Lets just keep looking for an engine -- no point starting over and the residual value carries over. (In other words we have $ to play with if we keep this car)

We were the first to pass tech with no issues and BS with 0 laps so I think its worth keeping. I'm working on what we can do for an engine.

There is a motor from a 1984 selling for $350. We can also rebuild the motor that is in Ken's warehouse that he got from Mike's roller.

I've got a core we can rebuild too. I'll talk with Ken and see what he wants to do

that just sucks.

maybe you should have stuck with using a Pixar theme for the car, always seemed to bring good luck...next time you can call it(Blown)UP!

Just reading the GRM article on lemonsthat I picked up at registration and it has the following:

Three cars that shouldn't suck but always do:

All Porsche 944

Grippy, well balanced and guaranteed to blow huge chunks of fine German craftsmanship onto the track at 8 hours.

I read that same article and took offense to it. Our 944 ran like a champ at Buttonwillow AND at T-Hill this weekend. We were in 20th position with 2 hours left in the race, and our last driver slow-poked it until the checkered flag ...dropping us to a final place of 31 out of 150-160 entries.
In fact...there was a 944 turbo and a 924S who both finished as well. The turbo was an unwelcome entry to a lot of folks, but it wasn't a threat. It had serious overheating and crashing issues all weekend.
It was a bummer not to have you guys hanging out and driving this weekend. It turned out to be a nice weekend, after dumping rain on Friday.
Sears Pointless will be here before we know it! Get a motor in that puppy!
