Hmm, car seems great, but hauling on a road with zero shoulders, slopes and trees in the runoff, limited sight distance to spot cyclists and stopped cars ... sure hope the road was closed to the public while they filmed this.

Definitely not for the politically correct conscious... on the other hand...

....This by far the best promotional video on the 991 GT3 RS. Really tingles the senses. Well done EVO !!

Henry Catchpole by the look of things.

Agree about the video, some great angles and sound.

Me too. I still think the 991 GT3 lacks steering feel, and the steering is also too heavy.

The Myth of dawn driving from AP
same story when presenting the GT3

BULL**** MARKETING NEEDS MYTHS TO SELL

WHILE GOOD CUSTOMERS (AS WE ARE) NEED GOOD CONTENTS
not faked myths

What changes were made for the RS? Thought it was the same rack so software tuning?

Is this video that much different from most of the GT3 video's? Can only capture so much on an open road, sort of.

That hooligan! Who does he think he is to be driving like that in the middle of the field?! He should take it to the track! What if a bunch of kids were taking a stroll in the fields and crossing the street? What if a pregnant mom would rush across the street to pick some ripe corn? What if a drunk bicyclist was wobbling along trying to get home from the local joint?
Us rennlisters would never drive like that if someone gave us an RS in the middle of nowhere. We would drive within the speed limit,in the same manner we drive Nana to church on Sunday in her favorite SUV.
I've already contacted the cornfields attorney general to file a complaint against this fellow Harry.
