Autoblog shows a different pic of the rear end. Exhaust together like former GT3s. I wonder if the pictures at the beginning of this thread is really a GT2RS.
Yeah, I remain unconvinced. First, these are intake ducts, not exhaust, and I doubt they take in enough air to create meaningful downforce even if there were a logical place to exhaust the air, which I'm not seeing. Second, the frunk is sealed so no high pressure zone there to relieve and it needs to remain sealed to keep water out. Brake cooling doesn't make sense either given the location and complicated routing and plumbing that would require. Ventilation to the driver a la the Cup seems most obvious but question is why since ventilation is already well handled. Maybe aero. Maybe they route to fender outlets to clean up airflow, but the angle is pretty tough...
Now if they looked more like the outlets seen on the R mule below, that would be a lot more convincing.

Maybe it's just to look cool and differentiate it from the .1RS lookwise...I mean i'm sure marketing will call it some BS something or other...but I'm guessing it's just for looks.
