Yes, it's my GT2RS...

I've never been a fan of the carbon striping (personal choice), so started thinking about what I could do to customise things a bit. the 2RS is never a car for being subtle anyway, so decided to go full on..
Realised that this year is the 40th anniversary of the 935/78 racer 'Moby Dick' and given the dates and the King Kong/Moby Dick stuff, it just made sense!

Got in touch with Nick and Anthony at NS2 and they made it all fit perfectly.

Car went from factory to Porsche GB, the customisation is on my order form, and I'm taking delivery once it's done.
I'll post all the pics when it's done, but just want to make sure it turns out as expected (I'm sure it will).

Everything is painted - no wrap - including logos.Mg Wheels are getting a chrome ring liike the original BBS, and the sills were also cusomsoed by NS2.
It's specced to be used on track - no lift, leather, chrono etc, and I definitely won't be sneaking round town in it very often!
Will post some more pics next week @f00tsoldier

You gotta get an allocation first.

Too soon?

I hope you get one eventually, sans a recession.

What a great spec and nod to history. I can only imagine the huge grin when you get behind the wheel. Enjoy the journey.
