Here's a photo from the '96 R&T.

 

The winner was 1989 Porsche Turbo with a modified motor putting out 600hp. The 2nd place car was a stock 993-based 1996 Porsche Turbo. Many cars have gone faster since then!

 

That is the Porsche power train I now have. After Neil Harvey built that car for a guy names Carl Akins, he built another one for an attorney in Las Vegas who wanted MORE. And being in Las Vegas, the town famous for 108 degree weather, the attorney wanted to stay cool. So they took an 87 slant nose 930 and modified it completely. And the attorney wanted more power. That meant a bigger turbo and more exotic engine work. So my car has the Porsche 962 race engine with twin plug heads, titanium rods, specially forged Mahle pistons, 20 quart capacity dry sump, 27 gallon fuel safe fuel cell, tripple fuel pumps and a huge K33 turbo. The car has four (4) A/C condensors with fans, two huge front mounted oil coolers with fans, and enough fuses and controls to power the shuttle. The full width intercooler has two draw down fans of its own. The ECU has 5 active map programs to choose from going from 1) let's just haul ass to 5) call the priest, death is imminent. I leave it on 1.

 

And by the way, the car has full roll bar cage, Reccaro race seats, 6 point harnesses and other stuff that makes it a bear to drive on the streets. Oh, and the brakes squeal loud enough to hurt little children in nearby schools. Here is a picture of my engine at Neil's shop;
