    That GT3 has a 3.9 liter stroked engine and perfect gear ratios for Zhuhai track, while my 360C only goes up to 5th gear there. It was fun though.

    Fantastic racing WS. You need more horsepower and shorter gears! Great job under braking

    You definitely need a 430C to teach those pesky brothers a lesson. You got chopped bigtime and it looked completely excessive. Gentleman drivers not. I don't understand why he defended his line so much. He should have used the normal racing line and simply run away from you when he had a gap.

    LOL!!!

    I've raced with them, and they are indeed a bit rough. However, in this instance, could he have made a mistake? I mean, its such a fast corner that a move like that could have had BOTH of you in big trouble. Doesn't seem worth the risk with all that grass on both sides of the track and no sand traps in sight.

    I don't understand why he defends his line so much either, but hey I'm not complaining because it makes it easier to pass him after the corner.
    Getting out dragged after that is why I need a 430C now.

    The younger brother has done it to me twice now. Once in Sepang now at ZIC. Maybe next time I'm not going to be such a gentleman.

    He did apologize after the race, so I'm not sure if he did it intentionally. We were both very lucky we didn't have to write a big cheque to fix our cars after that incident. I honestly thought we were both going into the inside wall. That would have been an ugly shunt.

    Completely agree. Maybe he only knows the line using 1/2 the track!!! You were so much faster on T14. I have sent the video link to lots of friends. I may have to start a fan club for you

    Yeah man! Too long! In the meantime, swapped the yellow 360 6-speed for a black with F1, then bought a 996 GT3 RS, then sold them both, then went into sportscar withdrawal, then bought a 996 GT2. I hear you've also gone through some "changes". Give me a call when you're next in HK, and we can stop hijacking this gentleman's thread!

    Ahh... That's better if he apologised. He did that to me once entering T12 with both of us hard on the brakes. He just banged into me and pulled away, like someone who doesn't know you're there, which is why I'm not sure if its intentional, or he just isn't as observant as he should be.

    Ha, ha, ha, hold off on the fan club. I have plenty of videos showing some of my pretty embarrassing drives too.

    Oh, I think he knows where other cars are relative to himself, but both brothers do not back off when prudence say otherwise. Reasonably friendly guys off track though.

    Nice driving cwwhk. The Porsche guy's lines are terrible, even if he is defending. With the grunt he has, he should have left you for dead. His lines meant he is way too late onto the power out of each corner.

    Great vid.
