About the Porsche GT3RS 3.8:
The Porsche 911 GT3 is a high-performance homologation model of the
Porsche 911 sports car. It is a line of high-performance models,
which began with the 1973 911 Carrera RS.
In February 2006, Porsche unveiled the second generation of GT3,the
997 commonly now known as the 997.1 GT3. In addition to a new 415
PS 3.6 liter flat-six engine, the vehicle featured "zero lift"
aerodynamics, meaning the car creates only aerodynamic downforce
and no grip-diminishing "lift" upwards and away from the road
surface. The GT3 made use of a modified, track oriented version of
Porsche's active PASM suspension making it the first of Porsche's
RS or GT3 versions to feature an electronically adjustable
suspension system. Also available was a navigation system and
Porsche's "sports chrono" gauge package. The car went to sale in
summer of 2006. A total of 917 units were sold in the United States
and 46 units in Canada.
Porsche also offered an RS version of the 997 GT3. The 997 GT3 RS
was introduced in Europe in October 2006 and in North America in
spring 2007.
The 997 GT3 RS is 44 lbs lighter than the 997 GT3, weighing in at
3,020 lbs. This weight-saving was achieved by the use of an
adjustable carbon fiber wing, a steel engine cover, and a
lightweight plastic windscreen.
The body of the 997 GT3 RS is 2.5" wider at the rear than the 997
GT3. The muscular-looking rear end conceals a wider track that not
only improves directional stability but also increases the
potential cornering grip. However, drag is increased and top speed
is reduced due to the larger rear wing. In addition to the new
technology, the paint scheme and body panels are all designed
specifically for the RS.
In 2009, Porsche launched the 2nd Generation 997 GT3, commonly
known as the 997.2 GT3, with an enlarged 3.8 liter engine rated at
435 PS. It also featured a number of new options including dynamic
engine mounts and a pneumatically lifting front axle to compensate
for the low ground clearance. The rear spoiler was also modified
along with other parts of the bodywork. Deliveries in Europe
commenced in November the same year. A total of 654 units were sold
in the United States and 58 units in Canada.
For 2010, the second generation 911 GT3 RS known as 997.2 GT3 RS
received an additional 15HP due to a new 3.8-litre flat-6 engine,
bringing total power output up to 444HP.
The car was not approved for competition in the United States by
IMSA American LeMans. Grand-Am originally did not approve the car,
but after performance issues (a Porsche team did not compete at the
Indy Grand Prix of Alabama round), Grand-Am approved the
second-generation car in April 2010.
Porsche test drivers had intended to enter the 2011 12 Hours of
N�rburgring on a standard road legal 911 GT3 RS, but had to
withdraw due to health reasons from the team that comprised racers
Roland Asch and Patrick Simon, plus journalists Horst von Saurma
and Chris Harris. The car, entered in cooperation with sport auto
is registered as S-GO 2400, and was driven from Weissach to
N�rburg. The RS was modified according to safety requirements,
which included a larger roll cage and fire extinguisher. As no race
tires were available for 19" wheels, the 18" wheels of the Carrera
Cup racers were used.
A total of 541 units sold in the United States and 71 units in
Canada.
