960: The Next Supercar from Porsche?
#62
Mid Week Motorsport indicated that there is a rumor that Porsche AG will not have a factory works effort for the 991 RSR for 2016. They will be supporting customer teams and will be developing a new car for 2017. Looks like it might be the 960! In light of the new 991 GT3R being developed for customer sprint racing - it would make sense that for the factory effort they will develop a new car to meet the new ACO/FIA regulations and increased competition for endurance GT racing.

960: The Next Supercar from Porsche?
Thanks for the super interesting reading while heading out into the wild with (just...not!) my woman and a pack, but dreaming of the next drive...

Looks like there's some possible movement on the 960 front...

i got my feet wet on this wide curvy road up from Doug's house doing these wide, sweeping, 300' burnouts...
the other morning i took her into the parking lot at Dillard's in the wee hours and did some donuts at 55mph in the empty lot.
i wonder if the 960 could surpass the easy feeling of my 3,100lb castoff in full drift.
