was a little lardy…kind of thing. Maybe different on a car weighing 1000kg (compared to 1600kg). There never seem to be any urgency about it…no drama…
No where left to put the shopping
Don’t know how they are doing drive by wire as Emerald doesn’t do that at all.

Nice vid!!!
I must say however, having ridden in a couple of Honda SC S1’s, they do seem to blast by the Porky 997 RS’s MUCH more easily! (Payments in the post please!)
The missed shift sounded… :crazy:
What sort of day was that then,I wonder? Didn’t look like a “test day”, but some of the overtaking was bloody dodgy to say the least, for a trackday.
I agree it did sound a bit flat. Its a mahoooosive engine though. God knows what it weighs
I think you need english lessons mate!!
Rob, lets just say it was interesting to see Audi (5speed) vs Honda SC on the scales the other week !
Merci beaucoup, mon petit ami de Brum.
LOL at Pesky,
Come on then Dave spill the beans???
The heaviest mine has ever weighed in at is 790KG’s. I reckon it could be 760kg’s without too much trouble.

I know - I was “at the bunker” the day after you!
But it’s the same old debate really, which Kingk & Scuffers locked horns on - surely the relevent comparative weights are for complete running cars ie incl induction/plumbing/coolant/driveshafts/oil etc not just different engines & gearboxes?
The builder of these is on PureGT matey

Yep true indeed, but with charged cooled hondas pretty commonplace now the plumbing should be pretty similar - I think a 5 speed Audi would be close on weight if not lighter ?
Of course they’ll never scream like the Hondas
No the audi with its extra 100+BHP will be miles up the road and you wont be able to hear it!!
We’ll hear the bits dropping off as it goes along…until it completely stops after 3 miles!
LOL @ Pesky
Rob, I know you are taking the piss, but if we are stiring the shit, than I think you have broken a lot more gearboxes and drive shafts than I have and you drive like an old fart!!!
Oh, sorry mate, I forgot you are an old fart!!!
