I was going through some pictures I took from Lime Rock Park vintage races over the last couple years..

Found this :) may not be exact, but it's cool~




...and this car was driven in by a spectator.. parked in the 'Porsche Corral' up by my site..
Probably a clone, but I'd be happy to drive it LOL




..and one more of a street car that was down in the paddock area.. think it's newer?




and another cool one that was up in the Corral..





Just a few 911's to wet our appetite this morning :)

Now there you go back on track. The weather gets boring to talk about, unless of course it is snowy and sideways driving weather! Lol jk.

The gulf blue 911 RS replica is nice. Reminds me of the one I owned, looked almost identical, except mine was guards red. 1972 911T, 4-sp, 16" Fuchs, duck tail, RS front bumper and lower valance, and all '72s had mechanical fuel injection. I made a video of the historic races at Lime Rock in 2005? Focused on Porsche 911s, I'll post it up.

BTW, I'm going to ask a ton of questions when it comes building time. I've never done this, so you guys are obligated to teach all newbies, it's got to be in the HRW handbook somewhere. Either that, or the great Wizard of HRW will need step in and help me out. :violin:

Seriously.. In looking at those chassis. I think you should allow a front axle tube or bushings to be installed to keep the axle solid and not just flopping around. Will make for better handling cars. And also keep the inside rear tire planted in the turns. I will have mine here early next week and can let you know just how sloppy it is. Just a suggestion. Or even SCC axle blocks.
