wlaidlaw Posted November 11, 2012 Share #4342 Posted November 11, 2012 That would be giving away too much if I said it was - it might be mid engined. Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernstk Posted November 15, 2012 Share #4346 Posted November 15, 2012 Porsche 935? Ernst Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlaidlaw Posted November 15, 2012 Share #4347 Posted November 15, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) Ernst, Correct. This is real one, not one of the plastic copies that used to sit in Porsche Dealerships, although I did not recognise the original drivers' names (both German sounding). This was at a charity car show near Brighton UK last Sunday. There was a good representation from Zuffenhausen, with this 935, my RSR, a big wing 964 Turbo, a 2.7 lightweight, and a 964 RS. All displayed in an amazing huge 13th century barn. Wilson Welcome, dear visitor!

Ernstk Posted November 15, 2012 Share #4348 Posted November 15, 2012 Wilson You have an RSR? I have a distant relative, a 1974 2.7 Carrera (with the 11/83 MFI engine) which is currently being rebuilt from the ground up. I had a 964 RS for a while but it was quite unpleasant on the road, but great for track use. Do you have any photos posted of your RSR? Ernst Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rona!d Posted November 15, 2012 Share #4349 Posted November 15, 2012 (edited) Nice "barn find", Wilson. Wasn´t that the ex-Kannacher car (originally made in 1980) then crashed and rebuilt in 82 by dp for a swedish driver? Hmmm, front decal "MARTINI PORSCHE" looks different though.

Ernst Ernst, Mine started its life as a Penske Special - a 1977 S California Competition Lightweight. In effect a thin steel turbo body on a 3.0 RS floor pan. This was an edition, supposedly to use up some of the unsold 3.0 RS floor pans, given that Porsche only managed to sell 103 3.0 RS cars. I found it in a scrap yard in Sonoma in 2008, as an engineless abandoned race car. I am now using a big bore 3 litre block with a 3.3 turbo crank = 3.3L and all sorts of other nice bits in the engine, all held together with ARP bolts. I use gas-flowed Motronic fuel injection with a 911RS Netherlands DME computer. This car is mainly used for Alpine and mountain rallying, so I wanted lots of torque (345 Nm) as well as reasonable power (285 PS), allied to reasonable fuel consumption 11-12 L/100km while rallying. Here is it with me driving, on the 2010 Coupe des Alpes. It only weighs 985kg. Wilson Welcome, dear visitor!

Ernstk Posted November 16, 2012 Share #4351 Posted November 16, 2012 Wilson It looks good. It must be quite rapid. My Carrera has 220 BHP and weighs 970kg (It's stripped out for sprints/hilclimb use) so the extra 65 BHP in yours must make a big difference. Mine below. (Yes, I know, it's a Targa...)

stuny Posted November 16, 2012 Share #4352 Posted November 16, 2012 Ernst - At first I thought I'd have an easy time identifying this as a Porsche Targa Carrera, but it's not the next puzzle car. I await your post. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
