My FH5 Log - Day One

Congratulations on your first day of playing Forza Horizon 5! As you kick off your Mexican adventure, you have been given keys to your first three cars to drive while taking your first steps toward your goal of becoming the Horizon Mexico Hall of Fame.

Without further ado, let's say hello to the first three cars you'll be driving on your first adventure;


This is the all-new Ford Bronco. Returned after its 1996 discontinuation, the modern take of Ford's legendary offroader brings its pioneer spirit to those who are ready to get themselves dirty. Seen here is the two-door Badlands model with a 2.7L EcoBoost engine with 330HP of power and 415lb-ft of torque while mated to a 10-speed AT.


Next is the Toyota GR Supra, the sportscar most speedo boys love to begin on their first day at Horizon Mexico because of its tuner reputation its A80 predecessor don in the past. Because it's a BMW Z4 underneath, the revived Supra now behaves like a European sportscar, something worth noticing for speedo boys behind the wheel. This BMW-derived Japanese sportscar runs on the same 3.0L BMW TwinPower Turbo engine as the current Z4.


Lastly, for the Patriots, the Chevrolet C8 Corvette Stingray. Now as a mid-engined supercar, the all-new Corvette is capable of taking on the world's best sportscars with its radical styling, futuristic interior, and its newly-built 6.2L LT2 V8 engine mounted in the middle, which produces up to 495HP of power and 470lb-ft of torque, while mated to a double-clutch gearbox for the first time.






A reborn take on the iconic Ford SUV, a revived Supra that is not really a Supra, and a mid-engined Corvette, what an odd trio we have but they sure known to be the ideal choice of starters for those who are starting their Mexican journey on Day One. Whichever starter they begin with, they sure are a lot of fun to enjoy and with that, I got clips of these three starters flexing their muscles on Mexican roads. Let's roll the tapes, esse.





So, which of these three FH5 starter cars is your favorite? Either way, welcome to Mexico, hombre. I hope you have fun driving through Mexican roads the Horizon way. Enjoy!

Forza Horizon 4: Making the Corvette great again!

The Chevrolet Corvette is the ultimate symbol of American freedom since 1953. On the road and on the track, the Corvette has showcased what America is capable of when battling against the best of Europe and Japan.


Through the years, the Corvette has seen numerous evolutions with the seventh-generation Corvette served as the biggest turning point in its history for being the last front-engined, rear-wheel drive Corvette ever made. With the eighth-generation Corvette, America's sports car gained the most radical evolution ever witnessed.


The C8 Corvette marks a radical beginning in the Corvette's over six-decade history because, for the first time, it's mid-engined. While purists called the transition treason to the Corvette heritage, the people behind the development called it a fulfillment of the dream envisioned by a certain expert who tried creating mid-engined prototypes for General Motors. It's armed with the newly-built 6.2L LT2 V8 engine mounted in the middle, which produces up to 495HP of power and 470lb-ft of torque, while mated to a double-clutch gearbox for the first time.



I won this car from the recent Horizon Series 31 Summer Playlist and since I'm familiar with the mid-engined Corvette Stingray (I tried one from another game, you know), I'm getting used to its newfound behavior this C8 Corvette possesses ever since its transition to a mid-engine layout. It's about as advanced, as dynamic, and as enjoyable to drive as, let's say, a Ferrari F430 and looks like Chevrolet's on the roll for making the Corvette great again, whatever that is.


To see how much the C8 Corvette evolved, let's take it to the streets of Edinburgh as it deals against the world's best sportscars just to show them how capable this new version is. Roll the tape.


Even with new tech and layout, it's still as old school as any American muscle can be.


The mid-engine C8 Corvette is no longer a muscle car from the past and has evolved into a supercar that takes on the world's best machines. Clichés aside, the new Corvette is proof of American greatness that can't be denied, and guess what, they've made the Corvette great again! Well, that's not a nice way to say it but well done about that. This is by no means the best Corvette I have ever experienced and that is the bottom line.

Enjoy your new ride!

Project CARS 3: The heroes of the game

The Mercedes-AMG GT R, the Acura NSX, and the Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray are the stars of Project CARS 3 and these machines deserve the respect it needs because these cars truly defined what makes Project CARS 3 great.


Without further ado, let's get to know more about the heroes of Project CARS 3.

