Best stock car

Had a chance to drive a 911 GT3, let's just say it is everything you want a sports car to be. It accelerates as hard as a Z06, yet with all the usual refinement of a German sports car. It's a shame no one can build one close to that for a lot less money, but we can only dream...

No its not, especially if you get higher in speeds.

I probably wont go to VIR until September, I will try to get the GT3 to go. I am sure he likes the idea of hitting 170mph...
