The 4.68 metre long and 2.02 metre wide monster, which has already made a splash in Monte Carlo, in Spa, and
on the "ring" is powered by a 5.0 litre V10 BMW engine with 7-speed SMG transmission or - optionally - with
manual 6- speed transmission. With an engine speed of 7,500 rpm and a power-weight ratio of 2.9 kg/kW, the RS
III achieves a top performance of 373 kW (507 hp) and thus a top speed of 347 km/h.
The complete bodywork comprises an ultra-light carbon racing skin and is produced in a Formula I forge. In
addition to the 4-point H-type seatbelts, a tube frame developed by the Vermot AG engineers guarantees
occupants the highest level of passive safety on their modified Recaro full bucket seats. A new braking
system from Brabham Racing provides for deceleration: six 380 mm pistons at the front and four 355 mm pistons
at the back forcefully slow the entire weight before the ceramic disk brakes abruptly bring the wheels to a
standstill - until the next kick start.
