Rumored GT2 RS

Rumormill: Porsche working on 580-hp GT2 RS — Autoblog

That thing would be an absolute monster. Not sure exactly where they would find the 440 pounds to drop, but that would put it down near 2,700lbs.

440 lbs seems like wishful thinking.

I could take 440 pounds out of that car.


For those who don't know, I do research on carbon fiber composites...


There's plenty there.
