Anyone have experience or know of someone putting the late model 993, 996 and Boxster platforms on a diet?
993 = 3064 lbs 996 = 2998 lbs Boxster = 3118 lbs (all figures from a google search) Let's have two numbers: 1. If you were to gut the interior and add f/g lids with a cage 2. Same as above with f/g fenders (full body mod). Just curious..... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) Thanks, Bill P. |

Don't know for sure. I drove the 911 at Buttonwillow on a Sunday to finish a racers clinic because my car broke late Saturday. I even moved my tires from the 914 to the 911 so it wasn't tires. It was probably just me being more on top of it on Sunday but my 914 is heavily modified and the 911 is not and it was the first time I ever drove a 911, so it surprised me that I turned my fastest time on Sunday. The 911 I drove is the one behind me in my avatar, it's a early '80s with either a 3.0 or 3.2 but is also heavier than my car. |
