REVIEW: The hardcore new Porsche 911 GT3 RS generates more downforce than the GT3 Cup racer, but does it also generate fun? Read our review to find out 🔥
makes at a similar speed; and considerably more, even, than a 911 GT3 Cup competition car. When Porsche’s development drivers get out of the new RS road car and into one of Porsche Motorsport’s slick-shod junior racing machines, they actually have to remind themselves to slow down a bit.
Porsche has worked to offset the extra weight of the car’s wider body, wider axles and bigger wheels, and of the various servos and electric actuators of that active aero system. The RS gets carbonfibre-composite front wings, bumpers and doors as well as the CFRP roof and bonnet that we’ve seen on other high-end Porsche GT cars. It can even be had with a carbonfibre rollover bar as an alternative to the Clubsport-package steel one.
The 911 GT3 RS isn’t notably quicker-accelerating than a standard GT3, but it does have that dartier steering response and keener sense of agility that has characterised wide-tracked RS cars for so long.
On a very wide and smooth race track, it was impossible to even begin to judge how the GT3 RS might ride on the road; and with spring rates cranked up 50% even over the already high settings of a regular GT3, it seems reasonable to wonder. We will wait and see.
