The Racer's Group, a Californian team racing since 1995. The “weapon” at hand is a Porsche 996 GT3 RS. By 2002 the team was noticed enough by Porsche that it gained support from the factory to run in the Rolex 24 at Daytona. In this eighth try, they finally won their class. This shot represents the team's run for the 2003 Rolex 24 at Daytona. Here, drivers Kevin Buckler, Michael Schrom, Timo Bernhard and Jörg Bergmeister not only won their class but they also beat the more powerful prototypes for the overall win.

the wall of awesomeness that is this thread never fails to give my heart a little jump.


^making me want to not post this one:

If i owned a supercar the temptation to drive the hell out of it would one day over come me and i'd push it to the limit...this would be the scene when i arrive home...the car calmly cooling down in the shade as the night draws in and the moon comes out.

Needs to be viewed full size as it looks really dark in the thumbnail!

Another quick edit...:ouch:
 

Among all classic road going Porsches, the most desirable is probably the 1973 911 Carrera RS (Rennsport). It was the result of Porsche’s need to homologate the car for FIA Group 4 Special GT racing with a minimum of 500 cars. Customer sales were so great, that they eventually made 1,580 units. The RS came in 4 flavors: RSH (2,117lbs/960kg), RS Sport (2,150lbs/975kg), RS Touring (2,370lbs/1,075kg) and of course, the full-blown racer RSR. The model range was basically a development of the then current Carrera S through various changes in materials, brakes, suspension, bodywork/trim, wheels/tires, aerodynamics and transmission among others. RS’s are easily identified by their “Carrera” script on the side of the car and their “ducktail” rear spoiler. But, its most notable improvement was its engine. Capacity was bored from 2.3L to 2.7L developing 210bph, up from 190bph.
