Would be great if the next issue of "Speedster" Magazine has the correct Singer on the cover:

Sonny ^^ I'm guessing since they're modifying existing 964s, not manufacturing new cars.
Best to ask RLer P1CR (Maz).

Speaking of which...
Maz! Any Singer Speedster plans & details?

When I see photos of 993s parked next to private jets, I feel I'm the poorest member of the 993 rennlist.

Eric-- Parking your 993 with others attracts such fanfare.

Those pesky jets saw us from 40,000 feet, & abruptly landed to check out the action ... much to their passengers' surprise

Likewise, when RLer P1CR was out driving his below 993, even a Singer tailgated him just to get a better view

Use LOTS of protective blue racing tape, like Dickie Meaden did for his Singer test drive

I wonder why he uses 964s instead of 993s.

Cannot turn a 993 into a Pre-impact style car (rear fender lines, etc)
