The car brings together a lot of learnings from the current, 24 Hours of Le Mans-winning 911 RSR plus the 911 GT3 Cup car.

Learnings like a fixed driver's seat that's mounted closed to the center of the car.

The 4.2-liter flat six is tilted forward, leaving more room for a new rear diffuser.

That wing has a swan-neck mounting, less drag on the bottom producing more downforce.

The wheelbase is longer, too, to provide more stability.
