That's the one
The video features a Supra overtaking an NSX which 'proves' the Supra is better.
They both pass a GT3 half a lap prior though

It looks to me that the NSX gave him a courtesy pass.
i agree, it looks like the NSX was slowing, the exit from the circuit is not too far away and was a decent place to let a 'passing' car go by.

The Supra is no faster at all.
Watch his boost gauge at the hairpin before the long straight. Both cars are bunched together by traffic. You see his boost gauge flicking over to max at the same time as the NSX floor the throttle. The Supra makes no gain what so ever on max boost in a second gear corner. Very disappointing for a turbo car.
Its no faster on the straight (the GT3 is cruising) and no faster out of the next hairpin. The 'pass' is a simple courtesy pass by slowing down and indicating.
Pretty good drivers though all the same. Lines aren't bad either.
speed on track is indirectly proportional to the value of your car
