I was coming up I-5 from Long Beach today and followed the antics of a yellow GT3 and a Burgundy Carrera S. The Carrera seemed to always get away from the GT3 but I would think the GT would be better at what it does.

Driver ya think?

A GT3 is not what I would consider a modified Carrera S. Different motor and gearing along with different suspension components.

A GT3 is a 996 body Porsche. Its faster then a Carrera S and looks pretty much the same. Then again, I consider a GT3 Cup Car a modified Carrera 4. Same chassis, different bolt on stuff (engine, suspension, interior, body bits).
