Pretty awesome. Track setup data at 5:56 worth a look for current owners.

Great video. I spent two days at Autobahn with my 991.2 RS. Great track! Hope to get my .1 there.

Here is the set up sheet that Porsche came up with for this car with Cup2 R Tires.

Interesting that the car is very light in this set up sheet. 1468kg - 75kg driver ballast = 1393kg (3071 lbs)!

Question that number. Porsche states 3,268 curb weight.

Curb weight includes 75kg of driver and luggage and 3/4 full standard tank, so for apples to apples, there is no need to deduct those 75kg. That gives us 3236 lbs, which is pretty much the quoted 3,268 lbs curb minus some lbs via weissach package and - or + some lbs for fuel, depending on whether they have an extended tank.

Thanks for the clarification. Didn't know the published curb weight includes 75kg driver. The fuel was indicated at 5/8 on the setup sheet.

Anyone has the factory F/R ride height numbers so we can know if Porsche made any change on this setup?

Also didn't know that about Porsche curb weights. So, as it sits with just a few gallons on board, 992 RS Weissach is effectively 3,000 lbs.??

savagegeese RS probably has fal and extended fuel tank. Absent those options and low fuel, under 3,000 lbs. as it sits? sorry, I'm in full Lotus mode here. Find this crazy in the context of modern real world car weights like those found during eCoty (from 26 mins).
