Well, it is nearly Wing Wednesday: we've driven the heavily bespoilered Porsche 911 GT3 RS around SilverstoneUK to see what all the fuss is about. 'On the track, it’s mind-blowing,' concludes JamesTaylorCAR. Read his full review this way 🏁
Tested on track at Silverstone GP circuitWhen CAR magazine first drove the current 992-generationin prototype form in 2020 with Porsche’s director of GT cars Andreas Preuninger, he described how his team is challenged to find ways of ‘upping the ante’ with each new GT3. Consequently every new iteration of the regular-series 911 GT3 becomes a bit more ‘RS-ish.’
Starting at the front, Porsche has given the 911 GT3 RS one big single radiator in place of a regular 911’s three smaller ones . In the RS, thereno boot. The luggage space is taken up by the radiator, angled at 43 degrees to the horizontal – an angle which Porsche’s race team has learned is the optimum for flow. The advantage of going to a single radiator format is that it creates space either side, below the headlights, for two front wings.
And you really feel that aerodynamic grip. It’s not a placebo effect: there’s a professional instructor/pathfinder ahead of me in a regular 911 GT3 and his car is skittering, twitching through the fearsomely fast sweepers that open the lap while the RS is planted. But it’s still immensely involving. It’s not a case of all-grip, no fun.
The other two are rather more rarefied, and indicative of just how far this car moves the goalposts for track-focused sports cars. Top left wheel is for the dampers: you can adjust compression. Normally you’d need to pit and spend time with a toolkit.
