The car is covered on Puppans website, www.puppan.se. In short it is a turbo Cup with a 3 liter 8 valve engine, Leda suspension, Toyo tires and it has a Nira i3 engine management system.

The test has been done exactly the same way for a few years and the Magazine tester is a Swedish Rally driver with the nickname "Gullabo". If you check out the results list you can see that he has driven most of the cars and he is a skilled driver but does not get along very well with the 911's.

Regarding the Nira i3 I have the first one of those in the US sitting on my desk and I am hoping that it will be installed in a DEVEK-car soon.

SICK!!!!

Very impressive but some of those #'s don't jive... a little OT, but he beat a 996 by 1/2 sec., which beat a 996 Turbo by 1.5 sec., which beat a GT3 by 2 more seconds??? Hmmm...
It is very very possible that a 951 is fast and out handles 911's and gt3's with the drive upgrade, and driver ability 911's can't stay with 951s .

The track is always the same, but the cars, tires, drivers, suspension parts, upgrades and the wheather are all factors to take into account.

That car is impressive as well, a dedicated racecar on slicks however and not a street legal car like the 944. Here is a video of Mohlin in action:
