In Its Icy Element<\/h2>\n

Porsche plans to return to rally racing with a 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport R-GT Rallye<\/a>.<\/strong> The car came about because of the positive response Porsche received on a rally car concept that it sent out into the world. Before the official car comes, Porsche did some testing with its 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport-based concept race car. The company let racing legend Walter R\u00f6hrl get behind the wheel at the GP Ice Race in Austria. <\/strong><\/p>\n

In the video below, you can see R\u00f6hrl whipping the car through the track on the very low traction surface.<\/strong> It’s a feat that not many of us could pull off. It’s simply a wonderful thing to see such a beautiful car handled with such finesse. Also, it helps that the vehicle sounds so beautiful. The car comes with a 3.8-liter flat-6 that makes 425 hp. <\/strong><\/p>\n
