^^^ right what I said....

Three Wheelin'
That is the best video I have seen to date of the car. That driver is just booking. There is plenty of slip angle in the turns. It looks more buttoned down with the extra downforce, and it comes off the corners more like a GT3 with the extra ponies.

... that would would especially benefit the gt3 with better rear access.

There is nothing new in this video that hasn't been posted in others in this thread before. It actually seems to me that its a cut and splice job to extend the length of it.
Those have also been discussed in this thread earlier. Best guess is that it will not be tubing like the CS but will make use of the rear window cubbys to feed into the existing plumbing.

Oh come on... this is a pre-production mule. These have been on the car since day one. Model is finished underneath.

^^^ only time will tell - happy to be proved wrong
as for the seats I'd be happy if they went back to the GT2 Sport seats with the hinged back ... much more comfortable than LWBS

And regarding the top gills on the rear quarter... it's probably not plexiglass... because it's not part of the interior anymore. My SWAG is that they have blocked off that part of the interior, and made it a full vent which connects to the engine directly... interior on road car has to remain noise-free and sealed.

My guess is you had one too many Bitburgers before posting tonight.

Where are the increased ducts on the side? Same size as Gt4 no?
