Re: GTV6 2.5 -Street Legal Track Car

Kevin, I'm going to keep it as stock as possible. Idea is to use it as a fun street car, so want exhaust noise levels as low a possible. Also want it to keep the look as close to original as possible, no need to alert our traffic officers. Want to be able to drive the car to the club track days and ...

Re: PowerMods911 - GTV6 2.8 TT - Race Car

My race number is 911, and without any particular reason I matched the GTV to the race number. Don't fear the race number 911 is TOTALLY unrelated to the Porche 911. Hopefully the thread title GTV6 2.8TT makes up and clears any confusion as to what the car is. :D Here's a picture of it on the track ...

Re: 3.7 24v Build in 116 GTV

Kevin, pity you moved when you did, should have waited another 2 weeks so we could have had one last race (without you being 2.5 sec faster) a more evenly balanced race. Finally I'd be able to focus on racing rather than having to make my car as wide as possible coming into table top to "discou...

Re: GTV6 2.5 -Street Legal Track Car

Thanks, good idea rolling the lip on the rear wheel arches,especially if I go for an 8j rim ala the 15" 3.0 split compomotives. I also have a set of 17" 8J, if you recall the rims that came on the 3.0 I bought.

Re: New Project Junior

Nice project car, you seem to have a pretty neat setup to work from. Look forward to seeing it on the track, hopefully soon.

GTV6 2.5 -Street Legal Track Car

Bought the car as a donor car, had all the bits I needed to finish off my 3.0, front and rear windsceens, 3.0 spoiler (brand new tucked away on the rear seats), the rest would be used to restore my White 2.5 that had been standing for 17 years. Well as things turned out, the white 2.5 became the don...

At one stage there were 3 cars going into the hairpin, I took the inside :twisted: and there we were 4 cars coming ...
