Top speed is lesser in the S, but usable acceleration is likely on par, if not slightly exceeding the .1 GT3.

I've stated before that a properly tuned 991.2 Carrera S or GTS will easily be as fast as a 991.1 GT3 or even GT3RS.
Yep. Seems like it. Also 991.1 GT3 ran 1.09:5 at hockenheim short circuit while 991.2 Carrera S ran 1.09:6- I believe cars are very close (same rear wheel steering), if 991.2 S had same tires as GT3 it may likely be quicker.
