For this Porsche, life started out as a standard 2008 911 Turbo (997) paired with a Tiptronic transmission, but not for long as it was soon endowed with a TECHART Twin Turbo setup and T35 Stage 3 engine modifications, cooled down by TECHART carbon air intakes and intercoolers.

Right from the start, it was a relatively trouble-free run from pole to chequered flag for Imperatori, with the exception of a hairy moment when the race leader caught up with back markers in the latter stages of the 12-lap race. However behind him, it was a repeat of Round 3's white-knuckle battle between Sawa and Avila. Avila got away well from the second row and, as Sawa challenged Imperatori for the lead off the line, the Macau racer was able to charge round the outside and into second, albeit briefly. The Japanese ace reclaimed the position by turn four, and from there Avila relentlessly piled on the pressure. The trio were nose to tail in the early stages before the lightning-quick Imperatori pulled out a modest gap.
