Awesome car. Everyone see the 4.0l. Still any doubt that we have a GT3RS LE coming?

The 997 RSR has been 4.0L since forever. The GT3R also has a 4L.

911TurboS2 is an unknown quantity at this point
Based on specifications (e.g., power and weight), it should lose to the Ferrari 458 GT2 race car. Maybe it will prove more reliable.

Yes, reliability is an issue. Considering this car isn't completley new, it already has all of it's issues sorted out. The 458 is brand new, and the drivers don't have as much experience with it, and the problem areas aren't sorted out yet. Besides, Porsche is king at endurance races.

Here's a question: The 911 GT3 R has better specifications, so why doesn't Porsche just ditch the GT3 RSR, and run the GT3 R in ALMS? The GT3 R has 480hp, and this has 455hp. Manthey Racing used the GT3 R at Nurburgring this year instead of the GT3 RSR, and I don't think they wanted a slower car.

I'm guessing that the GT3 R fits GT3 regulations, and the GT3 RSR fits GT2 regulations? But GT3 cars getting more power than GT2 cars doesn't make sense. Somebody please explain. Rep will follow.

EDIT: It seems that the GT3 R was designed more specifically for the FIA GT3 Championship, which has higher set regulations than ALMS GT2. I understand now.
