We all got to be excited. In an age where everyone going to Turbo engines the GT3 and 458/Speciale are the swan song . These cars are almost impossible to get and 5 years from now these cars will be still highly sort after.
The million dollar question; does Porsche go out with a bang with a 500 hp plus NA engine in the RS???
You can't tell me it is not killing you to find out.

great video! thanks for sharing. that exhaust note is incredible for stock. can't imagine how bad a$$ it would sound with a bypass.
looking forward to more videos once the car is broken in...hear that sweet song at redline

I've never heard 9k rpm in real life.
In videos the 9000 RPM sounds like a toy, or tin can rattling..
Anyone heard it in REAL LIFE and can comment..
. I imagine the mic's can't pic it up. I'm sure it sounds awesome in real life. -- I think the Evo car of year is the only video w/ 9k that sounds good.
-- I'm sure Arths will be cool when they come out too..
--I'm sure everyone's seen this video. Here at 9k ( I imagine they hitting 9k.. ) . it sounds like a factory race car..

Hi, thanks for watching my video post 3. We had two day track at Paul Ricard, France. The car ran perfectly. True the 991 Turbo was pulling away, it is the S version. But then cornering and braking the GT3 is faster. Then the Turbo could not do more than 5 laps before it turbo manifold detached itself, it is made out of olastic and with heat and pressure it disconnect and you loose power. Same happen with a friend 12C who was pulling away but catching back in corner and braking even with her aero vent. Then he had water cooling exploding in the engine compartment. I did 7 sessions ranging between 30-40mn without any issue. I had made some improvement in the car especially the geometrie, brake pads, brake line. The car is just great. I had also the Pirelli Trofeo R which were great. I did not like the Michelin when I tried last December on the same track. We were 5 friends with the 991 GT3, sorry for my US folks we got car and engines replaced rapidly... We all had a great 2 day track. One of the 5 car had a problem with an electric part which was replaced on the track. Otherwise no issue to report the car ran flawless

great to hear of such solid performance of your car and how well you drive it is most impressive ! I started this thread three days ago and now 2500 plus folks checking it out is cool
What kind of video set up are you using that shows all the data , gear, tach
G meter etc. ? It sure is great.
Most importantly Thanks for such a great video post on RENNTEAM !!

Specifically, the durability of the new GT3 on the track is very welcome information for all!
