Gruppe B?

[thrown_hammer]

Don’t forget about the extremely out of control GruppeB-tul!!!

I believe so far we only have one member in this Splinter Cell…..

[Paul Franssen]

I had the opportunity of meeting up with a master class Gruppe B representative, K9Handler on this site, at his home unit in Germany. No beer was refused which, with hindsight, was an absolute win-win.
K9 (or rather, Handler) ran a remastered 3.6 litered early year Porksche, in actual true fact, he didn't, due to his master craftsman wrench being busy elsewhere in the land of Teutons.

My observation (not sponsored by that gruppe) is that they are motivated by the statement "Ask not, Gentlemen, what your Porksche can do for you, ask what you can do to your Porksche".

I wish them fortitude and many years of 911 brotherhood!

Shawn, I love the bug. Post more pics soon, looks like something I may create in my near future. How did it fair off road? Later, Rick

Think 83 cab, with a 73RS body backdate and a 93 3.6 engine and you might be close....

I have always found it easier to explain something with pictures, so I have compiled this group of what Gruppe B is.

What is GruppeB? Whoa boy….. If you refuse to take out the gas tank when you weld in your front pan, if you make your own steel track wheels, if you take an early car and make it into an RSR slantnose, if you own a Targa and admit it openly, If you paint your car in the garage with no fear of plastic shrink wrap implosion, if you have ever been to a Bonfire of Doom!!!, if you think flat black is a perfectly acceptable color for a Porsche, if you wake up in your car with a giant pink cat head, these are just some indicators that you may be GruppeB material…..

no one's mentioned the sawzall yet!

I was thinking the same thing. Sawsall ownership is a fundamental Gruppe B requirement. How you use it is not as important. We trust you.

[vanwyk4257]

Gruppe B checklist:

1. Sawzall, check

2. Assorted large hammers, check

3. Air tools, check

4. 6-ton jack stands, check

5. Cutting torch, (gotta get one, not sure why)

6. Drills for polishing parts and lightening metal, check

7. Case of Guinness, chilled, check!

I love the fact that Pelican considers this thread about a Gruppe with the wrong letter (wink) to have no technical input and moves it to the OT section but lets thread Cayman to Gayman stay. It always good to know where you stand, right below tasteless homosexual comments...

[Joe Bob]

We also have bigger than average winkies....unless yer name is Mull.

...if you transport a 915 gearbox on the undercarraige of your airplane, you might be GruppeB material

...if your annual RC porsche race usually turns into a smokey pile of melted plastic, you might be GruppeB material

...if the names "Hammer", "Soukus", "Otto", or "Young Jedi" are common on your tongue, you might be GruppeB material

...if you've ever seen Josh in a superman outfit, you might be GruppeB material

...if the words "Numbers Matching" make you roll your eyes, you might be GruppeB material

[Joe Bob]

You say Concour Weenie....and you emphasize weenie....

[MichiganMat]

LOL. Classic. I love it.

If you've ever riveted fenders to your 911, you might be Gruppe-B material.

If you've ever transported a 911 in the bed of your pick-up, you might be Gruppe-B material

Hey, don't forget to add Channel-Locks to your list required tools!
