New (old) toy
So, I found this during quarantine and couldn't pass it up.
It was being built up as a 944Cup SP2 class car. Not sure if I will continue down that path or just use it for AX, DE and for my boys to learn in as well.

How about some details on current build? Narrow body = narrow(er) wheels
 . Plus late offset so fewer (low cost) choicesI was so glad(e) the turbo finally sold! I was so close to “falling off the wagon....... again!

One more thing:
This whole thread should be moved into P-Car tech! You know you’ll need assistance w/any fofo project!

This is a great car for the youngsters to learn in. If they master the art of driving slow cars fast, they will be successful in anything they grow into. Very few folks learn how to properly manage momentum at the limits of adhesion and rely on gobs of HP to get a good lap time.
