Reviving an old thread. Probably no longer pertinent but if anyone's still looking for info or pics I may be able help. I've got the #6 944GTR, it's been in storage for quite a few years but again could probably snag some detail pics if needed.

I’m sorry can you repeat that? Did my eyes read that right? #6 944 GTR in storage for years... not pertinent??? If so what Voith said. This is now one of the best thread resurrections ever!

The Bruce Jenner Car? I wrote an article on these cars for 000 Magazine, issue #8, for those interested. We dug up a ton of factory info and interviewed lots of the people involved in building and racing these cars back in the day, so the article has lots of never-before-seen stuff. Greg Brown, who is on rennlist, looks after 004, and is a walking encyclopedia (remember those) on these cars too...

Tom BIG thank you for the 000 article, such a joy to read! Those cars are just so right, really cool cars.

Hope new material rises in this thread👍

Yes, one of them, it was driven by I believe Chris Kniefel and maybe EFR but that's a little hazy. I'm certainly no encyclopedia on them and would like to read your article, do you have a link? I got the car back in the 90's for vintage racing mainly because I knew it was fast and after racing it several times can assure anyone it sure is : ) I had it at an HSR event at Daytona (which it is geared for) the only cars faster seemed to be 962's. Passing older prototypes on the back straight (March 83G, BMW M1, etc) and 935's wasn't an issue, keeping in mind it was a historic race.

Here is possibly a little known story I heard from Chuck Dressing (long time Brumos publicist) after I had the car. He was at Brainard (in '86?) when EFR won the pole and their only win (for the sister car #11). He said it was clocked on radar at 192mph the fastest speed ever for a Trans-Am car. He also said the aerodynamics is what gave it an edge in straight line speed. Whether that's held up or not I don't know.

Photos. I really don't have much, was just saying I might be able to take some for the OP if needed for his restoration/tribute, although that was years ago plus some detailed shots of the #11 were already posted above. Here's all I can find at the moment, currently squeezed in among other stuff (they're protecting it : )
