The car was number #56 below. It was the winner of multiple races in 07 including the 24 hours of Zolder. The Belgium race shop GPR Racing built it to from the ground up from a bare GT3 shell using all 997 Cup parts. The only difference from a stock Cup car is a slightly different cage design.

Around 2008, it was imported to the US. Since then it has been in the hands of the ex Farnbacher Loles race team at Goldcrest Motorsports. Last year, it had one SCCA Race at Road Atlanta and one NASA race there. Goldcrest states that there is no evidence of any previous accident damage.
Goldcrest has fully maintained the car including full time trackside support. Partial work in 2012 includes:
gearbox rebuild
New clutch
Jew JRZ RS Pro's
Radios, GPS, Shift Light
Wing, hood, new harnesses
Race suspension setup
Here is an in-car lap at Road Atlanta last year - 1:27
Goldcrest says that it is fully sorted and ready to go club race.
New Info:
New info on the car from GPR and new price - $78,000 with a second set of wheels.
According to GPR, the car was built from a raw Porsche Motorsport Tub in 2007. Original Cup motor was new at the same time of the build. Gearbox was reviewed (their term) and refreshed as needed after every race. When retired and sold to the U.S. buyer, the car had 80 total hours on it.
Upon passing this info along to the current owner, he gave me a few other pieces of info:
He confirmed that the car was never run in the U.S. until he did in 2012. He has put approximately 5 hours on the car in 2012. The car did not run at the Chin event this past weekend due to excessive rain both days. It was there to run but they never took it out.
Before running in 2012:
Goldcrest put new coil packs in the car
Switched over all the European connectors to US style for the Motec and radios
Replaced all Monoballs in the car (According to him, normal cups do not come with monoballs but instead rubber)
Upgraded suspension arms to fully adjustable
Put on "blade" style swaybars
GPR is glad to directly answer questions from buyers as long as they have a French translator.

He is also interested in 997 GT3 street cars, if anyone has one to trade.
Thanks
