First to call BS. The guy taking the pic is not in an NSX.

But to answer your question, a stock version wouldn't in straight line acceleration. Take them to a OT event, or maybe something like the Nurburgring, and maybe. Depends on driver.

I'd get a GT3, sell it, buy an NSX-R, and invest the difference.

The car the pic was taken from looks like a Mercedes SLK class with the traction control turned off.

Doug is in his 355. Wayne is in the Modena. Do not know who is in the Porsche. Very cool guys, not egomaniacs.

Default tanman-

that is mumfords (aka pmums) GT2. i don't know the whole story, but chris parr knows pmum, and hinted that pmum 'won' the GT2. You may want to email Doug, as I don't regularly speak to Mr. Parr, nor do I personally know Mr. Mumford.

regards.

I have met Doug Hayashi of Pulp Racing, License Plate on the 355 and Wayne is usually not too far behind Dough in his Modena from time to time. They attend the NSX monthly meets.

That is not a GT2 in the picture either, since we are tearing it apart and disecting it.

Default Wrong!

That IS a GT2! Look closely at the engine deck lid "GT2", and the fixed wing is only available on the GT2.