First off is the Acura NSX, known as the Honda NSX in the rest of the globe. Ever since Honda revived the NSX after its 2005 discontinuation, the world rejoiced and by many surprises, the modern-day NSX shares nothing in common with the old NSX, although it retains the midship engine layout from its predecessor. Although Japanese in spirit, it was built in the USA, and powering it is a revolutionary Sport Hybrid SH-AWD where the 3.5L V6 DOHC Twin Turbo engine is connected to three electric motors that take care of the Power Drive Unit and a li-ion battery that takes charge on the Intelligent Power Unit, resulting to a total power output of 581PS of power. In its updated version, the NSX features refined chassis components, tires, and software tuning to make it more engaging than before.

Next is the Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray. For the first time in Corvette history, the eighth-generation model is now a mid-engined sports car, which most purists call sacrilege. Matching the best of Europe in terms of performance, the mid-engined C8 Corvette is powered by an all-new 6.2L LT2 V8 engine, producing up to 495HP of power and 470lb-ft of torque, while mated to a Corvette-first double-clutch gearbox. With the Z51 Performance Package, the C8 Corvette is armed with Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 which reads the road every millisecond and adapts in about 10 to 15 milliseconds.


Lastly, the Mercedes-AMG GT R. Served as the high-performance version of the AMG GT sports car, it's powered by a specifically-tuned version of the AMG 4.0L V8 BiTurbo engine that produces 585HP of power and 700Nm of torque while mated to a 7-speed AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT. It does 0-100kph in 3.6 seconds and has a top speed of 318kph. In the recent update, the AMG GT R was made even better with the special PRO variant with improved suspension, lightweight construction, aerodynamics, and appearance.




Now that we get to know about the three hero cars, it's time to find out which of the three PC3 hero cars is the best and with that, it's time to conduct my little experiment at a Tuscan vineyard, which was displayed on the game's official key visual.

Let the experiment begin.


After a quick lap around the vineyard, here are the results;

Corvette - 1:19.593
NSX - 1:18.168
AMG GT R - 1:18.893

The mid-engined, four-wheel drive, hybrid-powered NSX emerged is the winner of this experiment and as a result, this is the best of the three PC3 hero cars. Score another one for the Japanese carmakers.

There is a clear reason why the NSX, the C8 Corvette, and the AMG GT R are the hero cars of Project CARS 3 because these three cars represent the world of motorsports we live in. The NSX represents Asia, the Corvette represents America, and the AMG GT R represents Europe, therefore Project CARS 3 features the world's best cars and racetracks for everyone to take on.

This is the brave new world of motorsport we live in and only the fastest will come out on top.

Good luck and welcome to the world of Project CARS 3.

Chevrolet Corvette C8

The Chevrolet Corvette is known to be an American icon because it's the sports car that ultimately symbolizes American freedom like soybeans harvested from American farmlands or shale oil drilled from American wildlife. It's the icon that put America in the world of sports cars that are heavily dominated by the Europeans and as times changed, Chevrolet made a radical approach to their new generation Corvette and for this new model, it's no longer your Grandpa's Corvette anymore because it's now a bit more different than the Corvettes of yesteryears.

2020 Chevrolet Corvette
That's because the all-new, eighth-generation Corvette, priced at 58,900 US Dollars plus additional costs, is now mid-engined and I know most Corvette purists know that making the Corvette mid-engine is a sacrilege and treason to its heritage but there is one very good reason why they made it mid-engined; fulfilling the dream envisioned by a certain expert who tried creating mid-engined prototypes for General Motors. Decades of hard work have resulted in the rise of General Motors' first mid-engined production car, which is the C8 Corvette, of course.

2020 Chevrolet Corvette

But before explaining more about its new mid-engined proportions, let's observe the design first and by the looks of it, the new model is a bit like a mash-up between the Ferrari F430's front, the side view of the previous Corvette, and the rear view of the Chevrolet Corvette, giving it a more Frankenstein approach to the new model but despite that, I think it looks fantastic at all angles and the design is one of the many reasons the folks behind the new model wanted to make the Corvette great again, whatever that means.

