1957 Porsche 356a Coupe on 2040-cars
Reading, Pennsylvania, United States
1957 all original 356A coupe started as a completely stock solid road car that has been modified in to a vintage race car. This car has a VSCCA log book and has raced in HSR, SCCA and VRG. The car is a turn-key, ready to go racing this weekend. The motor was built by 356 specialist Vic Skirmants. It is a fresh motor with no races on it (has been run to verify good oil pressure, no oil leaks, etc). The engine is set up to run Zenith carburetors and has dual oil coolers in the front of the car. The transmission is also Skirmants built with modified 2nd gear (and subsequent elimination of 1st gear) and Quaife limited slip. This is a best setup for road racing. A street transmission is also available and can be installed if you would prefer that. The Skirmants transmission cannot really be driven on the street because of the lack of 1st gear. The car will come with one transmission, one or the other but not both. Please be in contact with me once the auction is over. The car has been fully race safety certified which means the front suspension has been reinforced, a roll bar installed, a full cell installed and a battery cut off system. The car also features a racing seat, safety belts and quick disconnect steering wheel. The floor, longitudinals, battery box and interior of the car are solid and have no rust or damage. All of the windows are Plexiglas with the exception of the windshield.

Chris Harris gets filthy in a WRC-ready Porsche 911 RGT
Thu, Jan 15 2015Last time we rode with Chris Harris we were shotgun in the tan leather seat of his used-yet-immaculate Ferrari FF. This time we're strapped into a black racing bucket of a filthy Porsche 911 rally car, one that led Harris to effuse, "I don't think I've driven a more exciting car this year, hypercars included." The thrills come courtesy of a 997-series Cup Car that's been reworked by Tuthill Porsche to run in the RGT-class rally series that will piggyback on five World Rally Championship and European Rally Championship races this year. It's not quite the Rothmans Dakar monster, but the RGT series gives privateers an affordable way into rallying with cars that look different and are different from one another. This one kept its 3.8-liter, 444-horsepower 997 Cup engine, but the 39-milllimeter restrictor drops that to about 350 hp. Beyond that are a new rollcage, gear ratios, suspension, fuel tank, underfloor protection and just about everything else. Said the man who built it, it cost "a lot, and it's still costing." But Harris says even though you "have to have your wits about you," it's a hoot to drive. And this is one of the few times you'll hear the phrase "What a tool!" used as a compliment. Check it out in the video above. News Source: Chris Harris on Cars via YouTube Motorsports Porsche Coupe Off-Road Vehicles Racing Vehicles Performance Videos fia rally WRC chris harris porsche 997
Porsche Cayman GT4 spot has us reaching for our driving gloves
Wed, Feb 4 2015We've got to hand it to Porsche for finally unleashing the potential of the Cayman, and not worrying about it infringing on 911 territory. The latest Cayman is, by all accounts, a superb sports car in its own right, gets even better as the Cayman S and that much more so in GTS spec. But the new Cayman GT4 takes things to a whole other level with a 3.8-liter flat six driving 385 horsepower to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual. Old school is what it is, and certifiably off the leash. We brought you the full skinny on the new GT4 late last night when it surfaced, but now Porsche has released a video clip highlighting what makes its new pocket rocket look so great. It's got Nurburgring graffiti, intimidated neighbors, barking fluffy dogs, gape-jawed children, and of course footage of the Cayman GT4 itself doing what it was designed to do. All we need now is to get our driving gloves on its Alcantara steering wheel and ball-shaped shifter.
