My interpretation of whoopsys posts is that the 992 launch tour will be in South Africa and then it'll be on display in Geneva

My interpretation is that a few of you guys keep referring to whoopsy’s comments which are in conflict with others who seem to also be insiders. We get it that you guys seem to think that whoopsy is some type of god. We’ll have to wait until the end of the month to see who had the best info.

Posting the complete rules would be to only way to lock this down... Several homologated class cars have had modified motors.. Same type, location... orientation does not specify stroke. Same always went for race bikes. The engine block was more or less the only "same type" part.

There is no need... no one believes the guy with a November 2018 join date and 3 posts, aka troll (maybe whoopsys burner account ).

Engines are modified in racing, even homolgated ones. Mostly to even out competition.

Hmm? So, if you're right, in relation to the Ginetta G55 GT4 homologated race car
https://european.gt4series.com/ginetta-g55-gt4
what Ginetta production road car with the same engine as the Ginetta G55 GT4 race car is the Ginetta G55 GT4 race car based on?

We are specifically talking about GT4 class and why the engine in the CS when shown later in December will give us assurance of what type of engine we are getting on the street car....that's the only reason this GT4 Race Classification issue is being discussed.
That's also why Whoopsy and TCSRACING probably have the best info out there on the engine we will get on the street car.

Maybe they will offer a "Porsche" logo delete option instead of the model delete........
