Careful Mooty, you don't want your wife to catch wind that you're calling her your intern!

I track my P1 and this will a fraction of that risk...so yeah if I get one we'll see how it stacks up to the ACR/ 675LT etc

For his sake I hope they are laughing. I remember last year when a certain vendor leaked confidential info on the Clubsport to rennlist which we had shared with him prior to the cars debut at LA. I don't think he ever made the same mistake again lol.

I think you guys are being a little tough on TomTom. He hasn't really said anything. The last GT2 RS had 620HP,so the new one will be about 650HP. Does it take a genius to figure that out? " A punch in the back " ? I haven't driven a water cooled Turbo that didn't give me " a punch in the back " and spin the wheels at 70 in 3rd... And the Turbo is AWD,I can only imagine RWD and all that power!
And the rest of the stuff he said about them testing 3.8/4.0,no wing manual...it's the same info we've been hearing from various cleaning ladies,nothing conclusive though. PAG is a large facility,there's a lot of cleaning to do. But there's only one level 1 cleaning lady and she's smoking hot!

Picture CUP front with big canards on the front, active aero bladder from the TTS, a little Gurney on the front bumper right in front of the front radiator outlet.
Same front fenders as the 991.1RS but reworked to fit 275/285.

Rear:
Big, semi active rear wing a hybrid wing between the current RS wing that moves like the TTS /918 wing, huge defuser between to cannon-like exhausts.
No manual.
Updated RWS.
Updated electric steering rack.
Updated PDKS gearing and programming. So no longer only granny mode and bat**** mode but sport, sport +, extreme and Race and Race Custom.
Same button with more settings as on the current C2S steering wheel.
Race custom allows you to adjust ABS, e-Diff, SC threshold and 3 settings for downforce.
SC can only be fully deactived with full downforce engaging over 60MPH.

Power
Bigger scoops for the air intakes a la GT4 plus fixed scoops worked into duck tail underneath the active rear wing. 700HP 640lb for 15 seconds on overboost.

Tires:
Next spec MPSC2, 285 / 345.

Colors:
CUP White and German flag colors as Mr Porsche intended are free.
All colors available in PTS from beginning to end of production run.

Brakes:
This time no std PCCB as already proven the 991 steel brake system is plenty strong and durable enough but a little more front brake cooling is added and a proper Movit based CCB system is optional. CF Carbon Revolution and Magnesium BBS wheels optional. Part of two track packages a la Weisach edition of the 918.

Clubsport package now available in the US but must be dealer installed with the CS package interior options reduced to current RS option list.
CS in a box + dealer install is an expensive option but it comes with a Barber track day to explain all the track setup of the systems.

Non-CS cars get sofas dont get the track packages option but all options available on the TTS are available. There will be a valet setting.

Base price $225K, CS package is 20k (Free ROW again) and can be optioned to well over $350K ...

No bull**** limited number plaque on the dash, same production numbers as the 991.1RS, the GT2RS is a direct replacement. No more NA RS.

Will remain in production along the TTS until 991 production seizes.
This will be the last steel tub, flat6, non hybrid RS.

Next 992RS will be similar with the 918 driveline mated to a flat8 in a CF tub.

^^ that all looks very credible to me. In fact, one of the most credible things I've read on here!
