When I had my alignment and corner balancing done my '93 C2 weighed 3045 lbs (~1384 kg). with a full tank of gas. The car has a Sunroof, A/C, and Electric Seats. Mods include: Cup 1 wheels, BFG Rivals (255x40 rears, 225x45 fronts), KW V3s, RS Clutch, LW Flywheel, Wevo Engine Mounts, G-Pipe, and Engine tray removed.

I finally installed 964 KW V3 Clubsport with 993 brakes and Patrick Motorsport 993 RSR uprights, the suspension is great and gives me a lot of confidence, very hard but still streetable.

Pictures from last weekend at Portimao, one of the best tracks in Europe, it really feels like a roller coaster, all the time going uphill or downhill between turns but with a lot of safety, in opposition to Nurburgring.

I was the poor one of a bunch of Spanish friends, all the rest driving GT3s or Turbos and I am improving the old 964 every time to keep their pace and I have almost got it. Nest time I will use slicks and then I will be in the same timings.

My 964 is a RHD because I purchased the cheapest one from an English fellow in Marbella returning to the UK. I completelly stripped it down and upgrade it to 3.8.

and how do you like the other side driving thing...i would think on a track it would be much easier to adapt...no oncoming traffic to think about, i'm thinking the savings might really be an attractive benefit to consider... nice nice nice car and in spain...! gotta be good...i am tiring of northern europe's wintertime and fuglyness on the hiways...unlimited autobahn driving is a hype...

OK, I will start a thread with all the history and mods...

You get accostumed very quickly to a RHD. I do not usually drive it through normal roads, too many radars and people driving too badly in Spain. So most of the time it´s mountain roads and circuits where you can still speed up as much as you want.
