I can pick up a viper for 10k and make it a beater, but why do it to a 911 if you have nothing but a down value? If you wanna race to the limits of your body, PM me and come run a kart on a mini road course. Your P-ride will become a luxury.

Ugh... Your post is just rediculous lol but I will take it easy on you since you have 27 posts and I'm feeling nice

Oh but you can Mark. We are working on a Turbo GSX-R 1000 motored shifter cart!!!

Ok I kid but that would be sick!!

I don't know why this guy makes it sound bad that we modify our 996/997 this way. Our kit is similar to Marks but it also takes a lot of wiring too, so I guess mine is even more worse off!!

I'm the lucky owner of the car in Mark's videos. I can't wait to get it once he's done with everything.

Keep it out of the ditch Mark

I'm not intending to make it sound bad, and I've had 900hp NOS'd Vipers and some other ridiculously tuned rides in the garage. I just don't see the need with my Porsche. My karts aren't anything different from other 125cc shifter, that's just where I get my cheap thrills. You can flame away, but there's still something to be said for not having to rebuild a 150k ride for ****s and giggles and replace $1600 in rubber to prove something that few care about. I have my ride cause I like it, as is. I'm not trying to rag on anyone for for tuning theirs. Its just that having blown up a couple cars before and done some extreemly costly repairs out of ego, I dont feel the need to do it again.

BTW, there are GXXR Karts out there.
