Fastest most epic Transaxle racecar ever attempted

Dark Horse Cometh: RP 968 Porsche | World Time Attack Challenge

A friend's car built down here to compete in the World Time Attack Challenge. They're 'racing' the clock to get it finished for the event which starts Friday next week down here. https://www.facebook.com/WorldTimeAttack#!/WorldTimeAttack

This car should be comfortably 10 secs faster than a 991 Cup car on a 1:30 track...all on 295 R spec street legal tyres!!

I would love to have someone in my neck of the woods like this, it would be a dream. Amazing transformation and craftsmanship, a work of art.

Find it quite odd that the most spectacular (Porsche) Transaxle racecar ever built gets less than a handful of comments. I must be getting old....

Wake me when this car wins LeMans.

I would even settle for the 24 Hours of Daytona.

Touchè. Although, they would have to build a few more. As we know it takes 2 C7Rs to win an endurance race as there is a 50% chance as it will have major steering problems and crash into a wall*

*see 2015 12hrs of Sebring, 2015 24hrs of Le Mans
