This 2.2 S is quite something. Dutch R Gruppe in ST guise.

This thing explodes past 5k.


Baby got stance.


Delicate. The US 2010 GT3 is not modified.

A quick shot from that GT3:

TwinSpark riot and a driver to match. I like it when guys choose their own lines. In a car like this you have to.

That R Gruppe ST looks fantastic. Which engine has it got in it ?

This looks nice, although not totally convinced about the wide arch / ducktail look..

Interior nicely done

I like that as well, that + the 360hp from that turbo engine, gives it looks and performance.

I would also like a lightweight copy ST model with modern GT3 engine, cute sporty classic looks with a bite.

this one I don't know what to think about, a very strange colour based on a 1980 SC now with 280hp not bad

I really don’t like the backdate look...don’t really know why. Much prefer it when someone has say put RS or ST arches on say an early 70’s 911 E.

Some work better than others though...

2.2S with about 180 on tap. There's a Dutch historic racer in our dawn raid group with a road legal racer and 200+ from a 2.2. You need to use feet and arm

Looks a nice car,some effort gone into it,looks like turbo arches from the angle of the pics.
Important part of a st or big power with a ducktail,is to get it to handle properly,as they can get pretty scary for the uneducated in these early cars,more to them than just looking pretty

Reminds me of latest GT2/GT3 RS. Funny how the cognisenti think this is probably tasteless but a 991 RS isn't.

95 grand for a 115k mile 997 Turbo with a bad body kit? Crikey, I'll have some of what they're smoking please!

[IMI A]

Champion Motorsport did one and this is similar. Think with genuine CF RSR bodykit cost circa £400,000. It does remind me of Porsche current GT products.

Sorry cost over $1m - I like it in black

It’s certainly “interesting”

Another 2.7RS rep coming up for sale soon at Silverstone Auctions

I much prefer the tyres on the one I drove they look a bit weedy on the rep. Just whole stance looks different. I'd love to own that touring - very special

Dutch R Grupper: this car paved the way to so many great Outlaw efforts.

Have a quiet word I, I think he may have fitted the air jacks in upside down ...

Schoolboy error. He's 14 now. Can pedal. He's been going to Rye House since he was 7. Had bust up with his manager (mum) so is currently looking for a new drive and a new agent

That happens all too frequently at his age, rest assured, he'll either get through a lot of managers, or realise the one he has, is actually the very best of the best

Been there, done that, with my son and daughter.
Started off fine when ‘Dad knows everything’ - but soon got the sack, when they realised I didn’t
Karting should be fun - but too many ‘racing dads’ to deal with
Move into and up the single-seater/GT ladder and very deep pockets for the best management.

I agree got a bit too serious for both of them actually think his agent was worse! Racing was pretty full on too in Lewis Hamilton Cup. Couple of bad crashes lucky no broken bones but bad whiplash, tears and sore and that happened once when he was leading race ran him off on purpose. Very happy after podiums and fastest laps though
