The Car - Porsche 911 Racecar Specifications
The SavvyIT sponsored Porsche 911 is predominately competing in the NSW Production Sports Car Championship series, designed with optimal power to weight for B Class competition. A few other select state based categories are also sometimes attended either for track time or just plain fun, such as the NSW based Festival of Sporting Cars series or the iRace Series. The car is actively undergoing development and refinement during the season, focusing on areas where the greatest benefits can be achieved, such engine tuning, optimal weight distribution, weight reduction and suspension tuning. Motorsport is a team sport and without the support from those special persons and businesses listed below (credits), we would not be able to exist. A big thank you for your ongoing support and drive for perfection.
