All good info, thanks!
Not a big deal since "Turbo" is thrown around too often describing wide-body Porsches regardless what's in their engine bay
...but I suspected that carThrottle.com was too cavalier in declaring 'chrome' a 993 Turbo.

I've kept up with some of your 'teaser' pics you've posted here & elsewhere,
but this is the first I've seen your machine on a track

How fast? How was the ride? Have fun!

You're welcome!

Yes, I agree, turbo is thrown around all to often, especially with the RWB cars. Especially with the younger crowd unfamiliar with the history of the cars. Heck, they look crazy enough, one would think they should be turbo.

The RWB is a lot of fun on track. That being said, it is a lot of fun for a street car Porsche. Not a race car by any means. I had recently installed my Aragosta coils and was just getting the feel for them during this event. I couldn't be happier with the car and look forward to many more events.
