Up for sale is my weekend fun toy! I take this car to a couple autocross events per year, and one track day per year. Last year was Pocono North, this year was Thompson Motor speedway. Also will make a good daily driver, very reliable. Mechanically very good condition, especially considering this is a 27 year old car. It has limited slip differential, upgraded fuel injectors, stainless braided fuel lines, new fuel pressure regulator, mass air-flow sensor and chip upgrade. In the last 3000 miles I’ve done: new pagid RS brake pads, stainless braided brake lines, dot 5, synth fluids, engine head, gasket, valves, guides, timing belt, bilstein front suspension, re-indexed rear torsion bars, new rear bushings, high-end mild track setup and suspension tuning done by Fairfield county motorsports. Brake master cylinder done 5000 miles ago. Two sets of tires, currently has the Toyo Proxy R888 R-compound track tires with only 3 heat cycles. Numerous other work done as needed. I have all paperwork and receipts. It will probably need rotors all around within a year. They are cross-drilled & slotted, and the slots are showing wear. You will also need to swap the other tires back on for winter. The pictures make the exterior look great, however there is extensive paint and clear coat peeling. There is no rust, no dents. Dash has a couple of cracks, seats are dirty but otherwise are in good shape with no rips or tears. If you would like any additional pics, please contact me. I require a non-refundable $500 deposit at auction end, and balance due in-person, cash-only. I have the clean title in-hand. I can be reached at ‘meldavey at gmail dot com’ or (860) 399 one eight four three. Car is located in Westbrook, CT. |

Investigators blame speed in fatal Paul Walker crash
Wed, 26 Mar 2014When the tragic news first came in that actor Paul Walker had been killed in a car crash, family, friends and fans were left searching for answers. They now have at least one key question answered, with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department blaming "unsafe speed" for the fatal accident.
According to a statement released by the LACSD, "Investigators determined the cause of the fatal solo-vehicle collision was unsafe speed for the roadway conditions". The investigation into the November, 2013 crash determined that Walker's 2005 Porsche Carrera GT had been driven by his business partner and racer, Roger Rodas, at speeds between 80 and 93 miles per hour - less than the 100+ mph initially suspected, but still far too fast for the road on which they were traveling, which carried a posted limit of 45 mph.
In the investigation into the death of the Fast & Furious star and his friend, some people were quick to finger the Porsche in which they were riding as the culprit. The Carrera GT does, after all, have the reputation of being a notoriously difficult car to control. But after an exhaustive investigation, law enforcement officials in California have vindicated the car and dismissed any mechanical fault as the cause of the accident.
Jack Olsen built one Porsche to do it all
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Jack Olsen has built himself a lair called the 12-Gauge Garage, and inside that garage he built a lairy Porsche 911 nicknamed Black Beauty II. Although it looks like one of Stuttgart's models from the sixties or seventies, it is actually four decades of 911 gubbins from 1965 to 2000 thrown under one shell: the lightweight body is from 1972, the transaxle from 1977, the brakes from a 1986 Turbo, the engine from 1995, for example. It weighs 2,400 pounds and it's got 272 horsepower to get it going, but it's still a pure Porsche, Olsen saying, "If you stop thinking about what you're doing, it will remind you in very abrupt ways."
Olsen said the real point has been to have one car that does it all, so he does everything in his 911 from neighborhood runs to 7-11 to track racing - he loads the aero bits in the car and bolts them on trackside. And he says he'll never stop tweaking the suspension.
You can watch and hear the rest in Olsen's words in the video below.
Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos
Thu, 12 Dec 2013With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.
