I've posted some video in the Greddy twin turbo thread. We are putting together a website now with a lot more detail.

The car performs great. It's a few ticks off the pace of a race prep'd GTR. On short tracks it fairs even better. 165mph back straight of Road Atlanta. I have run with 996 cup cars on slicks, and this car has always been on R888s due to class restriction.

The brakes are stellar. You can overpower the ABS if you bite down hard or you can use it if you taper in a little. Turn in is immediate, the car points quickly and stays very flat. Getting on power obviously requires reserve as there is an overabundance of it. On low boost (450whp) you can typically be WOT by track out. High boost (520) requires more finesse.

track times on R888s
Road Atlanta 1:34
CMP 1:42
Roebling 1:17
Sebring (very hot!) 1:25
NSS 1:07

This car on slick would really wake up. I would expect as much as 4 seconds a track on the longer tracks. Which make those times blistering fast.
