Looks very functional.

Now someone end the Porsche domination in GT3 already!

that powerband seems a bit short, 750rpm from peak torque to peak power

A racing car has no need for a large powerband, with a very fast 6 speed 'box.

I'm sorry, what?

made no sense to me either. itd have to be a crazily short ratio diffrence between gears to only need that 750rpm range, guess theres not much of a drop off after 8,000rpm as the limiter is at 9,400.

are these two the last model?

It's a GT2 car BTW. And i remember a racing Punto (gen. 2) had only 500 rpm of usable racing area. And maybe the torque graph is very low so it doesn't hurt it going under the max torque RPM.

No. Those are 2007 997 RSRs.

The one in the OP is an updated model with better front-end aero.

Yes you're right. I really dislike Porsche's GTn naming system.

It can get confusing: the GT2 roadcar has in fact nothing to do with GT2 race cars, but the GT3 is used as the base for racing cars.

I think the GT3 GT2 racecr is actually a base for the GT3 RS road car :P Well, i think they used a Porsche chassis, made a 'GT3' and then made a road car with scaffolding in the back, rock hard suspension and a bar counter on the back

I can't stand the naming system either, but the car looks great. I can't wait to see it run.
