Sorry to say but I've always thought this 'thing' is a mess. I know of a few people that have had some influence or components on this car but to me it looks like a 'special'. Cobbled together and probably pretty fast but it's somewhat of a Frankencar. There's some nice bits and pieces on it but glad it's not mine. The aero is poor.

Dave Smith has been ironing out the details on this one and there are a lot of trick parts which take a while to really fine tune.
Hmmm....now that it is in a Hugo Boos livery does that mean that the Jager cooler/dispenser has been taken out of the transporter? Probably not since the same owner now has a Jager 911 to add to his Blue Coral 911....

Yeah I know a bit about that car Chris. Not knocking it to be mean. Just felt like for the amount of potential it could have it comes up a little disappointing at least appearance/aero wise. I know that may be the 'Pot calling the Kettle Black' in some people's eyes. I have to live with my decision which is only one person's opinion anyway.

Last year a class winning 914-6 race car turned a 2:30 lap into a win (small class) - Stock class 944 turbos run 2:13s in Porches club racing, A well driver 911 cup car can get down to a 1:55.....so a 914-6 race car (lightened, race motor, suspension upgrades) turning a 2:30 is really silly. My cool down laps are quicker than that!

Wow...interesting. I guess with such a large population comes a huge range of racing. Hey at least they're out there and having fun but, yes I sometimes see laptimes down here and wonder what the guys are getting out of it. If they're happy that's the bottom line.
