In 2010, I converted my 944 Turbo S to the Turbo Cup spec for G-class in PCA. The car was stripped to the base chassis and completely rebuilt. Pretty much every gasket, bushing, bearing and bolt. I have a box of receipts from 2009 to current. Car comes with title.
Car holds many class wins at Road America, Sebring and Mid-Ohio. It also currently holds the lap record at Mid-Ohio in G class. You can see the full race history at http://rennpoints.com/driverhistory/?racer=684
It really pains me to put this car up for sale as it’s been my pride and joy for the past 7 years. Unfortunately logic has prevailed and as I have 2 young kids and spend 13+ weekends a year traveling for work. I also now live in Central Florida and have limited opportunities to race with PCA.
Car comes with a very extensive spare package. See attached file for complete list.

This is one of the most competitive (if not the most competitive) G car in the country (I have a G class car so I know from racing against it). Until Doug recently broke the Road America record, Brian's 951 cup held it there too.
Cant say enough great things about how much money and time went into making this thing a rocket. Also cant say enough good things about Brian. There is not a more meticulous owner I know in racing than this guy.
Im sad to see you leave G buddy, but its for the right reasons. You are welcome to come by and co-pilot my 964 anytime you want.

Good luck Brian. Sorry to see you sell... but I understand completely.
To potential buyers: I've seen the car, worked on the car, ridden in the car, and known Brian for a few years now. He's meticulous, the car was always done "right" the first time. It's clean, it's fast.
I wouldn't hesitate to buy the car myself and put it right on the track, ready to go, if I had more time and budget to spend at the track.
