I do know with around 200rwhp and I’m assuming about 24-2500lbs weight, it’s a hoot!
I took both my boys (one at a time, no back seat) for a spirited ride yesterday. The 11yo and I got to mess with a Porsche Caymen on some backroads and I’m pretty sure the other driver was a bit frustrated seeing this beater in his rearview. Now I know Caymans aren’t GT3’s but it’s still a Porsche owner and he was still trying to pull away, which wasn’t working. Dad of the year in my boys mind, just the opposite with his mom.

The first time i was ever on the track was with Greg and Charlie in '14 at one of their Shelby nor-cal events (what a class group). I had an instructor named Bill. A bada$$ behind the wheel, took me out in his Cayman S, went wheel to wheel with a Corvette C6R, man he knew how to drive that thing. Even spun off track at 90 and got to watch him correct it. It was awesome fun. But yeh, momentum car at the least.
Great find by the way. Love those cars. BTW, the windshield in that was the easiest and fastest shield i've ever replaced, like 7 minutes included washing it down. I beleive your model was glued in, slows down the installation but still super easy nonetheless. Probably useless info, but hey, what are forums for lol
