A guy in the coworking space I'm in has a Huracan. Those things sound as mean as they look. I would also be glad to volunteer as a driver if you ever wanted to put the GT3 RS head to head with the Huracan. I would think it would be a pretty close battle.

I ended up ordering 275/55/20 BFG KO2 tires. The Nitto sizing was slightly shorter yet wider than stock and it appears there may be some clearance issues with the knuckle upright with extremely wide tires.
