The 991-based 911 RSR won't be around for too much longer. One would be wise to presume that a 992-based GTE racer is around the corner, perhaps for the 2022 racing season. But for 2021, the 991 is here to stay, and as such, the customer-spec FIA WEC GTE Am classed 911 RSR-19 is getting a few minor upgrades for the 2021 season. If you're a customer …

Testing the 911 GT1 Straßenversion on Slippery Scottish Roads
Take the front half of a street car, the rear half of a race car, fuse them in the center, eventually replace the headlights for a pair of "broken eggs" from a 996.1, and cloak the car in a mysterious aura.

In all the sports car races I've attended, it's usually the shrill scream of the RSR which forces me to cork my ears the most.
