Newest factory race car, GT3RSR
Please leave this thread alone, even though pics are from CFOS. This car deserves its own thread.
 I drooled all over this, the newest/latest/best-est factory racer, the GT3RSR:  Nice office...., the state of the art in cockpits:  This car is brand-spankin' new, had its first track day 2 weeks ago at Willow Springs.

Not to sound uninformed (which I am), but what's in the back?

I know, what a joke. They're building the best sports/racing/endurance cars the world has ever seen.
