here's a crappy 9 second clip someone took of us from our drive yesterday. I had the jump, but quickly lost when my car shifted and Vader kept going

No I am not, PSK got a wicked jump while my revs were dropped.
He is good at a light and as an ex C32 owner the C32 launches fairly easy, where the porsche you need it revved up, if you do rev up the launches in the GT3's are freaking nuts..There would of been some tire smoke if I launched it right.
I wish the vid was longer, because of the school bus I put on him

He was driving and filming and probably wanted to keep up, there were about 6 cars on that run.

Yeah, but it was not like setup or anything..just messing around..
C32's are fast.
I test drove a E46 M4 Comp package a couple weeks ago.
Man that thing felt slow. I guess the motor was not broken in, but serious C32's kill M3's..
