570S retains the open rear differential as its sisters but is calibrated for street not tracking use
which translates versus the Porsche PTV and electronic diff

in a non comparable product on track

or in few words comparing the 2 products is a non sense

So the 570s should run even with the GT3 on track and with some wheel/tire changes be just as quick as the RS. The 570s is at it's roots similar to the 991R, very sporty and intended for mountain roads. Nice car.

God forbid if McLaren ever begins putting real meats on it's cars.

I can only imagine what a future McLaren would be like with a wheel & tire combo of an ACR...

570S race car project could be a lot of fun. Are they planning a 570S GT4/McLaren race series?

We are trying to outline some customer stuff that could work.

Compared to other turn key race cars, the 570GT4 will be in the same price bracket. I believe they will sell them through my store to anyone that wants to buy them and unlike the cayman clubsport, won't require commitments of racing.

Not to get too far off topic but Shmee150 had a shot of them testing the 570GT4 at Spa a few weeks ago when he was there with McLaren.

No order, but would strongly consider, if not for the RS.
