For Sale: 997 CUP-R - Extremely Unique, Sorted & Fast
Well after almost 8 years of development, I just don't get to drive her anymore due to work and life commitments so I prefer to let someone lese enjoy.
The car is turn key, everything is refreshed and prepared for a season that never came.
Engine is freshly rebuilt with ZERO hours and Transmission has 6 hours on it from total refresh.
Priced to sell. Interested parties can discuss with me over the phone for the details.
Car is located in LAs Vegas at Premier Sports Car Service, where all work has been done to the car since 2012.
This car was built as a dream project and every single item on the car was meticulously thought-out and only the BEST and new parts were fitted. Since being built ayear ago the car has been taken apart and gone through down to the tub by 2 of the best Porsche engineers with top pro level racing & WINNING experience, that know all the tricks.
Over $350k was spent to get the car as is and its perfect for someone looking to compete at the top of GTA2, NASA or SCCA without having the running cost expense of running a RSR/GT3R.
I built this car to see how fast of a car we could make and I could drive.
This cars running costs are the same as a 997 CUP or even less but with better handling and speed than a 991 GT3 Cup.
The car was last run at Rennsport Reunion where it qualified 3rd behind 2 pro drivers, Patrick Lindsey & Cory Freidman in a 997RSR.

I was never planning to sell the car. The car is perfect as is and is ready to be raced for many season before it needs anything. You can buy a cheaper car but no other car will have been built and gone through and just checked liked this car has.
I have full pictures of entire build and recent teardown for new buyer only.
Only contact me if you are a serious buyer and have deposit.
So much more I cant even remember. The Chassis is straight and has closer tolerances than a a new tub from PMNA (verified by Park Place motorsports set up jig)
I spent crazy money building and servicing this car.

Reason: typo's and updated.
This car will run in PCA GTA2 and is a winning car.
This car is as fast as a 991.2 CUP and more fun to drive.
No comparison to a stock 997 cup in speed and handling.
GLWS - I have spent a ton of time around this car and know the owner well. I think it's fair to say it's impossible to find a 911 race car this well sorted, this fast, for this price. Seller is a great guy and the car has been worked on by the best in the business.
