Doesn't the GT3 weigh over 3000lbs? Lets just say 3300 with one human gas, and 409hp..... that's 8lbs hp.

You can have a civilized 911 that weighs 2300, so lets say 2550. You only need 320 or so HP to equal the power to weight ratio of a GT3. Not that is would be quite the same (less torque, more traction, electronic nannies, etc.), but I figure even with 275hp-300hp (easy to achieve reasonably) the excitment level in a truly lightweight car is going to trump the GT3 any day of the week, while also having much lower limits - safer and more fun on the street.

Anyway since you are smitten with the GT3, and havent driven one, I'm guessing the performance isn't the biggest quality you want to emulate. In that case absolutely yes you can capture the spirit of one with your car. And it can be a hot rod at the same time, can't it?

Mixed76 brings up the gearbox thing, too. I put close ratio gears in the Rot Rod (2nd and 3rd) and Project Heavy Metal (2nd, 3rd, 4th). I will tell anyone who will listen, this is absolutely the best thing you can do for your car.......
