Every 'finished' 992 I have seen has a 20/21 setup.

Perhaps all non-RS GT3s will be Tourings...

I think we may see the Touring become its own model line (Manual and NA) and the GT3 be a separate line (PDK-S and maybe turbocharged). Perhaps more differentiation next time with Touring further tuned to the street and GT3 further tuned to the track.

no, but the downforce numbers are within 10/15lbs per AP.

I'd like to think they have at least a couple years of testing (if not racing) before locking down the specifications...

Yeah, I haven’t picked mine up either- And I waited from order entry to delivery almost 15 months. Jeez, could have developed a new one in the meantime!
