I think Porsche wants to take some of the current premiums for itself!

Magnesium wheels will look awesome on the garage wall. (Expensive decoration)
I won't track with magnesium wheels.

I don't have that level of a cleaning lady, but I expect it will have it.
If RWS came on the GT3, RS, and even the lightweight focused 911R, I would expect it on the GT2RS. It's now considered an essential performance improvement for the 991 body/wheelbase, even with the weight penalty.

I don t see how they could (try to) beat AMG GT R without RWS

All these GT cars are getting far too expensive to track. I'd really like to see the figures of tracked gt3 vs gt3rs vs gt2rs vs Fcar's vs Mac's.

The Porsches were the most dominant as a total combined which was surprising. There were a few Ferrari's and decent Mac turnout but they have a strong presence in Austin. Great dealership I keep hearing about.

Does your purple RS really get that much less attention than a Ferrari?

Six RS's being tracked at Homestead last week.

Not having any inside info, I'm pretty sure it will. It seems that everyone will be doing RWS on high-end cars and even SUVs soon. It's a noticeable improvement in lap times from a rather simple and cheap mechanism (achieving a comparable benefit in lap times and stability purely mechanically would have been way more expensive).

.1 3RS 3281 lbs with steel brakes and to compare the 3500lbs GT R add another
100lbs because of turbos , so expect
3380lbs GT2 RS
