before even watching the clip I'll bet that the NSX will kill them all in the corners, and may even come out on top is the Turbo Porsche gets held up a little bit in traffic

+1 to everyone that's wondering why the Z was in that race, and to the guy that said the Z driver sucked. I wish I knew Japanese for the sole purpose of understanding these vids because they might have explained why the Z was in that.

They were clowning the Z with that starting grid....that was funny.

It seemed like the modena could have easily passed the NSX a few times, but let it get back ahead under braking.

Alright, forget about the Z. Impressions of the other cars?
911s - bad@$$. That Carerra S, while it ran with no traffic, was quite impressive. I would like to see that driver behind the wheel of the Turbo. He seemed more aggressive.
NSX - I still love these. It was braking so much later in that first corner than the other cars. Not half bad for a car that is, what 18 years old now?
360 - Boring. Sexy looks, exhaust note, but it seemed too sterile. No real driver involvement. Paddle shifter FTL.

I liked the footwork of the NSX and Carrera S drivers. NSX especially. Loved the aggression of the Carerra S, dropping down to keep the NSX from passing on the last lap.

Disliked the Turbo trailing back in 4th place while it's underpowered sibling is at the front. Turbo driver FTL. Disliked how badly you could see the Z understeering in that 1st corner, on maybe the last lap or 2, when they showed it.

How embarrassing to have that big of a start and yet get passed so quickly and easily. The driver did suck though. It didn't seem like he was really pushing the car 100%. It looked like the Z was in "Limp mode" or something. lol. Anyways, about that NSX, its not 18 years old, it looks like an early 2000's model. Surprising the 360 got less of a max speed than the Z.

Um they should have had a real driver in the Z. Honestly, all he did was redline the **** out of it and burn out. Seriously, that was pathetic.

I just meant it is an 18 year old platform / design. not that specific car.
