"Porsche’s new 991-based GTE contender broke cover today at Sebring as it prepares for the start of the FIA World Endurance Championship.

Reports indicate the new-generation 991 turned its first laps shortly after 9 a.m. ET, making short five-lap stints with lap times in the 2:05 range. It's expected a more aggressive testing program will ramp up this afternoon."

Yum indeed!

What do reckon, can this take it to the Fezzas? Is it a level playing field rules-wise this year?

Some strange aero going on in the open section below the rear bumper.

The 997 was the same with the exposed rear tyres. I like it. Like looking up a hot birds skirt. Or something.

Looks like the old GT1 from the front and the mirrors , very wide track at the front as well possibly the widest front to rear track of any Porsche racer.
