It's actually super quiet - even at full tilt it's not nearly as bad as I thought.

Car is a Juno LMP3/CN car - it has a cool history.
Ran all the big tracks and have data from:
Le Mans
Nurburgring
Spa
Monza
Silverstone
Paul Ricard
Jarama

Won the title in Europe in 2009 and was a backup team car in 2010.

Here is a video of its sister car from the May long weekend.

Trailer? I'm thinking just up and down the alley........





On a more serious note, we will be looking for crew again this year if anyone wants to come out.

First event is the Spokane Grand Prix on July 13-15

Other events will be Portland, Miller, Thunderhill. We will run limited this year and plan to do the 24 hour races next year.

Here is a link to last years crew callout if you want to learn more.
PM me for more info as well.

That was unexpected.

But one thing I don't get is where does the plate go?

Lol... no doubt. If it isn't nearing 1000hp, it's not worth being on the pavement.

OP: I have no idea where you plan on driving that thing and how often - which leads me to wonder if it was at all a sound investment.

However - with that said, I think it takes the cake for one of the coolest cars owned by a Beyond member!

Congrats! I didn't know you were back from South America. Was Anthony in on the purchase? I know he was talking about these cars too.

Hello Erik,

Give me a call I'm back at Porsche. I wanted to speak with you about some upcoming stuff to collaborate on.

No, Anthony was not on this. We tried a 3 pack deal last year, but it fell through.

I suspect he will be getting one soon!

Cheers

Kloubek, I bought some wheels from you for my 964. It's a full on race car for the series we are running. I assure you it be used! Just not around here.

Congratulations on the purchase.

It might be fast but I bet you had more fun 'driving' the Ural.
