Not saying the G8X isn't a great performer, because i have no doubts it will be, but this hasn't taught me anything new. This car is very very fast, and on a crazy fast track like this Power to Weight ratio will propel it.

I haven't read the full review here but on this track i don't doubt it can beat any non GT 911 other than the turbo and turbo S
The grip/ maintaining speed through turns is receiving equal if not more praise than the 'bonkers acceleration' I would assume the g80s gap over it's rivals will widen even more on a more technical track based on the feedback from Steve Sutcliffe here. And I mean if people want to be disappointed that this sports sedan can't outlap a $140k + porsche they will probably be able to do so lol so something for everyone
