Great sound and pretty quick given lack of AWD and the snowy road. Ahh the advantages of a rear engined car. And hey water cooled engines don't sound so bad after all . Thanks st-anger .

cool vid. nice to see a porsche rallying, but with rwd the gt3 seems to only be able to squirt on the power then keep backing off. the turbo's awd system would probably make a big difference

wow, that's incredible. very nice stats too - i'm impressed that it's rwd and rallying. that throttle response is so quintessentially porsche tho - so quick and distinct. great sounds.
