I watched it do 50 laps. Dont' they ever run out of fuel? Pretty consistent even down to the same wheel spin at the same corner each time.

I wonder what the camera car was and who was driving. It looked like he could have overtaken any time he wanted.

So your a manager at the Porsche test facility and you want to video laps of the new GT3 as it goes as hard as it can. You need a test car to hold the camera, and to be able to keep up.

Here is the conversation:

Hans: Vee need und camera car Gunter?

Gunter: Ya, und it must be fast to keep up without too much trouble.

Hans: So, vat ya tinken der Gunter?

(They both look around the floor of the test facility garage.

LIGHT BULB goes on Over Both their heads. and say at the same time...

RS Spyder ist Gut Ya?

No need to detail the fight on who got to drive it...
