Road tests The Official Car Lap Times Thread - Supertest Results / Acceleration / Track Battles etc...


Just one thing I want to add : It's about how weak these specific 992.1 Turbo S figures are. 6.2s 100-200km/h has to be one of the slowest acceleration times I've seen for the 992.1, it's usually in the 5.8 and even 5.7s 100-200 range, which is exactly the time the 992.2 Turbo S achieved here. I totally remember a rolling race video where a stock Turbo S held a stock 570S on a roll, and the 570S is a 5.7s 100-200 car. So, all I'm really trying to say is that the difference in acceleration between the 992.1 Turbo S and 992.2 Turbo S is not as big as this Auto Motor und Sport data shows us. The cars are likely much closer in acceleration as the data suggests : The new Turbo S "loses" the power advantage it has by being heavier.
Auto Motor und Sport, Sport Auto and Autocar are the only magazines that tests with 2 people onboard. That is always a factor and the main reason why their times are usually the "slowest". 😋

If they're both AMUS, we'll have to wait for more tests to make such an assertion. Perhaps the delta remains the same.

I would be interested to see the times from Autobild Sports Car I wonder if it will dip under 2.5sec to 100 and under 8sec to 200kmh.

Stig Laps are back! That’s right, The Stig is once again unleashed at Dunsfold, and to kick off our latest series of laps, we’ve lined up the very same Ford Mustang GTD that set a sub-7-minute lap at the Nürburgring. How fast can it go, and can it best the benchmark set by its arch-rival, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS?

C & D Tested: The 2025 BMW M2 Calls Out to Enthusiasts
A smidge more power just adds to the fun of the 2025 BMW M2.

1767876840920.webp


HIGHS: Standout styling, pocket-rocket performance, still offers a manual.
LOWS: The sporty seats will bench you, the steering wheel is sized for André the Giant's hands, the automatic's shifter layout is just silly.
VERDICT: Like any fun friend, the M2 is occasionally annoying but worth it.
