thank you for the beautiful pictures. the rt12 seems like a blast. white or black one would be crazy. i would like to see modulars mounted on it as well, as well as a comprehensive magazine test with the ohlins suspensions.

btw you can get a yellow pccb-esque keychain from exoticar. it's like $10. yellow caliper mounted on cross-drilled rotors. i will order one of these keychains

Btw, this car was RWD. Some cars being built are AWD.

I think this thread is likely to sell a lot of key chains. Rather than RT12s. LOL!

That's what I originally wanted ("yay!! PCCB!!!"...), but the disk felt like thick paper, and just didn't seem as durable as the red or black one with a disk that seems to be actually metal. BTW, the rotor does rotate in the caliper!

Can't believe we're hijacking a thread about the RT-12 with some stupid keychain!!!

EOS1Ds.

17-35mm/2.8 and 70-200/2.8 only. I chose to travel light this time.
Should have brought the 35-70/2.8. The wide angles makes the RT12 look a bit strange sometimes.

I'm sure the performance is otherworldly but the looks are not for me, just too busy and without harmony. Functional as hell no doubt but ...

The intercooler intake placement is pretty awsome. Also one of the best front valences i have ever seen
