I don't know anything about the car except that it is to be seriously fielded in the USA, I think in the Grand American Road Racing Series.
Fuel is in the side pods.

The 996 became water cooled. A bit of a U-turn as I remember Posrche saying they were going back to their roots with air cooled engines about a decade ago.(Hence the 993 following on from the 964, and original 911). And now we have the Ceyanne(sp?), which uses an incarnation of the old 4.5 litre 928S, but with twin turbo's to boot A lot of the cooling comes from the dry sump system which all 911's have.
Either way they are a seriously amazing piece of engineering excellence, with dry sump, two 6-wire distributors and a ridiculously high compression ratio (turbo excluded).
As for the Porsche engined Ultima, I think Ruff Engineering could get the power up to about 660+hp and that would make for an interesting car.
It's a shame they can't build good reliable V8's though we will have to wait and see with the Ceyanne. Now that would make for an interesting conversion Wonder how much you could pick up a totalled one of those for with a good engine

I had remote reservoir Ohlins on my Cerbera for a while.
