The Turbo has never really been the track star in the 911 line up.

The track stars are really the GT3 and GT2 which lack the added weight and compromised handling resulting form AWD.
With that being said, the competition has improved but as performance and dancing around tracks the 911 is still pretty unrivaled, standing strong and proud like it has done the latest 40 years.
