Sweet. GT3 RS is no joke. What are the mods? Just lightened wheels?

Stock engine, magnesium wheels, Manthey modified KW (997 GT3 R based) increased downforce setting, Manthey alignment settings -3.5 camber front.

Same car did 1:05 in Hockenheim, faster than the 918 and ~3 seconds faster than stock 991 GT3RS.

It's no joke, but it's no .2 GT3 either.

These KW competition really are. Developed and adapted by the ex-KW Porsche product development guru and now a Manthey guy. Getting a set soon for the TT.

For the Ring they dialled back the camber to 2D42' and 2D3'.

She's basically stock aside from the consumables and GT3R's suspension.
- Stock engine (measured power at 496,9 hp)
- Stock gearbox
- Stock PS Cup 2 tyres (no ultra-hardcore version like AMG GT R or Corvette Z06!)
- 1,8 bar warm tyre pressure on both axles
- 20% more downforce than factory-RS (probably because of the different rear wing-setup)
- Adjustable suspension from the GT3 R (with 12% softer setup)
- Magnesium wheels
- Road-legal racing pads
- 3,5 Degrees camber on both axles
- After a few 1:06.2 min laps it managed its best time of 1:05,8 min on brand new tyres.
