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.

And of course it looks outrageously good.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
