Wow!!! That is sweet!

Interesting that it doesn't have the vents in the rear bumper.

JCM, this is so not right, you should not post pictures of such an extremely amazing car, that makes the 997 GT3 RS look plain and boring.

Congratulations.

The Cup cars come from a different R&D exercise, but I do wonder where they think they're going with aero on the 997 Cup car. I really don't understand the differences between the Cup and the RSR. The mirrors are another example. Perhaps there are rules in there somewhere that influence these things. I also wonder about brakes on these cars. And what it takes to tweak a stock GT3 engine to these specs and imagine the power implications of removing restricted throttle bodies. The mind boggles.