2020 Chevrolet Corvette interior
2020 Chevrolet Corvette interior

On the interior, the new Corvette features a more spaceship-like approach and once inside, you feel like you're in control of some futuristic fighter ready for take-off. Although radical, the futuristic interior really shows its cool toys to play with such as the vertical climate controls mounted on the side that separates you and the driver, the ultra-thin air vents, the race-inspired steering wheel, the Performance Data Recorder, Bluetooth connectivity, 4G LTE, and more. Aside from that, the Corvette offers three different kinds of seats to choose from ranging from the basic GT1 seats to the high-end Competition Sport seats.

In its normal, hard-top guise, you can really take the roof off manually by getting out of the car, detaching its roof, and placing it on the trunk, which is now on the front in case you're forgetting something. But in the Convertible, you can close or open its first-ever retractable hardtop at the push of the button even while traveling at 30mph, simple as that.

2020 Chevrolet Corvette
Now we get to talk about the new model's midship conundrum and why it matters. Achieving the reality envisioned by the late Zora Arkus-Duntov, the father of the Corvette, the new mid-engine layout delivers rear weight bias and improved downforce because the windshield is now over the front wheels. Simple as that.

When you toy around with it, you will have the lasting impression of why the new Corvette, thanks to its mid-engine layout, behaves like a Ferrari F430 on so many levels, and because of its newly found dynamics, it's worth coming back for more even though it's more challenging and more dynamic to handle than the old one. You can really get hooked on this car all year long until you are fully satisfied with it and there's no turning back now once driven.

Powering the new Corvette is an all-new 6.2L LT2 V8 engine mounted in the middle, which produces up to 495HP of power and 470lb-ft of torque. In Stingray form, that is the most powerful engine ever made in this variant, and mating to this all-American V8 tour de force is a double-clutch gearbox, which is great but utterly dramatic of course.

For Z51 Performance Package variants, the Corvette comes with the brand new Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 which reads the road every millisecond and adapts in about 10 to 15 milliseconds. Couple that with the Driver Mode Selector and the result is a very intelligent sportscar that adapts to every road condition like a supercomputer. It can be comfortable in the city streets or downright dynamic on the track, this is how the new C8 Corvette rolls.

As I was saying, the new C8 Corvette Stingray starts at 58,900 US Dollars plus additional costs and it is available in both Coupe and Convertible. Like the Ford Mustang, the new C8 Corvette, for the first time, can be configured to RHD specifications, meaning its official distributors from Japan, the UK, and Australia are more than happy to sell one.

So, what can I say about the C8 Corvette? While it's treason to the Corvette history, as purists feared, because of its mid-engine layout, it's by far the best sports car ever to come out from America and those behind it sure know how to make a Corvette great again, whatever the reason.

Welcome to the new world order.

Forza Horizon 4: Solid Burning Rhodonite

When the seventh-generation Chevrolet Corvette unleashed to the world in 2013, it shook the world with its newfound performance that makes it the best sportscar ever to come out from the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave. With its Nurburgring-honed dynamics, roaring V8 engine, and cutting-edge technology, the Corvette has evolved into a love-it-or-hate-it sportscar that had everyone talking.



The seventh-generation is now hailed as the ultimate Corvette ever made and as the era of a front-engine Corvette comes to an imminent end, Chevrolet gave this generation a much-needed happy ending it needs; the C7 ZR1.



The ZR1 marks as the C7 Corvette's finishing blow and what better way to say farewell to the era of the front-engined, rear-wheel drive Corvette is by unleashing the most powerful and fastest Corvette ever made.

The 6.2L LT5 V8 engine pumps out a monstrous 755HP of power and 715lb-ft of torque and comes with the biggest supercharge to date, delivering peak boost pressure of 13psi and 52% larger displacement than the LT4 supercharger. The engine comes with the new dual fuel injection system which uses a port fuel rail and injections in addition to the Direct Injection system, and top it all off, it comes with a dry-sump oil system, where oil is pumped to the engine from a 9.8 quart-capacity tank within the engine bay to make sure it never goes to its critical levels.

With this engine mated to the available 8-speed AT, it has a top speed of 212mph, making it the fastest Corvette ever made. Apart from the speed it delivers, the available ZTK Track Performance Package, the specially-tuned suspension, and the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 summer-only tires, as well as its Magnetic Selective Ride Control made the C7 ZR1 a track weapon on its own will.



