Stephan Jocher driving his Blue, 2004, Porsche 996 GT3 RSR during the Qualifying Session, for the Aston Martin Trophy for Masters Endurance Legends


The 2001 996 GT3 RS won the GTO Class in the 2001 British GT Championship at the hands of Parr Motorsport's Kelvin Burt and Marino Franchitti with 109 points. The 2004 Porsche 911 996 GT3 RSR was essentially an upgraded version of the motorsports oriented GT3 RS. It was the ultimate development of the 996 GT3 featuring a 331 kW (450 PS; 444 hp) flat-6 engine and a 6-speed sequential manual transmission. Reduction in weight was achieved by employing carbon fibre panels. Only 37 cars were built. Accolades of the RSR include three victories in American LeMans Series GT2 class
