With plenty of time before the 2005 racing season, Porsche took the wraps off of its new GT3 Cup racer, based on its updated 997-series 911 model. The stripped-down, high-performance GT3 is powered by a high-revving version of the 911's 3.6-liter flat six, with 400hp clocking in at 7,600rpm and a new sequential six-speed gearbox that allows for quicker full-throttle upshifts. The new model will also run exclusively in the 2005 Porsche Michelin Supercup.
