<img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> Hi from France.

This video shows a race in the french countryside, with a superb 968. A highly modified model ( 280HP extracted from the 3L, no turbo ) for competition.



We call this kind of race a "Rallye", maybe you have heard of it, it takes place on open road. There is one competitor at the time ( 1 pilot and 1 copilot ), and the winner is the one who races in the shortest time on a determined route.



It's very popular in Europe.

Great exhaust sound!

Would be interesting to learn about all of the mods on the car.
Very cool, I've never seen a 968 do Rally before. It looks like a lot of fun.
looks like fun - nice slingshot moves on those button hooks



lol - i heard the rev limiter - time for some reprogramming

I'm not a competition car specialist, so have a look on the photos with your expert eyes !

The exact specifications of the engine are not very clear, and the engine itself isn't shown. If my translation is correct, the description says :



Nice Porsche 968 CS Maxi Gr GT . ( so it's derived from a 968 Club Sport, a variant sold in some european countries, including Germany and France, which was lightened and equipped with specific parts for racing )



Numerous victories in GT group ( a category )

Perfect for the race track, rallye, endurance, course de cote = a kind of race which takes place in the montains )

Passeport technique = ? ( maybe a technical document ), SODEMO 280 HP engine ( what's this ? a marque ? ) , pont court = short differential, hydraulic hand brake.

new brakes, new bilstein schock absorbers.

Lots of spare parts included.

New security hoop. Siège baquet porsche = bucket seats

1 engine + 1 gearbox

16 weels ( ?????), set of polycarbonate parts (wings, doors, , etc …)

1 full leather interior ( original ) in extra

Many body parts ( original ) in extra ( we guess it's the original parts )

More than 25000 € = the amount of extra bills for modif.

Paint at your choice on demand + 1000 €



1 euro is equivalent to 1.3 dollar



I don't know if the "SODEMO 280 HP" engine is a Porsche one. Beside, the owner provides another engine. Nothing is said about the exhaust.
Awesome video! That's one's gonna be downloaded and saved in my 968 collection! I'll be sure to show that to the "tokyo drift" wannabes in their ricer mobiles... <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />
