Thank you for the link. Will look at it.

If RED Porsche, than this 993 GT2. One of the all time favs among those who know. THE VERY BEST! Not the pretend 934. Probably just a standard car underneath. Just look how it leans...

Never will forget my first exposure to how INCREDIBLY STRONG carbon tubs really are - watching Pat Bedard loosing it in turn TWO at Indy many, many years ago. That car hit SO hard and rolled SO violently that NOTHING BUT THE TUB, with Pat in it was left when it stopped on the infield grass, upside down... I feared the…

Here it is:

I second your comment. The he should not have made that mistake, no matter what the waether may have thrown at him at that section of the track. A driver’s error, in my book.

One of, if not THE MOST fav pics EVER - Eckhart Zimmermann’s (ex-aero man at Opel’s GM D-land) DP935 body Kremer Racing commissioned, I believe. Eckhart was the first to realize, the fresh air vent exit step of a 911 body roof’s trailing edge and the rear glass, was the biggest culprit in the boundry layer separation,…

Bet that ‘bi-winged’ CE300 trunk lid (pic#1) did nothing for the nice car’s aero. For that very important air layer, hugging the otherwise handsome body over the roof, separated at its trailing edge and never re-attached itself. That is the reason why even the EVO’s a bit higher wing did not work. It was not until the…

Very nice, indeed. So elegant! LOVE those serious looking round exhaust pipes. Was surprised to learn P AG awarded those very classic looking wheels to some other company to make, not Fuchs. How could that be? Just does not seem right. Also surprised, in a good way, to see it made the US approved import list! The only…

It’s all of those plus a very effective HEAT SHIELD, not to get hot Parnelli and Bill even more overheated. Boy, in those racing days, they were AWESOME. At Baja 1000, especially. Won it many times. Think they even introduced HELICOPTERS to all those SCORE venues. They had a radio contact and their heli pilot actually…

Should you wish to know whether that spoiler actually does anything, before you are about to wash your nice car next time, do a simple test long time race mechanics used to do in an early aero trials. They had a squirt can of dirty oil (using your engine’s oil dip stick with a bit of oil on it will work as good even…

AGREED, less is more, especially when compared to the original bellow. No question

The famous ‘Rattlesnake Raceway’ Jim calls it...

CORRECT, the P Museum is an amazing depository as well as a most impressive modern structure of its own. Well worth anyones visit. Also has a small work shop on the ground floor and a 1st Class American Beef Steaks in their Christophorus restaurant accessible after Museum hours as well.

Pretty strong center structure but those sides, not so much . . .

..., albeit bent, does not appear compacted at all.

It’s the ANGLE, in which the car engages the wall, what’s so important for survival. Albeit bent up in front, this car surely DID NOT hit the wall head on. If one studies those after photos carefully, you’ll notice there is a more substantial damage to the right front. Also, looking at the bent cooler

Not to worry. Properly designed carbon tubs are INCREDIBLY STRONG. Also, in other cars, the same holds true for well designed cages. Here, for example, is the latest one welded into a PORSCHE GT3 race car body. If done properly, they stiffen the entire structure so well, that the sheet metal body is just a nice…
