In a thrilling interview at Sebring, Larry Chen dives into the world of GT3 cup cars with the knowledgeable Andy. The team is dominating the field with seven powerful Porsche cup cars, showcasing their expertise honed over 35 years in the business. The adrenaline is palpable as they introduce the brand-new 2024 model, pushing boundaries with cutting-edge technology and Yokohama Tires. This beast of a machine boasts a double Wishbone front suspension, revolutionizing the game with enhanced front grip and speed.

As they delve deeper, Andy unveils the heart of the beast - a 4L Flat 6 Street Car engine churning out a staggering 515 horsepower. The Cup cars are finely tuned for sprint racing, contrasting the endurance-focused GT3 R models. With nonadjustable dampers and spec spring rates, these cars are a force to be reckoned with on the track. Despite their blistering speed, they remain part of a spec series, ensuring nail-bitingly close races with no performance advantages.

The interview sheds light on the meticulous craftsmanship behind the GT3 Cup cars, from the flat bottom and diffuser to the straight pipe exhaust system. Andy reveals the intricate details of the engine bay, complete with ECUs, PDMS, and a spec camera system. The cars are a sight to behold, with an electronic shift system and an emergency escape hatch for unforeseen circumstances. Larry and Andy's discussion paints a vivid picture of the high-octane world of GT3 cup racing, where precision, power, and passion collide on the asphalt.
