The car was a beast. Shows what Roger Penske could do when he has no limits. Beautiful car.

An awesome car. I had the distrinct pleasure of watching Roger drive it at the Lime Rock Rennsport Reunion in 2001. There was another 917/30 in identical livery on track at the same time. Absolutely awesome.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) Friggin' flat 12 twin turbo capable of ludicrous acceleration ... Heard it could do 0-200+mph in about 10 seconds. Over 1,000 hp in racing tune, around 1,500 hp claimed in qualifying tune. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif) We will likely never see anything like it ever again, at sanctioned road racing anyway. Would love to see (and hear!) that car someday!
