Such a beauty!! Congratulations!!

Fighting a well driven 991RS is very difficult* but at the end of the day you have an individual true driver's machine and not a modern easy car.

Two questions:

1) More specs of your cf doors?? Do you have side cage and they are race doors, or are there built-in side protection bars in the doors? I know only couple cars in this forum with street legal cf doors in these cars, and that is pretty rate!! Great mod there, they are an awesome mod to save weight without going all crazy with the cage...I am really interested but haven't done them yet. At same time could remove door panels stuff and save good amount of kilos, 20 for doors and 10 for panels or something. That's 66lbs without needing full cage, and that's a lot of weight if you have done all the basics already.

2) What are your spring rates for KW Competition 3, have you tested different ones? I will be getting mine next week...

Thanks!



*vast majority of them are driven slowly

Sounds like a fun track toy. Do you know how much power the 4.0l delivers?

I have a 996gt3 track toy with stock engine and a 997rs4.0l. always thought the combo of the 996gt3 and the 4.0l would be epic.

500 HP in a 996 chassis! Awesome.

Would also like to know more about the CF doors. I would have done this mod by now as the weight savings are huge but the lack of side intrusion bars has put me off.
