Porsche 2009 GT3 RSR

Porsche recently unveiled its latest GT2-class racing car, the GT3 RSR.The GT3 RSR is powered by a rear mounted six cylinder engine with displacement now up to 4-liters to the 3.8-liter of last year. What is baffling is that last years car produced 465hp@8000 rpm but this years car puts out 450hp@7,800rpm, the difference is not much and it could be down to sacrificing power for reliability.
