Here is a video about the (rather short) adventure of the Porsche at Rally Finland, including onboard footage:

Rally fantastic! I like it that they publish updates and videos. And the car looks just great. Hopefully they find a few customers who buy one and race it on the WRC and ERC rallies.

Very nice looking true racing car. 2wd hatchbacks must be replaced with this to make the sport more attractive.

As I don't know driving level of Tuthill, I will ask this way: Can we expect from him to be at least so fast as for example are Zeltner or Dobberkau? O

No since Tuthill has no expierience from many rallys, limeted FIA tyres and a very small restrictor since 2 days taking him more then 100hp i guess. FIA cutted the cars eggs.

100 hp less?? normal street 997 GT3 3.8l engine has 435 hp, so that means he is driving cca.350 hp? He will be beaten by faster R2 drivers....FIA made a mess, again....

Where is this information from? The car was prepared according to RGT regulations, I cannot imagine that they just overlooked something so massive and had to reduce 100hp in the last minute.

The info is from a team in the same service area. The way to get the documents (cost 8000 euros) seems to be a mess. Nobody cares obviously about the RGT regulations 3.4kg per hp. No written answer, only verbal orders At least the first 997 is running with a FIA sticker, to get it competitive (alone in class) will be part of the future. Under this circumstances other 997 teams will not start their homologation work.
