Goodwood Festival Of Speed has lived up to its name both on and off track, and the spotlight for shiny new things at the 2017 event has been stolen by this - the 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS.

Put simply, this is the most powerful road-going 911 ever built by the German carmaker, promising to lift the performance potential of the evergreen 911 to spectacular new heights.

Powered by a revised version of the twin-turbocharged 3.8 litre horizontally-opposed six-cylinder petrol engine that resides in the latest 911 Turbo, the new 1470kg coupe packs a heady 515kW, or some 59kW more than its seven-year-old predecessor.  

Also endowed with a stout 750Nm of torque, Porsche claims the new rear-wheel-drive 911 GT2 RS is capable of accelerating from rest to 100km/h some 0.1sec faster than the four-wheel-drive 911 Turbo S at an official 2.8 seconds.
