Pretty insane performance.
A few take aways: -it's not much faster than the 911 GT2 RS. Does this make the AMG-One's time less impressive, or the 911's more impressive? (I do realize portions of the track were damp, so perhaps there's more time in the car). -Wow the engine sounds...bad. -Glad to see that I use the correct line when running on the 'Ring (virtually in Gran Turismo  )

Honestly when the AMG-One is low on charge (which happened a lot on the 'Ring) it's power to weight ratio is actually worse than the GT2 RS's. The AMG is around 500 lb heavier than the Porsche. Also being RWD instead of AWD definitely adds to the drama and skill required.
