For the time being, however, you can’t get your hands on this world-record holder on this side of the pond.

That said, the automaker told Road & Track that it is considering making the package available to U.S. The 911 GT2 RS can currently be outfitted with the Manthey Performance Kit through Porsche Tequipment at Porsche Centers across Europe. When you’re taking on a track as monstrous as the Nordschleife, that’s like a good thing. In this test drive, we simply wanted to assess the potential of the vehicle once more. The 911 GT2 RS was used in the Duality Cup available between September 20-26 2019. With impeccable driving capacity, the 911 GT2 RS takes you from 0-60 mph in a whopping 2.7 seconds and to a top track speed of 211 mph. Manthey Performance also fit the 911 GT2 RS with an additional water tank for the car’s intercooler sprayers, which increases overall capacity and allows for longer sessions on track between refills. The Porsche 911 GT2 RS was equipped with the new performance kit from Manthey-Racing, supplemented by an overall vehicle setup tailored to the circuit characteristics of the Nürburgring-Norschleife. The wheel and tire combo alone saves 25 pounds over a stock GT2 RS. Porsche itself tossed in a set of wheels from the Weissach Package, which come wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires. The kit also has three-way adjustable coilovers specifically designed for track-work, as well as some upgraded carbon stoppers at all four corners. This is achieved thanks to some new flaps on the front splitter, a new carbon underbody treatment, a modified rear diffuser, and aero covers for the rear wheels. The package features aerodynamic upgrades, which Porsche says increases downforce at 124 mph from 108 to 154 pounds at the nose, and from 205 to 441 pounds in the rear. The Manthey Performance Kit for the Porsche 911 GT2 RS has been further honed since it last made a record attempt, and is clearly even more effective than before.
