The Porsche 911 GT3 R rennsport Is a 611-HP Track Star With a Gigantic Wing

File this under wish fulfillment. Sick of all those pesky FIA regulations governing power, weight, gearing, and other attributes of its race cars, Porsche decided to throw them all out and build the phenomenal Porsche 911 GT3 R rennsport, its latest ultra-limited, track-only dream machine revealed at Rennsport Reunion 7 on Thursday night. Based on the 911 GT3 R race car with a 611-horsepower, 4.2-liter flat six revving to 9,400 rpm, all-new bodywork and a gigantic wing inspired by the iconic Brumos Porsche 935/77, it's... well, just look at it. This thing is fire.

We say "based" on the GT3 R race car, but really, it is the GT3 R freed of those FIA constraints. The same superlative chassis, the same screaming engine, the same suspension, just in an entirely different package. Only the GT3 R rennsport's hood and roof are shared with the real thing. The rest is a fever dream of max performance.

As the most obvious visual element, the massive, swooping rear wing harks back to the Brumos Porsche 935/77 that took home Porsche's seventh overall victory at Le Mans back in 1978. Porsche says this wing generates so much downforce that two extra vertical supports had to be added to compensate. It sits atop a full-width lightbar wrapping around the fenders that accentuates the car's width, and the open rear fascia does away with actual grilles in the name of weight-saving—and, of course, artistically exposed mechanical components.

Speaking of innards, the way the roll cage is designed means there is no passenger seat, while ambient lighting can be set to match the color-adjustable headlights. Side mirrors have also been chucked for three cameras feeding into the cockpit to make it that much slipperier. There's also no air-conditioning, but the driver's seat is ventilated to compensate.
