924GTP Le Mans


Finishing 7th overall at LE Mans. the 924 GTP LM version is a bit of an underdog legend. The 924 was always considered a bit of a lesser porsche, front engine, VW components, water cooled.

Over the years the car developed until the final incarnation 924 Turbo Carerra with only 400 produced.
By these days standards, it's slow with only 210hp, but when I tried to buy one in 1996 it felt pretty quick to me. 24K in Australia it was stretching my cash, but I should have got it.

It may have strayed me from my rotary obsession.

Anyway,
Entered into LE mans in the final year of the 924, results show that these cars are monsters.
