Porsche GT3RS vs Megane R26R

[DOOMIE61]

All i can say is that hot hatches are becoming incredibly quick, although that is a mk1 GT3rs the newer ones will be allot faster

Wow, the porsche GT3RS can't even pull away from a mom's shopping trolley with the seats taken out...

That's one quick little Renault. Was it not for the fact that the Porsche accelerated slightly harder out of corners then the Renault might have gotten past. It is certainly very strong under braking and around bends.

Here's my favourite video of a little hot hatch spoiling the day for two sports cars. It features a Porsche 996 turbo and a Mk IV Celica having their own private little race when an innocent-looking Mk1 Golf shows up and proceeds to spoil the day for both of them:

Amazing speed from that little hatch, especially when considering its brick-like aerodynamics.

PS: Contrary to my thread about the ST vs 135i, in this case JK8 will not have any issues with this video as the hero happens to drive a VAG product.

Oh yeah, disregarding for a second that both supercars got a hiding from a little '70s mom's taxi, then one cannot help but be impressed by how the Supra manages to walk away from the Porsche. That 2JZ-GTE engine is the stuff of legend. It is capable of 1000 horses on stock internals.

Yeah very quick ok its meant for this seeing as it has no aircon radio nothing at all, but what it lacks it proves what it can do on the track..

Bwhahahahah i remember this video, Here's two very powerful cars racing then out of no were this golf passes them..

what an awesome video the RS and Megane ... it must be noted there is little difference between the 996 and 997 versions of that car. For a second i thought someone put a video up of my car, cause my mate had a Megane R26 ... ok not the R26R ... the guy in the meagne was def quicker than the Porsche ... but also remember the driver plays a big part on the track, (I need an excuse why the Porsche lost )

the same mate with the R26 then went on to buy an STI subaru, stock standard and is hitting 2:03's on kayalami ... on the day he was quicker than the E92 M3 that was there, modded EVO etc ... he knows the track ... but he will love this video ... thanks for the link

...ignore the interspersed German - 911 chasing an Aston Martin on Spa Francorchamps; watch out for the surprise heading into the La Source hairpin after the start/finish 'straight'.

Yeah the 997 and new 998 are much faster, can't wait for the 998 to come out

:erm:OMG NO!!!!! hahahahahahaha i was waiting for a golf or some hatch but a VW panel van!! that made my day...

That thing is hugely impressive - unfortunately their website is also more German than broken English, but you can get a decent idea of the amount of work that went into it in the gallery.

If memory serves, it runs a 993 Turbo motor. The bodywork is heavily modified with the pillars shortened and a custom carbon fibre roof added on etc. etc.

Awesome work. I think this video shows the same sequence, but from the van's perspective.

lol. the Z4 is nice, but i would highly take chances against a Golf that looks like its been modded.

I'm looking very forward to the new Megane RS. I just hope they keep the handling and dynamics the same if not better. no point making it faster and it doesnt handle as well .
