They have been filming on the isle of man with every generation of GT3RS, had both 991.2 weissach and standard, didnt get to hear much but visually a huge step up from the 991!

Heard that weissach pack has gone from some European configurators? It’s not on the porsche.de website configurator anymore?

Mine is on its way from the factory - so possibly here in a week or 2 - should be before the end of April. Will miss the chance to take it to Ring/ Spa later this month, but will be out at the Ring for DN19 in May - can’t wait for that smile

They’re having real issues with the wheels apparently. My OPC has a WP GT2 RS arriving a month late on standard wheels...Magnesium wheels will arrive when they get them! Which they haven’t been given a date for. I think it’s on the Henry Catchpole vid for the GT3 RS that AP tells him Porsche are currently taking 70% of global magnesium wheels production. Sounds like they could take all of it if the6 could!

OPC also no idea whether WP will be available for the UK if/when there is a second batch of cars.

I believe they are going for recorded lap times today, so look out for the vids and times later. Rumoured sub 7mins?
Cheers.

I know it's testing, but can anyone offer an explanation why the green car is driving like he stole it, whilst the black car is lapping like, well, me really?

Very much looking forward to seeing lap times and videos later this week.

Does sound great in true Flat 6 way ...the Green WP car was the pro driver , black with plain white helmet possibly client and the white car with gold wheels which looked great ... no helmets so taking it easy ..

6min 56secs - only 7 seconds behind the 700hp GT2:

They still have another day this week to try to improve that too.

Epic sound as well .... looks really stable even when taking a big amount of curb , the suspension changes are the key .
Trying obviously as hit the limiter into the final corner !

If this 6' 56 secs time is correct then its an astounding result.! Even more impressive than the 6' 47 time set by the GT2.RS when you take into account the huge on-paper 180 HP and 207 Lbs/ft torque deficit..
And to cap it this figure is likely to slightly improve further end of the week...My WANT has just gone through the roof..
