It's funny seeing the race car look of the GT3RS with the huge wing and then you look at the in cabin camera with a dude without helmet with a huge cabin, rear seats and all looking like he is on a road trip, if it wasn't for those damn gloves...

Interesting observations, agreed. Also thought the color of the GT3RS looked spectacular as the sun kept hitting the boot in and out of the corners - almost SO like. Till he got passed that is!

Very good driving, but the car in the Vid is likely this one from Kaege with 517ps, which does give him an advantage :

Maybe but the GT3 seems to have a less skilled driver. He or she is missing apexes and a few spots they get a bit squirrelly for no real reason.

M3 driver is ICE. Bet the M3 driver would win in either car.

The Mini drove very badly. No awareness what so ever, very dangerous

The M3 driver was spot on, you could see he was looking way ahead like you're supposed to, even through the corners, he also had the presence of mind to hit the flashers, at the yellow flagged section.

OR the GT3 driver reasoned which car was more expensive to repair/replace. M3 or GT3. hmmmm... no brainer. Let the guy win. lol

The M3 driver in the OP's video probably has few thousand ring laps under his belt. For him, it might have been a just another day at work.

The way he passed the bikers, I thought it was too close for comfort but it might be just the camera angle.

I don't know if it's the same pair of cars but it's definitely a different day. Enjoy the GT3 chasing the M3, plus that glorious flat six sound!
