The Porsche 918 RSR can be considered the queen of the 2011 Detroit Auto Show - and it’s definitely a treat for those going to see what Porsche has in store for its super racing models of the future. The combination of the design of the 918 Spyder concept and the technology of the 911 Gt3 R Hybrid is almost too much to take in, but as revealed in the preview Detroit 918 RSR presentation video after the jump, Porsche has proved it is still at the cutting edge of racing technology. They say that this model was born not as a coupĂ© or spyder concept, but as a super sports car project. The official 918 RSR racing lab video is above and despite the hyberbole, it shows just how convinced Porsche is that hybrid technology can fit its racing tradition and history.
