I've had one of my 996 Cup Cars licensed for street use for a few months. Nothing beats the thumbs up (and sometimes thumbs down!) from fellow motorists. Even had a trooper pass me then pull over a Tesla :-)
I can’t believe you don’t have ear plugs in! I drove mine to some car event down the street and couldn’t believe how loud the gear whine was. I can’t wait to see it and watch you try a 3 point turn!
So do you drive it to work and back and just picking up scrambled eggs from the grocery store? 😆
This would make owning a cup car a little more attractive if you could also occasionally enjoy it on the street between track days. Real question is how did you do that?

This is beyond cool. I have driven mine a couple of times around the block in my local village (mostly to avoid 3 point turns) and it’s an experience!
Please tell us what you have done to the car to make it road worthy. Suspension? Cooling fans? Clutch? Etc?
Same suspension (which is a fancy JRZ setup just raises ride height by an inch or so. Clutch. Is a 4.0L RS street clutch. And yes some super duper cooling fans added. Which make the cabin like a damn Sauna. But fine.
This is the same car that was used to model the early Forza 1 and 2 games. Mike Fitzgerald's 2003 World Challenge 996. Chassis is super clean never hit. It's not a wrap - it's paint 😂
Engine is a spare Farnbacher 997 cup engine from grand am days in 08-09 era. Prob 40 more hp than a regular 3.6L cup.
