I used to live about 15 minutes from the Brands Hatch circuit - used to love track days there....

Wish I'd have seen this there. Not a great driver, but definitely a great car.

Holy crap that was awesome...can't believe he was driving it that hard with it being so new and in all the seemingly inexperienced traffic. One of my favorite youtubes of all time

The driver of the 9m93RS clubsport Widebody at Brands was Calum Lockie: http://www.calumlockie.com/
The owner threw him the keys for him to "do a couple of laps and see what it's like" for a late afternoon session. We donated 20 litres of Shell's finest to the cause and then watched Calum play for 25 minutes until the red flag went out to spoil his fun.

The car's now back at 9m for a winter freshen up. We're just waiting on a set of the new 9m lightweight steel rods, once they arrive we'll be stripping the engine, dropping in a 997GT3 crank, fitting the new 9m high lift vavle train and hopefully squeezing an extra 30hp & adding 500rpm to the rev limit.

Seemed like several cars (drivers) saw the 993 in their rear view and discounted it....but when the 993 was about to go up their ***, they finally decided, "Hmmm?!?! Guess I better move out the way."

Of course.

Quite possibly my favorite 993 EVER.
