This whole thread has turned into a hit and run job. Let's just talk about the R vs RSR.

R is the keeper in my book.

Wish I had it to post. We'd be still discussing the incident at Christmas....

A picture is worth a thousand words, but a video about 6 pages on RL.

GT3 R and RSR deserves its own thread for sure. So in terms of GT3 iterations there are; GT3, GT3 Cup, GT3 America, GT3 R and GT3 RSR- did I leave any out?

The R is an amazing car as I got to drive it in the enduro on Saturday with Chip. Him qualifying at a 1:36.2 is simply amazing.....and ofcourse we had to remove the PMNA muffler system as it was too quiet and install our GMG center section on the car as Chip wanted to take off the extra 35lbs and make it sound like his old Cup car!

The OP couldn't hang with him nor could anyone else, you are correct John.....Chip had a blast and loves the car. The GT3R is the way to go for sure......
Well that settles it- I'm getting one.

R all the way. we're going to start to see a few wind their way into PCA, into the USA. for a while Klaus had the only one, not chip, there are 3 running in WC and there is a new one on its way to the north east that will have its fun at LRP, NJMP, Watkins and maybe a few WC races.
agreed on that exhaust, well done.

OP's cup with R bodywork :



KV's Andial Cup :



we took a hit to the left rear as a result of checking up for the accident ahead. Minor but bent a brand new wheel, new fender, and dinged up the new wrap:

Did the Scrut review the wheel hit between DK and Tom? Did either receive a 13/13?....

Yeah, the wrap is a little wild. Owner is the VP of propulsion at SpaceX. This is a thermal image of rocket fuel burn...

They did, and I don't believe either were reprimanded for the incident. I know our guy is clear, and I think the same for DK. Issue was the KV cup parked perpendicular to traffic flow through the corner.

Anyone know the year on Chip's R?
