2026 Porsche 911 GT3 Manthey Performance Kit - Nürburgring Nordschleife - 6:52.981 - Ayhancan Güven - Onboard
21/11/2025 - Hardly any other production car is used by its customers as often on track days as the Porsche 911 GT3. With the new Manthey Kit, Porsche offers high-performance components that go beyond the level of the Weissach Package – specifically aimed at customers with a keen passion for driving on track. These include extensively revised, particularly efficient aerodynamics with significantly increased downforce, modified suspension and optimised brake components. The 911 GT3 lapped the Nürburgring’s Nordschleife in 6:52.981 minutes – about 2.8 seconds faster than its predecessor with the Manthey Kit.
Porsche offers a Manthey kit for the current 911 GT3 (992.2) for even better performance on the racetrack. The kit provides significantly more downforce and, as a result, increased cornering speeds. The suspension has been specially adapted for track use and the brakes are designed for the particularly high demands of track days. The new Manthey Kit was developed in close collaboration between the Porsche Development Centre in Weissach and the Manthey engineers in Meuspath. The components, which are optimised for circuit use, are sold through Porsche Centres worldwide.
2018 Manthey-Racing Porsche 911 GT2 RS MR - Nürburgring Nordschleife - 6:40.33 Record Lap - Lars Kern - Onboard
Stuttgart. Porsche has set another new record on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife in cooperation with Manthey-Racing. On Thursday, 25 October 2018, the Porsche GT2 RS MR with 515 kW (700 hp) completed a lap of the 20.6-kilometre long circuit in 6:40.3 minutes. No other road-legal vehicle has ever been so fast on ‘The Green Hell’ track. Lars Kern was at the wheel of the sports car, which had been especially set up for the ‘Nordschleife’ by Porsche engineers and Manthey-Racing experts. The Porsche test driver already set a lap record in September 2017 in a series-production Porsche 911 GT2 RS*.
“We kept our eye on the weather all day and thought hard about whether such a drive was possible. We would not have taken any risks if it was raining or if the track was slightly damp,” says Dr. Frank-Steffen Walliser, Head of Motorsport and GT Cars. The Porsche 911 GT2 RS was equipped with the new performance kit from Manthey-Racing, supplemented by an overall vehicle setup tailored to the circuit characteristics of the Nürburgring-Norschleife. “In this test drive, we simply wanted to assess the potential of the vehicle once more. The result is quite impressive. It really is a fabulous time. This shows again very clearly the exciting possibilities of this sports car.”
