Nicely on it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yr7dTIFfJWI

Looks lovely. Gearing looks just right with 18's and PDK. Can't wait

[ChrisW.]

Oh yes

Lovely ...

In all honesty how hard would it be to convert a standard GT4 into a road going one of those? I'm guessing all the parts should fit and being a race car there should be a good supply of them?

Or is this the red wine talking?

There was one racing in the Bathhurst this weekend.

Or this DeMan Racing which was built up from a road Cayman S with GT4 Clubsport parts and manual to get better gearing for top speed.

PDK cars currently get a 100lb weight penalty over manual versions under IMSA race rules

PDK 7th gear inhibited and 6th gear is flipping long

Quite a bit. To be honest, on the road, the GT4 will be the better car anyway.

Just thinking if making an RS variant was feasible? Porsche have done the hard work it's surely just a case of plumbing it all together from their track car bits? The GT3 RS front wings would look very cool in it also!

You'd want to think about a power upgrade as the easiest way to get more performance with a few suspension bits and pieces to get greater adjustment on settings. 420PS is relatively easy and there is one 4.0L upgrade available in the USA and maybe one from Germany later this year.

Driver had the most amazing save after being, seemingly, nudged by the Bentley. Shame they binned it later on as it was going ok.

This must be an awesome adrenalin rush being that close to the walls https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwexbhqKZ9I

^^^ not sure what car it is - says GT4 but has 911 dash?

Yep. Race is well worth a watch, stunning track, no run off on the top of the mountain at all. Check youtube for the long format highlights when they get them up there.
