Porsche's 997 GT3 RS Chases Down Nissan's GT-R On The Ring

Eager to obtain the best time on its turf, it seems that Porsche has been working hard to best the Nissan GT-R at the Nurburgring. 

The time to beat is 7:26.70.

Although they have yet to reach that point and juncture, the latest lap from a Porsche was the 997 GT3 RS that achieved a time of 7:33.  Mind you this is six seconds faster than Porsche's own flagship, the Turbo.  That is an eternity in terms of track times. 

Congrats to Porsche for making yet another step. When will they surpass the GT-R?
