thats a really cool car...but something in me just feels like its wrong...
Im a bit tainted though as I spend a lot of time around a couple of cup cars and am quite partial to them and how hardcore they are...so when I see something like this...Im kinda "off".
One thing I dont like are the dymags...they just dont hit the spot for me...howabout some bbs racing rims or some custom fikse 13s, profil 5s, or 10s? Thats what a good deal of cup-cars run and they arent quite as expensive as those dymags...
The interior of that car is SEX on wheels...but if thats the same type of seqential on the 997 cup cars...that must be a hell of a hard car to drive normally as the cup's isnt exactly mistake or even small oops prone...but that thing must sound friggin NUTS!

That's pure racing oh and to add to it, it's on slicks. I do have to say the RGT's quite beautiful though, but defintely not a car that's as purpose built for track use as this car is.

That's the cat's a$$...and I'm sure its a lot of $$$. Probably been real quite about it because its better and more fun to look at than the new CTR3. Didn't want to overshadow that launch of the Ruf Cayman inspired supercar.
