I can't imagine what it feels like moments before you are about to punch holes into the car to mount that thing.

Damian.
Have you got any other pics of that car.
It looks like a real "track rat" ,.
I wonder if the rear wing actually makes any difference. Downforce.????

Good eye. Non sunroof car with cage, light weight hood etc.
The car next to it looks to have a 968 turbo S rear wing as well.

It's was based on a 1993 Club Sport number 76 so was a very early one with 993 big red brakes, 40% LSD. The car is not a dedicated track car but used 50/50 road and track.

Full information can be found here: http://www.dia-team.no/porsche/

Cheers,
Mark

Yes, they make a real difference but must be balanced by the correct size front splitter, as seen in the second set of photos.

I don't like it either.

How can it be considered a street car at all with windows that don't roll down?
