Porsche 911 GT2 RS

The Porsche 911 or 991 GT2 RS is a track focus sportscar manufactured by Porsche.
== Description ==
The Porsche 911 GT2 RS is a high-performance supercar that has been revered by automotive enthusiasts and critics alike since its debut in 2010. It is the fastest and most powerful road-going 911 model ever produced by Porsche, and continues to set the standard for performance and technology in the sports car world.
The GT2 RS is based on the 911 Turbo, but takes things to a whole new level with its lightweight construction, track-focused design, and unparalleled speed. It is powered by a 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engine that produces a mind-boggling 700 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. This allows the GT2 RS to sprint from 0-60 mph in just 2.7 seconds and reach a top speed of 211 mph.
One of the key factors that makes the GT2 RS so powerful and agile is its extensive use of carbon fiber throughout the body and interior. This lightweight material not only improves the car's overall weight and balance, but it also adds to its aerodynamic prowess. The GT2 RS features a large rear wing and a front splitter, which work together to create significant downforce and help keep the car stable at high speeds. The Porsche 911 GT2 RS is a high-performance sports car that has gained immense popularity since its debut at the Xbox 2017 E3 briefing. The car was unveiled alongside the announcement of the highly anticipated Forza Motorsport 7 video game, where it was chosen as the cover car and a playable vehicle. This marked a significant moment for Porsche as it showcased its partnership with Forza Motorsports and brought the iconic 911 GT2 RS to the virtual world.
However, the excitement did not stop there as Porsche officially launched the 911 GT2 RS at the prestigious 2017 Goodwood Festival of Speed. The unveiling of the high-performance car was accompanied by the introduction of the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series, highlighting Porsche's commitment to pushing the limits of performance and luxury. The 911 GT2 RS immediately caught the attention of car enthusiasts and set the standard for what a true supercar should be.
In the following year, the Porsche 911 GT2 RS made headlines yet again when Porsche test driver Warren Luff set the fastest production lap record at The Bend Motorsport Park. Luff, behind the wheel of the GT2 RS without the Weissach package, completed a blistering lap time of 3:24.079 minutes around the challenging 7.77 km GT layout. This achievement further solidified the 911 GT2 RS as a dominant force in the world of supercars.
But the most significant record set by the Porsche 911 GT2 RS was yet to come. In October of 2018, Porsche test driver Lars Kern shattered the Nürburgring Nordschleife lap record by completing a lap in just 6:40.33 minutes. This incredible feat was achieved in a 911 GT2 RS MR prepared by Porsche-owned Manthey Racing, showcasing the car's immense capabilities and solidifying its position as one of the fastest production cars in the world. This lap time also surpassed the previous record holder, an unmodified Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, which had previously taken away the GT2 RS's record in July.
The speed and performance of the 911 GT2 RS was not limited to the Nürburgring, as Porsche went on to set multiple production lap records with the car in 2019 at various North American circuits. These records included a lap time of 1:24.88 minutes at Road Atlanta, 2:15.17 minutes at Road America, and 1:22.36 minutes at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park. These achievements demonstrated the unrivaled performance of the 911 GT2 RS and solidified its position as one of the most iconic and fastest sports cars in the world.
