Anyone have a part number for the Porsche Q/R? I would be interested in seeing what Sunset would sell it for since they seem to be by far the cheapest on other Porsche parts.

I just used a paint pen to line the two pieces up. Not a hassle at all. But you have to make sure you get it clicked all the way in. I had the wheel in my hands at speed on the front straight of Mid Ohio, once...

Not a track car per se, but I have an SPW QR that I like.

With the Momo adapter and the SPW quick release there is no need for a dished wheel or spacer.

All the ones that are splined or hex are strictly for show, no place for them in any car.

The Motorsport quick release is designed to be used with the same 6 bolt mounting arrangement that a Momo steering hub adapter has. The long hub adapter (from splines to 6 bolt mounting) is about 3" long and the short is about 2" long. Your 964 Cup car has a Momo steering wheel, or I should say that it came from the factory with a Momo steering wheel and hub adapter. If you use a seat with a halo, then you'll need to remove the steering wheel for ingress/egress on the driver's side. Using both the hub adapter and the quick release puts the steering wheel in a NASCAR position where, for me, at average height/weight it was too close. I cut the Momo adapter and machined a small 1/2" spacer/adapter to move the steering wheel farther away.
