_______________________
Provenance:
Originally built by Dave Klym (FabCar), this 993 saw many great years of racing history and was a past PCA National Championship winner. The vehicle was later sent to RedStone Performance and an engine rebuild was performed. In 2017, the vehicle was shipped to John Wright at Wright Motorsports for a refresh. In the last several years, this 993 has seen minimal track time as the current owner has not had time to drive and enjoy the vehicle. In late 2024, the owner decided to part ways with the vehicle and asked The Car Vault to bring the vehicle up to date and install several uprated items including a new ECU and MoTeC management system. Once the work and tuning were completed, the figures recorded prove this vehicle is ready to keep up with purpose built racecars and capable of chasing down many late model exotics.
- Gearbox built by Brian Copans (935 gears to handle the torque)
