I have a '73 911E.
Two problems with racing it.
1- expense...pranging the fender is way more expensive than pranging an old jap fender. Suspension parts are more money..just about everything is more $. But the engine...thats where the expense really begins! Plus the number of guys who can tune the MFI is dwindling...and the backlog is growing.
2- Competiveness. At the weights they set, and the power you can get from the 2.4, it's just not going to cut it. I see no way to get 190 or so RWHP out of the 2.4 E or S.
On the flip side, I would LOVE to do it...it would be a HOOT to drive...but the expense/reward ratio seems weak.
