Actually I was looking through the SCCA FastTrack magazine last month, and a 944 won a RallyCross event somewhere. Was going to post here asking who it was... but I think we figured out now that there is a Porsche Ricky Bobby around here somewhere!

Hey, the engine was rebuilt 50 laps ago.......

Then again, it's raced for 50 laps in the dirt, with no air filter......

Well we can't really say there's no air filter, hopefully that flex hose is routed to a better spot for a filter.

Come on guys, nobody here likes to play in the dirt? I think it would make a fun (although not very competitive without AWD) rally car.

apparently some of you guys don't have local 4 banger dirt track classes. Is the latest trend here.... lots of cavaliers, neons, and the like gutted and safety gear added to go racing. THEY GET ROUGH on the track - tons of fun. Looks like all fun to me. Though I don't know of any class around here for rwd 4cyl

I think you're just afraid it would be faster than your spec car
