Roock 997 Turbo RST Commemorates LeMans Win


Roock, the only German Porsche tuner with headquarters in the United States, has unveiled a new and extremely powerful addition to its lineup to commemorate its victory at LeMans: the Roock RST 600 LM. With 602 horsepower and 611 pound-feet of torque, the heavily modified 997 Turbo is surprisingly docile enough to be used as a daily driver but powerful enough to hold its own on the track. Reportedly, the Roock RST does the 0-60 mph in 3.1 seconds and hits a top speed of 212 mph.

Of the many modifications, some of the highlights include:
*Push-button ignition
*Ground effects, including a front splitter, rear diffuser and a rear spoiler
*Ultra-light racing wheels with Roock trademark carbon center caps
*Four-pad, redesigned brake system with 380mm crossdrilled and vented brake rotors and eight-piston calipers
*Roock-exclusive four-point harness seats
