2008 and its motorsport season is only a matter of weeks away and Porsche {link} have great plans for their latest GT3 Cup car. Designed primarily for use in the Mobil 1 Supercup and the various national series the new GT3 Cup car is a logical improvement from the 2007 model. Fine detail changes have helped increase performance, the most obvious of which is increased cooling vents at the rear. The 3.6 litre flat six now produces 420PS, which is transferred through a revised 6 speed sequential gearbox that offers seamless, flat shifting. Thanks to the increased power the Porsche GT3 Cup car now has a power to weight ratio of 2.7kg/kilo.
The 26 Mobil Supercup GT3 Cup cars benefit from a revised exhaust system and PCCB ceramic brakes to increase their performance and noise in line with their Formula One supporting rol
Porsche are planning to build a record 265 GT3 Cup cars this year at their recently improved motorsport headquarters in Weissach, near Stuttgart in Germany.
