They are secretive but their cars can often be found in police impound lots. Just look for a news story about "Multiple Street Racers Arrested" and then look for a towing company that works for the Hwy Patrol.

Check the photo below. The discussion was pretty funny; can't find it now. Thax for letting us have a little fun with your question.

I truly don't know the answer. I could find out, but it's not my story to tell.

You have to know the secret handshake.

My build I would rather unveil when finished, but the basis is a 3.3L, Turbocharged engine, based on Aluminum case, Carrillo Rods, Custom Ross Forged Pistons, Inconel exhaust valves and such!

Thanks for letting me know, it requires a special handshake! Hearing about the handshake in consideration of an all male attendance??? I'll pass if they are that exclusive!
That is not what I meant!

I won't ask about them again! The end!
You'd want to be in this merry band of misfits..

Like many other things, it started off well, then went off the road.

This I have learn more about this R Gruppe than I care to know! I have been told that most don't build their own engines anyways! Most are a bunch of bolt on guys! They do tend to snub woman, and since the gal I see would take the keys to whatever and drive it there after cheering for her favorites in F1, or other racing series (she hates NASCAR), if she isn't accepted driving up in an early modified 911, then they must be a bunch of questionable fellows!

I could see the point of running Roads and Canyons (which I "used" to do with both my Porsches and my Road Race Corvettes!) and not wanting to advertise that for protection from the Law (most of my Cars are an instant impound- type of rides), but members only events sounds like a bunch of #??%&??@! to me! I welcome anyone that wants to talk engines, specs, builds and Porsche history in general!

Well, at near 500+hp targeted, I hope to run across them on the road one day!

To share the Porsche hobby, here are some shots of the last event I attended!
So if you run across "them" on the road one of these days,
what do you think you could possibly do???
See who will race you???...
whatever it maybe, I can assure you someone will take you up on it .......
