Hos the roll is actually not that apparent from the inside. The roll feels much less than a stock 951 chassis.

Rolex thanks a lot mate, but those picture doesn't do the color justice at all so here's a better one

BTW just got back from the garage working on the race car.. added helper springs all around to the Leda chassis and did some minor tweaking. OMG how well it goes in the corners!

Duke: OH MY GOD! That color is just "stunning" pal! Jesus Christ...

I have to say, that is one of the most gorgeous colors on this car I ever seen in my life, ever.

Duke,

That is a pretty sweet color!

Hey, are those Ruf wheels? If so, what do they weigh? Everyone always claims that they're heavy but I've never heard a confirmed weight given.

Rewind a tad... I medically need to know what wheels those are on the black car originally posted! I have the Cup 2 wheels on mine and they look sh!te I need some deep dish wheels but till now havn't ever seen any Porsche wheels I like! (I feel its best to stick to Porsche wheels)

Thanks guys
Yeah the RUF's aren't lightweight but I have never put them on a scale so don't know exactly.
But yesterday I actually compared a loose 8" D90 rim with a 7" forged D90 wheel (with tire) and a 8" RUF with tire. The RUF felt marginally heavier and considering a bigger and wider wheel with a wider tire it was pretty ok.

But a loose D90 rim weighs nothing!

Ben - the wheels on the black car are turbo 3.6 replicas. Check out http://www.keskin-tuning.de/ ... not sure who deals them in the UK but maybe you can get them straight from Germany. HTH

Black cars with paint like that is almost unbeatable!
The replica wheels several of you have, they're 1-piece right?
How's the weight`?

Yes they are 1-piece wheels.They are a little bit heavier than 17" inch cup clones. Quality of this Keskin KT2 wheel is very good.
At the moment 4 of our "gangs" cars have them.
We have a set for sale if you are interested
