Plus, those straight cut gears would be murder for street use. Shifting slow is not an option. The manual specifically states that you must shift as fast as possible to avoid wear.
Pretty cool, huh?

What is the buying process like for an RSR?
What are the requirements, how long does it take, etc.?
Thank you.

Thank you.
That is the $64,000 question. Many have tried, but few have succeeded.
I have yet to get all the details on that. I do know that you have to sign a contract with Porsche. You have to have DEEP pockets and racing experience.
I will try to find out more.
The funny part is, my friend called me a few months ago and dropped this bomb saying he was getting the car. We then began to talk more about the car than actually how he managed to be choosen as a qualified buyer!
I guess I should ask.
Basically, Porsche Motorsport picks you. You don't pick them.
