But it also has a clutch pedal, no pdk and the old dinosaur engine no longer good enough for those hardcore C&C racers... So what? 
Sorry for sounding like a broken record but unlike yourself who is anti-stick, the manual guys don't object to paddles, just to the fact that we no longer get the option to go slower with a manual... A priviledge given to all buying any other 911 variant...

Looks like they failed to reach the podium in their debut

It's obviously because they're running that POS old Mezger engine.
Must not have had enough pennies in the coffers to put in that new, improved 9k RPM 9A1 unit.

Maybe they should buy a Camaro Z28 and save some money by taking that engine out and stick it in the CUP car(RUF already proved a V8 fits.) just throw the Camaro away for that price..

Quite the opposite, they'd have enough money to have a second "new Gt3" motor on hand, they just don't have the hour or two to swap it when it falls to pieces half way through the race... Speaks volumes for their confidence in the new donk when they run the "pos Mezger engine" as you put it...

lol... To be honest, golf is one of those sports I just can't follow because I'm so retarded at it that I always move the grass twice as far as the ball, lol... Awesome performance on his behalf but regretfully before today, I would never have known who he is... Such is my knowledge of that game with those annoying little white ***** that are so hard to hit..

This is excatly what I expected...all this talking that the 991 RSR will destroy the competition because the 997 GT3 RSR was so retarded etc..well the reality is different. The 991 RSR is a better car..but the competitors are not stupid either. It will be a tough season..and nothing is for free.
Judiging from the best lap times the 991 RSR was about 1 sec faster per lap compared to the older 997 GT3RSR..one second is good but not a huge gain..but all this is still not enough to beat the rest.
We will see....

I can see why teams are hesitant to run the new RSR this seaaon.
With some devopment it will be fast but i think it is time for 8cly or 960 tub.
