It was leaked right here in this thread three months ago, but few believed it.

If you don't believe me, don't. We will all find out on the release date.
Nice job @ArjandeV !

Nice job @ArjandeV !
Didn't see that. Thanks. So we can trust AjandeV on the weight and rev to 9K rpm hopefully.

A couple things I noticed looking at the photos again; it looks like the test car had a titanium roll bar and the fuel economy for the 4RS is rated at 12.3 to 13.2 L/100km with 281-299 CO2 while the GT3 looks to be very similar at 12.4-13.3 l/100km and 283-304 CO2. That would suggest very similar hp rating. I was looking at the gear changes between the GT3 and the 4RS and gears 2,3, and 4 look to be around 5kph or so higher in the GT3 while 5th looks over 10kph higher in the GT3.

The 9k was demonstrated in the published Nürburgring lap (as well as a top speed that required close to 500hp).

1415kg would make the PDK 4RS about same weight as the Manual GT3 (but a little lighter than PDK GT3)

I'm Andreas V

And of course V is the roman numeral for 5, and the 5th letter of the Greek alphabet is "P"

Andreas Preuninger CONFIRMED.

GT4 RS W/ 500HP TURBO ENGINE CONFIRMED.
Hahaaaaaaaa, now we just see 9k revs and 500ps.
I have to say you are damn right! It’s really himself obviously!

Power to weight ratio about the same as GT3! That's a big achievement. SWEET

maybe he meant BIGGER gearing (taller), I don't think it will have better gearing if not same.

Looked like GT4 RS had significantly lower speeds in each gear in the Nürburgring video at same 9k redline.

I saw significant lower speeds compared to normal GT4, but not GT3

Checkout Misha's video in which he analyzes speeds at different sections of the 'Ring.....

The interesting comparison is the GT4MR vs the GT4RS....what we are talking is if they kept the same PDK with same ratios that are used on a GT4.
