Of course all other things being equal, a 231hp Carrera will leave a 150hp 2.7 a long way behind in any kind of race. If you are suggesting otherwise, you are deluded.
I'm not suggesting, I did it and mine is not stock HP I would like to do a 3.2 upgrade sometime but that wont be stock either I dont wish to have a "sheep in wolf clothing" I once had a guy in an 84 85 corvette challenge me to a race I said okay and told him all he had to do was stay in my rear view mirror going up Tanalus drive in Honolulu and he won when he finally caught up to me I was out of my car and had lit up my pipe he didn't even stop he just ducked his head and drove on by. Oh by the way your car looks nice.

Here are a few shots of mine. It is getting close to completion. Well I guess it never will be done...












Of course I cannot neglect the other rear engined girl, she is sensitive after all.

Sexy car. It'd handle even more amazing if you drop it to euro height, you look like you got plenty room there.

Friends:

There's more than one way to skin a cat.

Why add flares to make your 911 wider? There's another way.

Back in the free-thinking '70s, the dreaded Alan Fritze and Pelikaner Grady Clay took an innocent Targa, applied a Sawzall to the centerline of the entire body/chassis, cut it from spoiler to rear bumper, then moved the two halves four inches apart!

Unfortunately the resulting gap remained unfilled, so the project was never completed. I have incriminating photos somewhere...

My 81SC, that is now being tranformed into a turbo rebuild, hopefully will have her back on the roads in 6~9 months.

Has any one added reverse lights to the R lights last I saw you had to put reverse somewhere not in the lights you get?
