1 Min Read

The Porsche 911 GT2 RS has set another lap record at a world-famous racetrack. This time, a 911 GT2 RS equipped with the Manthey Racing kit beat the McLaren Senna’s record at the Interlagos circuit in Brazil.

The 911 GT2 RS MR lapped the track in 1 min 36.967 seconds. That’s almost a second faster than the Senna’s record of 1 min 37.856 seconds, which was set back in 2022.

It is powered by a 3.8-liter flat 6-cylinder engine that delivers 700 hp and 553 lb-ft of torque to the rear axle. The Manthey Racing upgrade package gives it slightly more downforce than the standard car. It also has upgraded brakes and suspension.
