**Detailed description below, Technical Listing in Post #2, and detailed Photos in Post #3. **
I am selling my sensational track mistress of the past 6 years. She has totally rocked my world since 2013.
It is now time for me to move on to my next motorsport endeavor, and pass her on to a worthy Porsche enthusiast. Betty is a wicked, BAD *** Machine. She may not be the most beautiful Porsche 911 in the entire world, but she is still one fit, curvaceous, sexy thing with her narrow body RS Clubsport areo kit, and weighing in at a svelte 2750 pounds dry.She’s just a “10” dressed up as a “3” ! Ok, maybe a "6"!!!
Indeed, her frontend paintwork and windshield is sandblasted from chasing down and passing Turbos, GT3’s, and GT4’s, and she’s got a few scuffs and dents here and there.But who really cares about a few minor cosmetic imperfections when you are in command of a “Hardcore Track Goddess”; basically street legal race car!
Betty’s heart is a factory 3.6 L flat six, professionally built, balanced, andbullet-proof with a GT3 crankshaft, custom Pauter connecting rods and a GT3 oil pump in the bottom end, and new valves, RSR valve springs with Titanium retainers and a custom single pulley/drive belt system.The A/C is long gone, if you are going to try to make Betty sweat, you are going to sweat it out too! She has a boisterous motorsport exhaust note that is the envy of any car at the track, and a favorite of track workers everywhere with her FD Motorsport Sport Cats and Stage 1 mufflers !In addition, she keeps her oil cool when the going gets extra HOT with dual oil coolers, one per front fender well.
Like any self-respecting race car, Betty has a rock hard brake pedal which is backed up with fresh 993 Turbo calipers (Big Reds) and DBA slotted rotors up front, along with rear C2 calipers, turbo portioning valve, and slotted rotors. Hawk DC60 race pads are used for excellent endurance, bite, modulation, and heat dissipation.
Her undercarriage (you will be excited to learn!) has been fortified with GT2 uprights, RSR sway bars, ERP upper dog bones and toe links, and a 2-way adjustable Moton Clubsport coil-over suspension set up with 450/650lb H&R springs with helpers. And she runs on factory hollow Turbo Twist wheels (8x18 and 10x18) with Bridgestone RE71R tires filling her fenders to the max (245/285). With these tires she is able to drive to and from the track with ease (just as a real Porsche was intended), and is set up to corner as well as any car running R-compounds or slicks. The ride is firm, supple, and pure goodness, while feedback and grip stimulate the senses to the max!
Betty’s “secret weapon” is her rebuilt close-ratio six-speed G50 gearbox with a Quaife LSD. The gears have motorsport steel synchronizers and the gear ratios have been cleverly stacked closer together to ensure that there is the perfect gear to enter every corner or straightaway on any track would you care to conquer. The effect of the close ratio transmission is like having an additional 50bhp.Please feel free to book a ride along with me to demonstrate this fact. Betty knows how to keep the driver satisfied…. and busy!
In the cockpit, she is well equipped for driver safety with a full custom welded PCA spec roll cage with OMP WRC race bucket seats on sliders and six point OMP harnesses, Rennline aluminum floorboards, fire extinguisher, and RS door panels with heavy-duty custom pulls. She currently has a MOMO Tuner Leather wrapped steering wheel installed, but I will also include an OMP Alcantera wheel with yellow leather center stripe.
Betty is totally at home on the racetrack, in fact she’s thrives there. When her tachometer is kept between 4000 and her 7200 RPM redline, it is absolute motorsport bliss. She will run all day - every day if you can afford to keep her fuel tank from going dry. No fuss, no muss!Just the business!
On the street she is BAD *** too, but one needs to deal with the additional cockpit noise from her rather healthy engine, throaty exhaust, and lack of sound insulation, as well as the natural whining from her custom motorsport gearbox and grumbling lightweight flywheel. In addition, her clutch is especially grippy, so don’t be surprised if she catches you out every once in a while pulling away from a stop sign, or embarrasses you in a parking lot. Basically she’s just telling you to take her to the racetrack, instead of duffing it around town like a wuss!
Oh Betty, …it’s not you, it’s me!I am so sorry to let you go…We can still be friends! …I do still love you!

do you have the Gear ratio and any engine dyno
PM returned....Dyno coming soon.....she is pretty damn strong!
Here is the Gear Ratio sheet..........you have to be quick to keep up with Betty.......shift points come up fast, much like a sport bike.
She always has the right gear available for you......you just need to know to put it there!
I actually know this car pretty well, and have ridden in it when it was with a former owner...and it is FRIGGING FAST and beyond capable on the track. Has to be one of the best setup 993s I've ever been in. Damn impressive, GLWS, whoever gets this car is lucky!

Thank you for your kind words Sir!
It as been a fantastic car for me.....I have loved every minute of ownership. The former owner Jack K. in Philly put together a great car.....I continued the love by providing some mild creature comforts, meticulous maintenance, and some additional performance modifications.
THIS IS A WHAT AN AIRCOOLED TRACK CAR SHOULD BE !!! And you just drive it to the track on street tires, and run as is. WOW!
This thing is awesome. Slowly working my car toward something close to this and the asking price does not even get close to the parts bill alone $$$. Great deal here. I like the choices on the engine build and am curious to see what the dyno numbers are. GLWS!
I have had the pleasure of riding in and driving this car at Spring Mountain. It is everything mentioned and more! This car always feels communicative, connected and fully planted. The gearing is a highlight and is just fantastic on the track, you are always ready for the jump from corner to corner, no waiting, no hesitation, just up and go!
To replicate this car, you would be spending the asking price on top of a donor car, great deal!
