That has to be one of the most comfortable cars for rallying... :lol:

I just discovered that Supermodified racing exists...

Big Block Chevy pushed as far to the left as possible, in a chassis itself pushed as far to the left as possible. 800+hp. Movable wing. Upwards of 190MPH on longer tracks.

That recipe of the supermodified sounds like it's pretty much the most expensive kind of suicide. :lol:

This is page 959. You all know what that means...

(are paintings allowed here?)

here's a guy almost in tears while driving a 585 HP 959

Here's one of two 959s I've seen in person. The other one (pictures of which I can't find for the life of me) was red and parked inside a Porsche race prep shop locally.

Maybe I need to see it person, but the 959 (and to a smaller extent the 993) is ugly to me.

It's more about the performance and engineering than about looks. The mechanics below the skin are fascinating and a huge leap forward when it first came out.

Want one of these:

Not sure how legal that would be here though.

 

[laxmax613]

I'm into it.

 

[Labcoatguy]

I'd advise against it.

 

[Matt2000]

Apparently it would have to be spring loaded so it folds down if someone went over it. Not too tricky.

That is a nice looking beast, I've never seen it thouroughly till now
