Record Drive for Techart GT Street RS

After securing a new speed record for fullsize-SUVs at the High Speed Event in Nardo/Italy at the beginning of December 2009, the tuners at Techart Automobildesign broke the former lap record at the Sachsenring race track. The performance was achieved with their GT Street RS vehicle, based on the Porsche 911 GT2.

Before the record drive on the 3,671-meter circuit in the comparison carried out by AutoBild SPORTSCARS, the GT Street RS have already demonstrated its sprinter qualities by getting to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds.

Furthermore, the sports car achieved a 36-yard braking distance at a speed of 100 km/h. According to its creators, these performance figures were due to the TÜV-tested and approved components as well as OEM quality of the vehicle.

For the conclusion of the extensive test program, the TECHART GT Street RS was able to crown once more the performance achieved on this day. With a lap time of 1:31.94 min, the winner of the Tuner Grand Prix 2008 and 2009 repeatedly demonstrated the TECHART winning gene," a company statement reads.

"With more than 1.95 sec of head start, it left not only the competitors far behind, but improved the current AutoBild SPORTSCARS lap record at the Sachsenring by an unprecedented 4.47 sec.“
