GT Porsche Magazine - RS by Andrew Frankel
Some of the standout quotes and pics.
Accept No Substitute
With its new 997 GT3 RS, Porsche has build one of it's greatest ever raod cars.
It is one thing not to trust the car that you're driving.... but it is quite another to reach a point in a car where you're not sure you can trust yourself.

Until now, in my opinion, the three finest 911's ever built are the '73 RS, the 993 RS and the current GT3.

Don't let the number plates fool you: this is a track car, as extreme a road-going 911 as the 964 RS just with another 200hp and a mercifully better ride

What strikes most, though is the car's balance.
A GT3 is not only capable of, but on the limit, inherently inclined to, exhibit quite large slip angles at both ends.
