has someone clear infos about the new Michelin SC2 („ZP“) tires used on the record lap?
and how to get it with the GT2RS? which exact tires are coming with the WP?

and when a 918 owner mounts them and organize Lars Kern or somebody who is able to lap the NOS sub7?

Wow!! Terrific news for the ROW customers. 1000, at least, for NA.

Didn't China recently declare all electric by 2040? That's probably why.

Wait! California is about to declare the same thing!

Oh, oh. Bad news. California's joining hands with the Chicoms.

Same in France... Only electric car on the market for 2030 or 2040... but we will be able to drive our porsche and ferrari if we want. But in 2030, no Porsche with thermic motor 😪😪
we will no see the next gt2 rs with a thermic motor... 😪😪

All electric by 2040? That's a crock of idealistic bull.

The current US market share is .9 percent. If that number were to be 90 percent, lithium prices would exclude an overwhelming majority of people, thus it couldn't happen.

The plastic front fender louvers from the 991.1 GT3RS is more flushed to the contour of the front fenders, than that of the GT2RS. The carbon fiber front fender louvers of the GT2RS sticking just above the contour of the front fender directs the air more towards the side air scoops, unlike the GT3RS.



Plastic front louvers on the GT3RS does not stick out above the contour of front fenders.

I can also see why Porsche has stopped the Paint To Sample (PTS) order with Weissach Package (WP) since it really is a labor intensive process. I looked at the fit and finish of the TURBO S Exclusive Series and the quality put into this design by Porsche is superb. Feeling the joint of the exposed carbon fiber and the paint is seamless.

Exposing carbon fiber as striping over a painted panel seems to be a meticulous job to do as part of the Weissach Package for the GT2RS, as shown in the production of the Turbo S Exclusive Series frunk. Fast forward to 36:33 through 41:05.
