GT3 Cup Championship Porsches Are FOR SALE
The 2015 GT3 Championship winning 2010 Porsche 997 and 2014 Porsche 991 (both 3.8 liter cup racing cars) driven by REAL Exclusive cover feature, Steve White [1], are for sale. White started and ended the season at Sebring International Raceway, winning both times. “Years of coaching with LP Dumoulin (2014 Canadian NASCAR Champion) and practice is finally paying dividends, but there are many unsung heroes including my chief mechanic, Ryan Uhrinec, and all the guys that help keep us on track,” White shares.
The 2010 997 GT3 Cup Car is based on the 911 GT3 RS. Power comes from a horizontally-opposed 3.8-liter six cylinder engine that produces 450 hp. It includes a 1.7” wider rear body and 67” rear wing (from 911 GT3 Cup S race car). Weighing just 2,646 lb, the car is outfitted with light-alloy 18-inch wheels, a fully controlled catalytic converter, a special racing exhaust system, adjustable front and rear anti-roll bars, and optional ceramic composite brakes that weigh 44 lbs less than traditional composite cast brakes.
“The real hidden hero is the car itself. I started the season driving the 2010 Porsche 997 cup car, an initially difficult car to master on track because of being a rear engine car. Late in the season I moved to the 2014 Porsche 991 cup car. Both cars offer incredible reliability, handling and relative ease to service while racing. This is why Porsche is one of the leading manufacturers and winning brands in motorsports racing for decades.
This car has less than 26 hours of track time. The 2014 991 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup Car is based on the 911 series production model. With the weight-optimized modular racing exhaust system, the 3.8-litre flat-six engine of the 2014 911 GT3 Cup now produces 460 hp. The power of the engine is transmitted to the rear axle by a racing
clutch and a newly developed Porsche six-speed sequential gearbox with mechanical slip differential. The electropneumatic paddle shift system makes gear changes even faster and more efficient. This car is also quicker to decelerate with the newly developed race brake system.
My newest acquisition is a 2014 Porsche 991 GT America cup car which is the NEXT level up, providing the driver with adjustable suspension from inside the cockpit, a full endurance package and most importantly the coveted larger displacement 4.0 liter engine. This cup car is extremely rare as there are only 8 currently running in the U.S. The GT America has raised the bar for Porsche, and now me. The rest is up to me. See you in the Winner’s Circle,” he adds. Click HERE [2] to down load the cars.
