Default My Cup tribute - update

Many of you have seen pics and info about my car but it’s been a while. And there are now other builds with a similar spec, like Spyrex car so I thought I could be fun with an update. The overall goal with this car was to build a Cup tribute more than a super correct replica. But the parts should be Porsche and as Cup or better. So many details are from Cup, but also RSR/Turbo or aftermarket if OEM parts are out of stock. I also want a “factory feel” meaning no flimsy plastic parts and everything is nicely done. It’s still road legal but very few miles on the road nowadays, 90% track use and it goes there on a trailer. The design/Wrap is new for this season. Enjoy pics and spec!......and yes...it drives like a dream!

I love it! Looks like are weight differences are probably due to the AC (that I kept)

My next step is re-gear my trans. Soon...

Thanks for your kind words guys! Glad you like it!

yes Roland, that could be something!. I visit the Ring almost every fall but not this year because the rennsport reunion was the priority. We are some 964 guys always doing a “fall tripp” going south and drive some of the Euro tracks like Hockenheim (my favourite), blister berg, zandvoort, spa etc and on these trips we always make a stop at the Ring.

except zandvoort (still quite far away from Frankfurt), id did every track quite often this year.... Hockenheim "lost" the short circut, because of construction work in the infield.... The GP track is not so exciting with the 64er is thing... Bilster Berg is great with a group of aircooled cars.. did this twice this year.... Spa... i am not fully convinced of Spa yet... But the Ring... did 5 oder 6 days this year and now i guess i found the tricks to be fast (or better, not still that slow) there....
