The 924 Carrera was a homologation model built to qualify the 924 model to race in Group 4. One of the great supercars of the 1980s, the 924 Carrera was considered by many to have better handling characteristics than Porsche’s flagship 911. The book features interviews with many of those involved with the car at the time together with race stories, statistics, and a unique exposé of component failures during racing.
Roy Smith's aim in this book is, as before in his previous work, is to record another first in English for future generations: this time the story of a remarkable car overshadowed by the fame of its siblings.
Here we see a change of direction for Roy away from French subjects to a German one with an in-depth study of the 924 Carrera GT, from homolgation special to championship winning rally car and class winner at Le Mans. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
perfect timing! I'm currently rebuilding our 924 Carrera GT and hope to have it back on the road after Xmas - so this is great motivation. We used to race one of these in the early 2000's - unfortunately, the "keep it stock" regulations meant the intercooler got too hot in racing and we couldn't keep the power rating quoted. No problem on the road, though. now I know what I want for Xmas...
The coolest Porsche I’ve ever laid my eyes on. I wish I had one. I can settle for 944...that’s all I was able to afford.
