Why would we need to guess the outcome.........when we already know it?
I want to see Scott run a car that is putting down the same RWHP as his. The SL65 weighs a lot more and puts down a fraction of the power.

Ok... that was very fair 
Fast Porsche, but hardly a legit race. A Heavy 4 door stock versues a tricked out two door...
Cool video though... would like to see the 911 against a Carrera GT...

That 911 would smoke a CGT (although not as badly as the 65), but I agree it's a pretty pointless video. Sort of like filming the 65 against an SUV or something. Way more power and way less weight equals a lot faster acceleration.

what a stupid worthless vid.. yeah let's race a max modifidied 996TT against a 6000lb sedan on a public hwy.
how about a race with 5 people and 4 golfbags in each car? that would make it more fair.

I 3,300lb. Porsche with insane HP vs. a near 6,000lb. car bone stock. What did you expect
On a side note that is one sick P-car. Wounder what it does in the quarter mile low 10's, high 9's ???

Pointless race
? Most of us will race anyone (with results usually of "big" surprise to those not knowing what they are up against).But, not an even match of cars/class of cars.
The 60-130 time of 4.9 seconds is unreal
. It was like the S65 was not even accelerating. Anyone know how much $ to get that type of power out of a 911TT?TK

The P car is definitely very fast, but a mediocre street driven TT Viper would eat its lunch. 1,200+ rwhp is nothing remarkable these days, nor is 8's. The latest UGR beast recently trapped 150 . . . . . . in the 1/8th.
Amazing how much power they're able to squeeze out of 4 liters or less though.

Really one of the more stupid videos I've seen...
And the dramatic camera work showing the S65 badge, then slowly over to the AMG badge was positively dumb.
LMAO... there are so many other cars that would be more interesting to watch there than MB's heaviest 4 door...
