This car really took me back to the 80’s, looking with wonder in magazines at Koenig Ferraris, Tresser Audi Quattro’s and DP Porsche specials. Great video and lovely to see and hear the enthusiasm of the cars owner.

I’m gonna have to look up Tresser Audi’s and DP Porsche. I have this photo of a mechanic from Kremer, and he is working on the engine which has these insane Ram air ducts for the intake.. twin turbo of course…so, it has this serious metal frame that is added onto the rear frame of the car, and it has those round (pin receivers?) donut shaped pucks… for the massive rear wing and body rest on. I think they were saying that the GT3 RS wing can put down close to 1,2000 lbs of downforce. Story is… they drove that car to the race.. won, and drove it back to Kremer headquarters. Crazy
