Anyone else hear anything?
Buddy,

Rock, rock till you drop..

Rock, rock never stop!!

Take the M96 and install 3.8 pistons and put on the TPC supercharger and walk the GT3..

Add a single KKK26/29 snail aft of the cats to the M96 and no smog problems and walk Vipers faster than Buddy the Beagle!!

Well, the writting is on the wall, the 996 GT and Turbo cars is the end of dry sump, real race car engines.

Sad day, really. No more Turbo with a real dry sump engine. No more GT3 with dry sump engine and Ti con rods.

All we have left are VW trucks, punched out Boxster engine 911 poseur mobiles, and badge unworthy Turbo and GT's.

No reason for despair. The GT and Turbo engines will use the tried and true 964 block. Autoweek has got it wrong. As for Boxster being a poseur car, it´s more agile than a Turbo, so what gives?
