Looks like the folks at GMG have a new toy.

so, the Cup car now have the widebody from the RS? I thought Cup cars have narrow-body (if you can call it narrow) like the standard GT3...

So Porsche Motorsport will be updating the Cup S car next?

GT3 Cup is now based on GT3 RS, not on GT3, so is a widebody.
Best,

Are the front fender extentions added, like the RS or part of the fender?

I'm in love! I'd bet I could get away with driving that on the street for a month out here.

They look like the same slap-ons that are on the street RS to me.

Gotta get those side mirrors on my RS.

At least one beat this one into the country, but who cares, the thing has me drooling too.

Will be fun to watch Sofronas in that thing...

It looks like they are part of the fender upon closer inspection. Look at how the seam between the fender and the bumper cover goes through them also.

I like the extra black plastic piece added in front of the tires to cut the aero drag/lift from the tires sticking out. That car needs a little more camber doesn't it

Same seam on street car. Just broken up by side marker light.

Re: black plastic piece, guess there's something to the little aero lip that Manthey Racing sells.

Aw no, this is so unfair. We never see anything like the action you guys do in the US here in Oz. Hmm, I need to find a reason to join the US arm of our business and enjoy cheaper Porsches for a while ...... sick of paying top $ for my addiction.
