I plan to DE the car with PCA, and occasionally NASA.

Hey Brian, that would be fun. If you ever make it down this way, let me know!
James: I'm familiar. POC seems to be where all the super fast guys end up. I don't have a competition license yet, so I'm not concerned about competition just yet. Yes, the car will be registered and street driven in CA.

You are in the "golden age" of DE-racing......its fun, isn't silly expensive and not the pressure-cost of racing.....
The cost to operate a track car you drive to the track, have a blast, then go home is much lower than dedicated race cars...not just from the trailer-rig but the "arms race" of going faster that always comes with a towed car
The car will be PLENTY fast as is.....310+whp in a 2800lb-ish car is plenty to have fun....the only downside is a black 928 with no AC will get VERY hot going to summer events....
928's are plenty reliable on track....IF you have a proper oiling system.....OB pan is the bare minimum....OB pan + 3/8th spacer is better.....being close to Doc Brown is great too....my freshly rebuilt transmission is AMAZING...worth every penny!!!

I'm just thinking I add A/C even if its a trailer-ed car. Being cool make it enjoyable and not as much work.

You -can- fit 6 rims and tires into a 928 (sans interior). 
The back just fits two 235 and two 255 (Cup II 17").

Drove the car today, and all I can say is WOW! Anybody with an S3 needs to buy Ken's chips!
Ken couldn't be a nicer guy and I can't wait to get the car on track November 4th! Video to follow.

Please keep us posted with vids and updates....
I put the v4.0 chips in my car just before my first DE a couple of weeks ago and all the instructor kept saying (in disbelief) was, 'This is one powerful car.' and, 'This car has got a LOT of power.'
