Another 2.8L on eBay - Lots of RWHP!
#63
Rolex, I'm taking it to the auction and seeing what it goes for. If it's a good price, it's gonna go. I am starting to expand my business and need the capital. I'm a car fanatic and will get another toy. If my business takes off I'm going for an Aero SC 8T. Made by Shelby Super Cars. 908 hp, all american super car. Uses a Porsche six speed tranny so I'm not leaving the mark completely. That's the dream anyway.

pk951: I am just curious, why did you mention MySwiss? I am not disagreeing with you at all, that is one of the most fabulous 2.5L cars ever built. I guess you just wanted to remind everyone that his is impressive too beside Special Tool's?
dougoh: Yes I am a member of PCA of northern, NJ. However, more than likely I won't be able to make it. I have a lot going on now personally. I wish I could, but it ain't going to happen. If anything changes, I'll let you know. I'd love to track my car too, but for me, Watkins Glen is my favorite local (4 hrs away) track, not so much Summit Point.
DFASTEST951: Well, it's going to be sad to see that car go. I just hope whoever buys it "really" knows what they are getting, ya know? And hey, best wishes with expanding the business too. Also, if you ever get one of those other monster super-cars, let us know. If so, then I might have to make a trip out there and see if I can get some seat time and do the Vegas Speedway Track, never did an oval before. Would be kool though, kind of like testing an Indy Car, even though I am a pure F1 guy all the way!

if the seller of this car actually knew about rennlist he would prolly be mortifed at this point
Hos sorry for blowing up at you. Like I said your just rubbing me the wrong way lately...maybe I am being way too sensitive and need to take a chill pill. Right now I have a nice Shiner in my hand and taking it easy.

pk951: Thanks for the compliment. Well, let's just wait and see if/when I get that hotwire piece I need. If so, then watch out baby, it's time to crank up the boost!

Dfastest, Rolex and you other guys with the 400+ HP cars have you ever run a 60-130 mph? Let us know. It would be nice to get an idea of what a high powered 951 can do.
You see lot's of dyno's on the Rennlist but never any times and times are much more important because they tell the truth.

blitz951: Sorry dude, I'm not into any kind of drag strip run/quarter mile stuff. I am a hardcore road racer to the bone. And I couldn't give you track times with my car because I never tracked it.

Any one of those cars that pull 400 to the wheels are fast 60 130 on the road.
I am only at about 325 whp i find the car fast it still pulls hard at 220km.
Ed Man did 1/4 mile in 12.6 that's not to bad for these cars there not easy to launch.
