Default Two Timer: Porsche 993 GT2 Is Worth a Second Look



The 1996 Porsche 993 GT2 was born out of homologation and the company's desire to race a variety of levels, including Le Mans.

Isn't there an error in the Rennlist link? The GT2 is RWD, not AWD.

Correct. I had no interest in the video when they get something this basic about that car wrong.

Maybe its just me, but an AWD car, no matter how much horsepower can't be labeled a widowmaker. What a strange article, especially with the amount of hyperbole explaining incorrectly the GT2 drivetrain.

...thanks IB i guess?

I'm guessing he is a new IB employee trying to blend in.

The video accurately states the GT2 as RWD.

Good video. Forget the text intro if you want.
