Porsche 911 GT3 Manthey Kit Sets Faster Ring Lap
The Porsche 911 GT3 (992.2) with Manthey Kit has gone even faster on the Nordschleife. Under improved conditions, reigning DTM champion Ayhancan Güven beat the lap time he set last year. He completed the 20.832-kilometre Nordschleife in 6:50.863 minutes and outpaced the 911 GT3 with Manthey Kit from the 992.1 generation by 4.874 seconds. Porsche fitted the car with the optional Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tyres. A notary attended and verified the official lap time.
Porsche Centres worldwide now offer the Porsche 911 GT3 Manthey Kit. Porsche preserves the factory warranty.
Christoph Breuer, Director Road Cars of the Manthey Racing GmbH: "We’re thrilled that, under better conditions, we were able to beat our lap time once again with the 911 GT3 Manthey Kit. Ayhancan drove an amazing lap and proved once again what the Kit is capable of – being nearly five seconds faster than its predecessor is truly a testament to the development work and the creative collaboration with Porsche.”
Ayhancan Güven, Porsche works driver: “I’m really happy that we were finally able to demonstrate the true potential of the 911 GT3 with Manthey Kit on the Nordschleife. I really enjoyed the lap – it's such a great car to drive on this track! Since I usually do most of my laps here with the Grello, I have a high reference point. But in some sections of the track, the speed actually feels very similar, which is impressive and demonstrates how well the road cars and the Manthey Kits are developed.”
