What do racers do? Tell me that they drive 4WD and I will laugh at you. Question: What car is the cupcar? Answer: GT3.

Porsche new car out for racing for 2004 GT3 RSR 445 HP N/A and light as hell.

 

Simple. they were made illegal. Too big of an advantage.

Keep riding that dinosaur a little slower but all that sliding is alot more thrilling.

 

GT3s were made illegal, wow where have I been that I never heard this? I cant belive what a top quality great source of Porsche information you are.

 

That does'nt make sense... If turbo's were allowed, everyone would have one, so all square again...Fact is awd is heavy...2wd turbo's would smoke 4wd turbo's on a road race track if pros were driving them. Were not talking drag strips here...I do recall the lowley GT3 putting in a faster lap time than the TT at the ring.... Besides, overhorsed turbo's are to unwildly on real twisty road tracks. Take a GT3RSR with the same driver and a modded turbo with everything racing on it and even 1000 hp, the RSR w/ half the hp will still win....

 

JAS,

"GT3s were made illegal, wow where have I been that I never heard this? I cant belive what a top quality great source of Porsche information you are."

I believe you are a little confused.

 

Tune in and watch a race, tell me what Porsche is racing, me confused, I dont think so, you clueless Im starting to think so.

 

rockitman,

Sorry, but you are jumping all over the place. Street legal, race cars, road race, track, stock, modified, RSR, RS. You are really starting to mix apples and oranges. Why don't you stick to street legal 2wd and awd. When you think you have the right street legal 2wd, give me a call.

The fact of the matter is the weight penalty of the awd is more than offset with the added power, handling and traction put to the road.

 

JAS,

"Simple. they were made illegal." This is my quote.

"GT3s were made illegal, wow where have I been that I never heard this?" This is your qoute.

We are talking about awd, not GT3's. Stay focused.

 

In our little debate, you have to be clearer man, sounded like you were talking GT3 and I was shocked at the comment.

cjv, You arent going to the shootout?

 

JAS,

My last dyno run about three weeks ago produced 626 rwhp @ 7400 rpm's @ 1.2 bar. The fuel pressure was set at five bar. The ECU was calling for all the fuel the system could deliver with 42 pound stock injectors. RC Engineering was suppose to deliver seventy-two pound high impedence injectors one week ago. They called and informed me they would not be delivered until after the first of the year.

I almost forgot. My afr's were just below 14.0-1 from approx. 5800 rpm's thru 7400 rpm's. Way too lean. The problem was caused because we went from a 76 mm throttle body to a 90 mm throttle body. When we changed the splitter we did not incorporate the added injector because the RC Engineering 72 pound injectors were suppose to arrive on time.

 

Ok so I take it you wont be making the shootout.

 

I believe I had posted that I would not be attending the shootout some days ago.

 

Well its hard to read every single post.

 

Chad, your right, I strayed...Let's put it this way: GT2 modded to the same hp as a modded TT...I still think with the appropriate driver, the GT2 will be faster due to it's weight and nimble handling advantages...

 

I agree... with the operative words being "appropriate driver". That being said, most drivers would be quicker in the TT.
