very interesting. I had been searching for 90"s racing pics.

Do you have any 993 CUP car pics?

Is there a thread of old Carrera cup pics?

I still can't wrap my head around "vintage" + "993"............

I've got quite a few from the '98-9 seasons at Sears (and probably Laguna), plus when some of the leftover cars were still running at Daytona in 2000. I think I have some scanned, but can work on that.

This site is a good source for photography:

www.racingsportscars.com

However the photos are copyrighted so you cannot save them. It's a giant database.

Click "cars" in the top left and then enter the brand name, select model, etc.

Just trying to describe in "headline" fashion they were not "new" photos.

Sorry for any confusion or neck spasms from having to wrap one's head around the headline

Any source material for documenting what they looked like when running is appreciated for posterity and future tribute cars.

Thanks for the photo links, all good reference stuff and maybe some screen savers or calendar material if no copyright issues.

Are these cars considered “vintage” yet? love seeing these cars in period race livery. Here are a couple from Rennsport Reunion 7.

I got to drive both of these cars at Mid Ohio and Putnam park before they were worth bazillions... Hard to explain how much fun that was.
Here is my old vintage 993 PCA racer.

That”s awesome! I can’t imagine what a race car is like. I wonder if the sound and fury are overwhelming. Or if the helmet and earplugs muffle things enough to allow the other senses to feel in control. This is a subject for another thread though.
