Kyle's Porsche replica

Post by gordon »

Spent yesterday afternoon and today working on cars for the next event. I've been wanting to prep a replica of Kyle's GT Porsche 911R and finally did it. Here they are, the new in the foreground with the original behind:

Although they're set up in a similar fashion, I've made some changes and the new car is 5gm (6%) lighter.

Hope it runs well!

New car looks great Gordon. Thought Kyle's would have been lighter, missing the two headlamps.

Nicely done Gordon,

It looks great and such a memorable project ...

Back in the game (of GT races) I remembered how fast Kyle's Porsche was and sure with this new version, it will be just as quick or even faster because of the fine tune adjustments gained ... and you're looking forward to impressive times with winning results ..!

All the best for next event.

Thanks Steve. I'm sure I had Kyle's silent help in setting it up and driving it!
