just curious, how do you guys think a Porsche will run against the Neons and a 240?????

It's illegal, specifically mentioned in the rules.

You can bring it out for KOH though.

Perhaps my error here... I read too many rules packages. I thought it specifically mentioned Porsches.

I believe you could run a 944, and good luck to you with that. I don't think they were very reliable. Anything rear engined is out.

I believe the 944 s has the engine in the front

Yes it does 189hp, 2700 to 2900 lbs depending on model year. 914, 924 and 944 all same family, Volks/Porsche/Audi collaboration.

I'd rather concentrate on a platform I can get parts cheap for.

Nowhere near 189HP actually, you were probably looking at the specs for the 944S.

An '83 944 2.5L N/A puts out:
Horsepower: 147@5,800 rpm
Torque: 140@3,000 rpm

I'd imagine it'd run similar to a 240... however, having the transmission at the back of the car... who knows.... A friend of mine had one of these with the turbo back in college... they are pretty quick but also quite heavy.

I still don't agree that these should be running in a Pure Stock/Mini Stock class though. There have to be logical reasons why most other tracks have banned them from the class.

hey scooter dont drag me in this bullshit!if you want spec sheets i have one for an 88 and a 04 and guess what its the same!i went with a newer body because it was cheap and i thought it would look good thats all ,also i talked to tech at both tracks first!

2fast4u,,I did not Mention names'' Just Generalizing!!  ''Example ''if you will,,and for the record the 04 Mustang didn't come in a 4 cyl.,Just a 3.8 -190 hp v6 and a 4.6-270 hp  v8,, but you Car Looks great'' just I hope you get it set up that will run great for ya,The 04 body will run better being more Arrow Dynamic,Good Choice ,I actually thought it was a New Thunder Car till I saw ya In with the 4's,But no Pun Intended Believe me Not try to Piss anyone off From EXTREME TEAM'' 'Good luck with the car'...
