Ever since the fi rst model in 1973, the iconic 911 Rennsport was built to go racing. The efforts to improve on the 911’s greatness at Weissach has long been fruitful: the RS can claim wins at legendary events all around the world including Le Mans, the Targa Florio, Daytona, Sebring and even in rallying. It is thanks to these successes that road-going Rennsports are held in such high esteem by enthusiasts today. Of course, the 911 RS has evolved substantially since its inception more than four decades ago. There are now twelve scintillating Rennsport generations on the road, with the latest in the 991 GT3 RS boasting more than double the power of the first model, the 2.7 Carrera RS. Like the 911 itself, each new generation of Rennsport has sought to push the boundaries in performance capabilities. Each is faster and more powerful than the generation before it, with exceptional handling helping to deliver the ultimate experience at the wheel of a Porsche. Perhaps the best thing about a Rennsport is that it’s permitted to take to the street. A true racer for the road, the latest 991 generation is, according to Le Mans winner Nick Tandy, the closest thing to a Cup car he’s ever experienced – and yet its proud owner can still drive to the shops or the cinema in comfort and style, exactly as the 911’s creator, Butzi Porsche, intended. The RS then is the Porsche 911 in its most exhilarating form, and this book presents only the very best, in lavish detail. Performance driving has never been so fun.
