Fantastic. This is my goal.
Sometime ago, Fran said he was working on another 917 offering "that will be very appealing to many.....". Is there any news about that?

By the way...the Swiss car did not leave with those wheels...
it has 917 five spoke two piece wheels...

So there is a 3rd 917 in the works?! any hints!?!
Randy,
this one went to Switzerland.,
Craigs is sitting in the shop waiting for the shipping company to sort out their route and pick up date....
OC...I must be missing something...
We have the tube for tube and the mono/tube 917...(similar to 962)...nothing more.....the appealing one is the mono/tube with a price point similar to the RCR40...

Please Santa, please ask Fran to build me a 962 for Christmas! :idea:
Looks fantastic..what have customers been choosing to power them with -
Porsche Flat 6's of various flavours ?

Don't cha just want a garage full of RCR toys? I could easily park an SLC next to the 40...
Being a newbie, what engine and transaxle is used in the RCR 917?
Porsche flat six with 930 transaxle
My mistake Fran, I misinterpreted your original quote. Which was this, as found in the 917 section in the topic "another 917.. this time RCR"
I think you were working on filling 2 orders, not 2 separate designs and adding a third.
But if you feel like adding a 3rd 917, say a 917/20, we wont stop you!:shy:
Sweeeet -
Nice job guys that puppy is to drool over, maybe a pic of the five spoke wheels?
Those roller wheels look like they were stolen off the yellow P4, No?
A 917 to go along with my other RCR...... Fran says "Collect Them All".
Hell, I'm not even married but I'm sure someone would divorce me over that

Rob,
we have lots of roll around wheels...we use Goodyears/BRM's on quite a few cars for mock up..(correct period style/sizing)...my GT has 8 x 15 and 12 x 15's with G12 Blue Streaks, on too but in solid black
The 917 wheels wont fit on your SL-C so "forget about it"..:laugh:..not even if you widen them to 24 inches...

Very nice job fran :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
that the first time I see your mono tube for RCR917K and it's looks great (stiff, safe, ...)
I have only one question:
If do not make a mistake (i'm waiting from french postman (which are on strike:veryangry some major books on 917 history)
917k has an oil cooler in the nose.
does it fit on the RCR917K version ?

Re: R C R 917 MONO
Thanks,
Yes it does...same location, same size....
I would say that sitting in the aluminum chassis would be far safer than inside the tubular structure of the original.
We have also made more cockpit room inside the car and made ingress and egress easier with the contour of the sponsons...a practical 917....:laugh:
