If one were to buy such a wonderfully priced race car, would one have to commit to running in any 944 cup events? I'd be interested in using it for pca de after law school, job, etc...
How does the car's performance compare to a 944 turbo?

About 75 to 100 HP less then the Turbo, so the Turbo is faster, and how much in terms of lap times depends on the track and the driver....
Ideally, the car would make it to some Cup races.

Seriously!
Given the list of race prep and freshening work, a fully prepared SP2 car with a current NASA logbook for under $6K is just about the best 'buy it and go racing' deal I've ever seen. I can't imagine a better way to get into racing. Somebody needs to buy this car!
