I wondered about that too. But if the KERS is way up there, doesn't it suggest that it might be working on the front axle?

KERS would be cool. The mule pics of the GT3 RS has those ducts covered too. hmm

Split exhaust similar to new RSR and Turbo. What is going on?

On the GT3RS mule they are taped over, but why put that lid on a GT3RS mule?

Not sure I like the twirled mustache canards, hopefully that will change, but the way the front fascia sides do away with the vertical rubber lip section is an improvement (may just be a covering).
The lower rear fascia looks like it's from production tooling.

Maybe that "GT3RS mule" is actually a GT2RS that's closer to done?

Exhausts lead me to assume NA GT3RS and TT GT2RS
