Edit my bad you are actually 15 seconds slower than a 200hp scca P1 car, which would run the super unlimeted class in nasa! Now thats whats silly!

I always thought these were a great alternative to a production super/hypercar, you could drive on the street and do track days with but as a pure race car lap times always dissapoint. 2 seconds is a lot, especially since you had a pro driver at the wheel, and nasa drivers are well not quite...

Sent you a PM

Chip, any updates? What did you decide on the body? I'd like to swing by and take a look sometime.

Cliff, Can you point me to someone who produces and sells 917 bodies. You can PM me if you don't want to post publicly. Regards.

Are you going to be doing your own bodywork?

Any of you guys who make your living making these bodies, kits, or could possibly be harmed if this TM is granted you need to get representation, and get involved RIGHT NOW! If cost is a concern you should all get together and hire a reputable trademark attorney jointly. But just get involved...

Chip, any updates on your project? I've been thinking of a GT Reproductions car, how has your experience been so far.

Without a shadow of a doubt it is a 4 speed. Porsche did not put a 5 speed in until 1989. If the Excellence mag said otherwise then it was a misprint. Bruce will tell you the same... no 5 speed until 89.

Looking really sharp John! Hope to have something to post myself in the very near future. Regards, Jon

Yes I know this won't fit in a Gt40, and that is not what it is for, so lets not go there. Does anyone have a vette c5 or c6 transaxle they can measure for me. I need to know the length from the mounting face on the bellhousing, to the center of the output flanges. Any help appreciated.

Jerry (Seinfeld) has a real 917, so I don't know why he would buy a replica.

Wow, talk about a thread hijack...anyway trying to get this back, Chris how is your 908 project coming along.

To FRPGUY, your box is full and we can't get ahold of you, If anyone has FRPGUys email can you send me a message, thanks

The Boxster is far to big a car for it to work unfortunately, you'd have to cut the whole thing up.
