Post 911 Racing Car

Dear fellow P Nuts,

My 911 race car project is moving forward, however being a pilot project I am looking for as much info as possible.

Were can I find some GOOD pictures of 911/935/etc. racing cars, especially 'under the skin' technical pics of suspension and other vital components?

I've got the mandatory books, but it is nice to study from the www. I've been to the usual sites, so I'm looking for the secret gems!

The new car is a G-series shell, GRP lightweight 965 body, full cage, coil over and massive brakes. Engine is tbc (normal aspirated).

I want to cut as much of the front away as possible, however I need some ideas on how to mount the front lower suspension, ie. the A-arms. With no torsion bars I'll fabricate my own A-arms.

Ideas please gentlemen!

Regards Tom.

Go look at Gunnar Racing at www.gunnarracing.com, specifically at "projects" where they usually have alot of good detailed pictures of their various restoration projects. If you get bored with your project, they have two 908's, two 962's, and a 935 for sale, too.
