Porsche will pull the covers off its long awaited mid-engine 911 RSR on Wednesday NOV 16 2016 at the L.A. Auto Show. The German brand’s new pride and joy has been seen in testing at Sebring, and has been the subject of teaser posts by the marque, but details on the car – barring whatever stood out in the videos – have been kept under wraps.

Other than the sounds of its traditional flat-six engine and cooling changes to feed its first production-based 911 racecar featuring a mid-engine layout, the rest of the information on Porsche’s IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship GT Le Mans and FIA World Endurance Championship GTE-Pro factory entries will be revealed later this week.
