A closer look at the top three fastest cars from the Moscow Unlimited event in September of last year including the third place Protomotive VRT1200 997.1 Turbo

So the GTR that won is just as fast as the ICS e36 M3 in the mile. Interesting.

How long did it take the ICS E36 M3 to cover the mile? The E36 is def significantly lighter than the GTR, so it'd be great to see their power/weight ratios compared also

The mile is really all about trap speed. ET is cool and all but it's a power run.

Just asking cause that's how the Moscow Unlimited ranked their cars. The 3 cars with the fastest trap speed finished 1st, 2nd and 6th​.

Ya, I disagree with their ranking system. It favors all wheel drive cars versus power. It also turns it into a mile drag instead of a mile run. You can roll into the throttle at the Texas mile, how it should be.

You can't expect rear wheel drive cars to have the rubber necessary for traction AND trap speed. So, I feel it's slanted the wrong way.

I don't expect you to know, but is this how they ranked this specific event or is this how they decide the winner for every event? The Moscow stuff def seems a lot more like for every to bring out their toys & not a tuner showcase like at the Texas Milke/TX2k__

Fortunately I do, every event result I have seen has been sorted by ET.

Oh no, it is a tuner showcase and a Russian hardware showcase but it isn't up to Texas2K hp standards. It's definitely highly impressive though.

Indeed it is

I bet the aero in a GTR is worlds better then what is found in a 99 bmw m3.

Correct. I also bet the track in Russia isn't as choppy as the 1 in Texas....
