While we are posting cool 944 pics, here is one that is a piece of history:

You've spent so much time around these cars and you have yet to learn what a nose penal is?

Anyone seen a front end like this?

Here is the gulf blue 951.



It was painted by the same guy that painted the 28 951. The 28 car is is personal car.

Motor was done by technodyne and is a 2.5L garrett turbo car with something around to 400 hp. He reciently redid the body on the car and wend to a silver color with GT3RS style air intakes. It was a full steel wide bodied car. Now it has some fiberglass.

Nose panel is vented the easy way. By drilling some round holes.

The gulf 951 is standard bodied car with power in lower 300's. Still a fast car.

The green 944 in the backgroud is spec-944.

Why is the headlight duct thingy only on one headlite? SHouldnt it be on both? Also, the color scheme. red blue and orange, are the colors of the Armenian national flag, dont know if that means anything or if its just some useless information or a coincidence, but it sure looks like a wavey flag.
