Also, I can't help but feel there is a staged element to the races. Every car gets a little face time in front, and then a Cayman wins. It's how almost every one of these BM videos go.


This video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BkOMWTFSec shows that the 911 CARRERA S best lap time around tsukuba was 1'07.447 and in this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZGvu1rO0rM 1'05.350.Separate tests showed Best Motoring best lap times to be very inconsistent.
