Are you going for class wins, PAX or TTOD? Will you drive the car to events or trailer it?

For the autocross a roll cage, wide fenders, etc are not required... Where are you with the 911, what modifications and tires are you using, and how much experience do you have with it so far?

The high polar moment of the 944 and low weight over the drive wheels makes it a difficult starting point for an autocross car- your 911 would start out with a number of advantages over it. Boxsters are getting cheap...

But I'm wondering if you shouldn't stick with the 911 for a while longer, depending on your goals, and perhaps make a few choice mods. A street driven 3.0L '69 with the right setup can be within a second or two of a GT-3 or well modified 914, ie it might grab TTOD on some days depending on the course and competition.