A Corvette that packs more power than your normal Dodge Challenger Hellcat and some aggressive dynamics, that really is a recipe for madness enough to upset Godzilla and King Kong but not enough to intimidate its chief rival, the old 991.2 -spec Porsche 911 GT2 RS. While this car packs more power than the ultimate 911 I've mentioned, the 911 GT2 RS is lighter than the ZR1 and would you like to know how fast did this ultimate Vette went through the Ring? Well, we can't because Chevrolet never said how fast it went through the Ring but never mind about that because in my impression, it seems that the dynamic character the C7 ZR1 possesses is too much to bear and in the game of cat-and-mouse, you can really feel how intimidating its handling may be but as you got the hang of it, the C7 ZR1 really is a prized weapon that can blow nearby rivals like a pump-action shotgun.

Speaking of shotgun, it's time to ride shotgun with the C7 ZR1 to see if this is the parting gift for the Corvette enthusiasts since this marks the imminent end of the front-engined Corvette era. But first...





Of course, this is more than enough to shed some tears for someone who remembered the moment a certain member of a girls band announced her departure and in her last show, she named her replacement to take over her role.



Anyway, tear-jerking aside, it's time to give the C7 ZR1 a much-needed send-off to the era that made the Corvette great. Roll the tape.





The Corvette C7 ZR1 showed me that it really is the best send-off to the era that made the Corvette great and although I wanted to call it a day after a much-needed tribute to the ultimate Corvette, looks like it wants to strum its bass some more as I now head to Fortune Island for one more try.



The C7 Corvette pushed the envelope on what America's best sportscar should be and as its era came to a bittersweet end, rest assured that the ZR1 tried so hard to deliver the happy ending it needed and it did, sort of. We're going to miss this great era of what made Corvettes great and I'm glad I'm part of its climax.



It's an honor to meet with you, America's best sportscar. You served your role very well to the end. Thank you very much and we'll see you on the other side.

Forza Motorsport 7: Indy Jaws

Having Indy hangovers, I went back to the racing capital of the world, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and drive cars that possess the same potential as IndyCars of today. From Chevrolet side, I summoned the Corvette Z06, and on Honda/Acura side, I summoned the NSX. Both these sportscars possess some motorsport pedigree it delivers and while these cars are a direct representation of the past and the present, well, that's what I'm here to find out.



I am already familiar with the Corvette C7 Z06 since me and the car first met with some untapped impressions that got me away with it. Although it's now a middle child of the range, its supercharged V8 engine is too much to ignore as well as C7.R-inspired aerodynamics, making it a race car built for the road and track, a best for both worlds. True to my experience, the Corvette C7 Z06 is the kind of car you won't get out until you're fully satisfied with its performance but even if you're happy with it, you still want to keep driving with this Corvette for more.



As a representation of today's world, the NSX hybrid supercar is a very clever masterpiece that shouldn't be overlooked upon. Although it's not as fast as its Euro rivals but such performance and intelligence really made this hybrid worth enjoyable to drive non-stop and while this is all's fair in love and war, the NSX is all about shuffling drivers with its own whim of stroke. Like the original, the NSX really is the king of Hondas, leaving the Civic Type R its own prince and such hierarchy is what made Honda a favorite among speedo boys worldwide.





Chevrolet and Honda have always been longtime rivals in the world of IndyCar, the two opposite sides of the same coin, a little reminiscent of the time the Japanese blown Pearl Harbor and start the war and ended with the Americans dropped a big bomb to Hiroshima. With its road-going equivalents deployed, the American-Japanese rivalry rages on the track and like all good IndyCar drivers, it's not just about impressing their bosses after the race, it's about how good a Chevy or Honda-powered one can do and for the Corvette and the NSX, we're now on a different kind of ballgame.

Ball game aside, it's time to see with the help of these road-going equivalents, it's time to see how the rivalry between Chevrolet and Honda payed off with a quick lap round the GP portion of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Time to show the world how these cars can do and which one packs the hardest bite out of their Indy jaws.



With their laps done, it's time to see the results...

C7 Z06 - 1:35.064
NSX NC1 - 1:35.831

By such result, seems that the gap between the past and the present are a .8 of a second apart and because this is an American motorsport, Chevrolet packs the biggest bite than Honda. Homegrown advantage, huh? I'm not surprised by this. I mean come on, this new NSX is made in the USA but in the end, the American has beaten the Asian-American by such margin. Man, I'm going to be in a lot of trouble for this.




The Corvette and the NSX are representatives of longtime rivals in the world of IndyCar and no matter the result, this different kind of American-Japanese war will go on and with a plethora of world-class drivers in store, choosing the side between the Americans and the Japanese is all about playing Game of the Generals.

Of course, I still had my Indy hangovers after this run but like all good heroes and icons, I'll be back and looks like I'll be bringing my snacks for the biggest race ever to happened in the final week of this month. Are you excited for Indy 500? Me too.

Chevrolet Corvette C7 ZR1

When Chevrolet introduced the C7 Corvette to the world five years ago, the world braced themselves for a Corvette unlike any other, well except for a few people like me due to numerous reasons that led me to my deep-rooted hatred for this Corvette but tensions have been toned down when they gave us the powerful Z06 which has the nooks and crannies of a C7.R racer and the Grand Sport which is known to be a Porsche 911 GT3 edited for rednecks. Having been on the road for five years, the C7 Corvette has reached its final form the world will brace; the C7 ZR1. It's the C7 Corvette that says "let's finish this, you and I!"

2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Convertible

The ZR1 has returned as the finishing blow by the C7 Corvette and when I said "finishing blow", it really is because with rumors circulating around the block that their replacement will be mid-engined just like a Ferrari 488, rest assured that the final chapter of the seventh-generation Corvette will write a happy ending with a savage spin-out and a coup d'grace this ultimate Corvette will deliver.

Like the lesser Z06, the ZR1's design is heavily inspired by the C7.R racing machine but because this is the ultimate Corvette ever made, the intimidating exterior design will really alarm the Europeans knowing that it's already high noon. Get it? On the inside, it still feels like every Corvette in this generation and with the special race-inspired Competition seats, this interior feels like you're driving a race car even though you're driving on the streets of Los Angeles in the night time.

Anyway, let's not gawk down the looks because the forte of the C7 ZR1 is the performance and we begin with the aerodynamics that tries to flex its American muscles. First, the wing, it offers 20% less drag than the adjustable high wing from the ZTK Track Performance Package but it you went for it, it delivers 60% more downforce than the Z06 with Z07 Performance Package. For the first time in a Corvette, the ZR1 has race car-inspired underwing technology for better downforce and for cooling measures, the ZR1 comes with five additional radiators, power steering cooler, differential oil cooler, and the transmission cooling module from the Z06, as well as four new outboard radiators and a new front low temperature radiator to cool down the monstrous 6.2L LT5 supercharged V8 engine.

This V8 in question generates a monstrous 755HP of power and 715lb-ft of torque and comes with the biggest supercharge to date, delivering peak boost pressure of 13psi and 52% larger displacement than the LT4 supercharger. For the first time in a Chevrolet, it comes with the new dual fuel injection system which uses a port fuel rail and injections in addition to the Direct Injection system, and top it all off, it comes with dry-sump oil system, where oil is pumped to the engine from a 9.8 quart-capacity tank within the engine bay to make sure it never goes to its critical areas when you drive like a maniac. With this engine mated to the available 8-speed AT, it has a top speed of 212mph, which is as fast as a Ferrari 812 Superfast! Now that's supercar territory!

Of course, while speedo boys are not fans of fakey exhaust notes, this four-mode exhaust system maybe made for show and tell but it can be downright crazy to listen to four sound profiles from Track, Sport, Tour, and for the sneaky folks, Stealth. They've added a Stealth mode on the exhaust! But no, this is not stealth camouflage, sorry.

Anyway, back to the ZR1's inside story, let's look closely on the tires and on a normal ZR1, the Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires really works with its dynamic character it possesses but for the ZTK Track Performance Package, the specially-tuned suspension and the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 summer-only tires really means business on the track, especially on a hot lap round America's best race tracks such as Laguna Seca, Sebring, or Daytona. As for stopping power, it comes with front 15.5-inch rotors with 6-piston calipers, rear 15.3-inch rotors with 4-piston calipers, and high-performance Brembo carbon ceramic brakes for a stopping power equivalent of a tectonic rage. Also, it comes with 4-wheel antilock brakes so when you brake approach the corner, it goes smoothly as planned.

