Competition sequential boxes generally have dog-clutches instead of synchroniser rings, so are prone to earlier wear than would be acceptable for road cars. Competition engines and gearboxes have to be stripped down and overhauled regularly anyway, so that isn't a problem in that context. 
There will be ways around that though for street applications, but maybe with some penalties in terms of complexity, weight, cost, or shift times.  Smiley

Yes, I assume that will be the case. They have to find a compromise, and that's definitely no easy task. I'm curious to see what they will come up with and how it will be received.

It's kind of exciting to see Porsche being so spirited and brave with the new 991 GT3 (RS). 

An absolute necessity in order to be able to homologate a competitive racing version of the car, I would have thought. Smiley
