Background[]
The Porsche 911 RSR is a racing car developed by Porsche to compete in the LM GTE categories of the Automobile Club de l'Ouest and GTLM of the International Motor Sports Association. It replaced the Porsche 911 RSR (991). The car was unveiled in November 2016 at the Los Angeles Auto Show. Unlike the lineage of the other 911 models, the engine is placed in front of the rear axle. Indeed, the LM GTE category allows optimization of the engine position. The 911 RSR clinched its first victory at the Northeast Grand Prix in July 2017 on Lime Rock Park.
