Porsche’s new 911 RSR debutsat Daytona for the Rolex 24-hour race…
Ahead of the IMSA Weather Tech SportsCar Championship, Porsche took part in a test event dubbed ‘The Roar before the Rolex 24’, at the Daytona International Speedway in the USA. The test proved successful for the new 911 racer, which will have made its debut at the race proper by the time you read this issue.
The season-opening round of the IMSA SportsCar Championship, which takes place in the USA and Canada, marks the start of Porsche’s Works-backed 2017 motorsport season. It’s the first race for the all new 911 RSR, too. Changeable weather conditions failed to halt the team’s test programme that saw it cover a total of 2,936 kilometres at Daytona.