Then, there's the chassis and as always, it comes with Magnetic Selective Ride Control which adapts to the road in less than 15 milliseconds, delivering the drivers the feel of a supercar and along with the Performance Traction Management and Electronic Limited-Slip Differential, the ZR1 can be somewhat challenging but rewarding if you want to drive it as long as you want until the sun sets.

So, now that almost everything you want to know about the ZR1 has been told, better get the checkbooks ready because the price can be downright upsetting for a supercar of this size. It's 121,000 US Dollars. That pricing will make you think you want one but the next day, you're regretting it just like Sarah Palin. Get it? Even the convertible version suffers the same issue as well but anyway, there's no time to talk sissy because the C7 Corvette, in its dying moments, is becoming one of the all-time greats and this ZR1 marks the happiest ending in this generation and with cars like the Porsche 911 GT2 RS set the fastest Nurburgring record for production cars, looks like the ZR1 is up for the challenge but in the meantime, potential drivers will etch some memories with this C7 ZR1 from start to finish. If I'm going for it, I want to savor the last moments in the world with the ultimate Corvette ever made. Consider it a happy ending.

Available Colors: Sebring Orange, Long Beach Red Tintcoat, Watkins Glen Metallic, Ceramic Matrix Gray Metallic, Arctic White, Blade Silver Metallic, Black, Corvette Racing Yellow Tintcoat, Torch Red, and Admiral Blue Metallic.

Forza Motorsport 7: Continental Crush

Continuing on getting to know about Forza Motorsport 7's hero car, the all-new 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS, it's time to see if the new king of the Ring takes on the world's best sports cars.



Here I am in Yas Marina Circuit, which is located at Abu Dhabi's Yas Island, where the Porsche's new hero car is ready to take on the world's greatest heroes representing parts of the world. In the American side, there's the Chevrolet Corvette C7 Z06, and in the Asian side, the Nissan GT-R.





It's great to gather three of the world's best sportscars for an epic clash of the titans right here in the land of the supercars and because Yas Marina is the ideal venue to settle the scores between the world's greatest hero cars, I think I'm onto something here but first, let's get to understand these two machines.

When I first encountered the seventh-generation Corvette, I always hated it for political reasons but hey, as the C7 Corvette continues to expand in different configurations, I'm starting to become a fan of this generation. In fact, my favorite C7 Corvette variant, the one that won my heart, is the Z06. With bits and bobs inspired from the C7.R racing machine as well as its supercharged V8 engine that makes it the most powerful Corvette ever made, it's no wonder the Z06 transformed the Corvette from a muscle car into a half-decent supercar that can slap the faces of every European it come across with. It may still scary to drive like most rear-wheel drive cars, it maybe as harsh as a Ferrari, and it can be very tricky to recover, but by having fun, this kind of Corvette can really enslave the driver by making it drive some more and that is why it became my favorite variant of this generation.

The R35 Nissan GT-R has been with us for ten years now and with this latest version, I'm starting to think that age hasn't slow Godzilla down to its last breath and when you think about it, it's starting to lose all that inner monster as it ages. In fact, the once invincible machine has became vulnerable of getting beaten up by more modern machines, even electrics, and favorability aside, it's starting to wane off so quickly. Aging aside, I still appreciate this machine because even though it's getting older and older, it's still trying very hard to become the ideal supercar for all drivers until the day comes it undergoes metamorphosis. Infinite metamorphosis, of course.







Anyway, this is no time to be sentimental with these machines because it's time to settle these three automotive titans in the biggest clash of all. The battle between the three sportscar titans will decide which is the Supreme One of today's era. It's time to decide who flies or falls from grace. Ready? It's on, ladies and gentlemen!



And now, the results are in.

GT2 RS - 2:29.267
Z06 - 2:33.872
GT-R - 2:37.796



It turns out that Germany has trumped Japan and America when it comes to create the most track-capable sportscars on the planet and because the 911 GT2 RS is the King of the Ring, it beats just about everything the world throws at it. Big or small, if its on the 911 GT2 RS's crosshairs, it's going to destroy everything in sight and I have to congratulate Porsche for a job well done to create a new class of track-focused sportscars and as a reward for their job well done...





I hereby appoint you, the 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS, to be my noble knight for my everyday adventures on the world's best racetracks. Well, I guess that's it but you get the point.
