That's not a typo. My Turbo Cup car, bought new from Porsche Motorsport North American in 1987, doesn't get out much!

Yesterday was gorgeous here in Cincinnati, so got it out and drove up to Dayton with a buddy for a Marion's Pizza. (Pretty good, but not great. Should have done Cassano's or the Miamisburg Hamburger Wagon).

Here's the car getting put back away 'til next spring.

That's a fantastic car! Also, I'm intrigued to know that there's such a thing as a hamburger stand. What is it? On a more related note, how many times have you changed the belts?

They come with pickle and onion. There is no ketchup/catsup or mustard, and they'd probably laugh if you asked.

I've changed the belts twice.

Beautiful car!!! +1 to the more pics.

Also, what are the differences between your Cup car and the regular turbo? My guess would be less weight, roll bar, harder suspension and maybe some more hp.

Wow, that is outstanding. Thanks for sharing.

Still run an Escort detector? I have a vintage Passport I still use...

My favorite Pizza in Ohio is Tommy's Pizza in Columbus, on Lane Avenue. Outstanding!!
