Here is a video featuring a Porsche Cayman GT4 and a normal A 110 ( 252 HP ) but with different suspensions. The Cayman could not overcome the Alpine... Enjoy, Nicolas

This is the exact pair I tried a few weeks back. I was not overwhelmed by the GT4 after the Alpine, which is already a testament to the abilities of the little blue car. On paper though, the GT4 should lap long/fast tracks faster than the Alpine.

Still, from a real world perspective, my scientific side had me asking how accurately different variables were controlled for in this Porsche v. Alpine “experiment,” exactly as the forum experts commented above.
