Trickle down is a hallmark of Porsche. You may be right but...

stranger things have happened.

Thanks for posting.

Technically, maybe if they could get it low enough to facilitate a site line through the back window. But from a marketing point of view it's just be a big Cayman. Ya, it won't happen.

Yeup!! You bet... I saw it in person at the practice for the Rolex 24. (The Roar before the 24.) It is pretty damn amazing and total purpose build race car.

However, the Ford GT is altogether something different. The RSR seems somewhat normal compared to the Ford. Pictures do not do justice to the spaceship like dimensions and design of the GT is race trim. I was shocked when I saw it in person, and I have seen many race cars up close. The Ford GT is indescribable really... totally worth getting to an event to see one up close. I promise.

The RSR is still really really cool... don't misunderstand me. I have close up pics of both, I may get around to posting some here... but I am lazy with stuff like that... :-(
