Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport confirmed
So perhaps this is what Andreas Preuninger meant about taking weight out of
the Cayman GT4. There isn't an RS - yet - but there will be a Clubsport, developed for club level motorsport and set for an LA show debut next month.As you might well have guessed, the spec for a GT4 racing car is very exciting. Weight is down to 1,300kg, there's a full welded-in cage and the 'lightweight suspension strut front axle' is taken from the 911 GT3 Cup. Brakes are steel, 380mm all round.

The GT4 Clubsport is described by Porsche as a 'near-standard racing version'. So that means the same 3.8-litre flat-six and manual gearbox of
the road car, right? Nearly. The 385hp engine is carried over unchanged but now the only gearbox option is a PDK. Oh. As purists it's hard to be a little sad at the news, but having paddles does at least mean the gearbox can't be lunched with a mistimed shift on track. It will of course make the GT4 Clubsport a little quicker as well.The aim for the Clubsport is have it homologated for racing in next year's Pirelli World Challenge, Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge and, the Pirelli GT3 Cup Trophy USA. It should be approved for club racing across the globe too but details have not been released yet. We're still without pics too, but those are promised on November 18 when the car is shown to the world.
As for actually buying a GT4 Clubsport after the huge demand of the road car, they are available to order now. Although given the press release was out half an hour ago, they could well be hard to come by... Make your enquiries at Porsche Motorsport in Weissach or California. More info as it's released!
