Would you take a fresh 317hp Speed Yellow 3.8L '95 993 track beast in exchange?

Performance wise, this car moves......in the hands of a great driver (not me, but a Craig Stanton/Cort Wagner), this car can turn mid 1:20's at Willow Springs.

Besides, you know this car has to be a fun track car if the ultimate track junkie, Mooty, got one.

Mooty, Is this true. Is this the reason you were unloading the Moton's from your Cayman.

Anyone know what groups you can race this car in; NSSA, SCCA.

Definitely elegible to run SCCA evemts -- here's some more info regarding the car which may answer your questions:

" [... the Lous Sport Exige Cup240...] features, straight from the factory, an Eaton supercharger bolted to the 1.8 liter Toyota power plant producing 240HP and 174lb-ft of torque, a 22 percent increase over the stock assembly. The functional roof scoop feeds air to the intercooler mounted vertically above the engine. The result is lightening quick performance and a huge power band that offers massive torque available anywhere on the tachometer. Other modifications include an Accusump lubrication system to ensure consistent oil pressure under the massive cornering loads that this incredible racer can create and a Stage II exhaust system. The 6-speed manual transmission is the same as on the naturally aspirated Exige, but Lotus Sport engineers opted for a sport clutch and the adjustability of a clutch-type limited-slip differential that utilizes removable plates to tune its locking rate. Ohlin two-way adjustable coil-overs with a firmer spring rate (458lbs front and 57 lbs rear) and front five-way-adjustable stabilizer bar combine to make the Exige Cup Car one of the best handling cars you will ever drive. Lotus Sport forged-aluminum wheels help keep weight down. Lacking any sort of street-going hardware like headlights, interior trim, carpeting, radio or air conditioning, this Cup car is a focused driving machine that makes no excuses. The interior is filled with an SCCA compliant roll cage, FIA-certified race seat and six-point harness. Other race-only features include an FIA-approved fire suppression system and electrical cutoff. Thanks to its race-ready suspension and a safety system, and the increase in low-end and mid-range torque, the Lotus Sport Exige Cup Car is ready to run with Ferrari Challenge and Porsche Cup cars on the track. "
