Porsche 911 Cup 3.8 RSR EVO Rare Unique Factory Built Race Vintage Collector

1995 Porsche 911 Race Description

Last of the air-cooled,993 RS based factory built CUP car.
Fully developed up to the 3.8 RSR Evolution (EVO) level by Porsche Motorsport North America.
This is the ONLY 1995 CUP car that was upgraded by the Factory to the 1997 3.8 RSR EVO level.
This is a 1 of 1 build by PORSCHE.
The original owner purchased this 1995 CUP directly from PORSCHE.Complete and original documentation, invoices and correspondence with PORSCHE executive management is included with this sale. This vehicles pedigree is iron-clad. PORSCHE only sold CUP cars to those who would participate in their racing series - in 1995 it was known as the CARRERA CUP. Yet this car never competed professionally. It has been driven by only two owner-drivers, exclusively in amateur events - the first owner being the Porsche Club of America (PCA) chief driving instructor for the Chicago Region. The paint (Grand Prix white) is original with no accidents. Typical race defects in paint chips and tire scraps. The rear bumper was repainted to eliminate yellowing from exhaust heat. This vehicle was never abused and extremely well maintained.
PORSCHE CUP cars are extremely low production models. In this case, a 1995 993 RS was pulled from the assembly line to create a CUP car. Approximately 374 993 based CUP's were built during the 5 year period between 1994 and 1998. A significant portion of that production total have been destroyed in racing incidents, used up or end-user modified from their original configurationduring competition use.
During 1996 the factory continued to developimprovementsforits CUP cars.The original owner contracted with PORSCHE to bring his car up to the factories planned 1997 development level. In 1997, the factory produced only a handful of RSR Sprint type motors for selective use in 1997 CUP cars. They are singularly unique power plants. The sprint motor is a 3.8 liter, 2 valve per cylinder, special camshafts, butterfly valved, highly modified engine. It contains mostly R type PORSCHE racing parts, including many that are fabricated by hand and some created out of titanium. The engine is coupled with unique resonance controlled intake runners producing approximately 390 SAE HP. Porsche made additional changes to the RSR in 1997 so they were also made to this car - installed by ANDIAL. These included extensivebodywork, center lock wheeland suspension upgrades of OEM R Porsche parts as installed on the RSR for 1997.
The original owner then added a Teilert Engineering slide valve induction system, shelving the CUP butterfly valves. Only a handful of these were produced as they were hand crafted by this German Engineering firm. The CUP Motronic ECM was shelved and replaced by a PORSCHE ECM modified unit to accept this induction combination. When this setup is installed on a Sprintmotor it produces approximately 410 SAE HP.
The engine is routinely run to operating temperature using leaded 110 octane race fuel. Regular oil changes are performed using Mobil 15W-50.
An endurance fuel cell was added with the quick fill option. The transmission is a G50-32 with harmonized gearing,steel syncros and QUAIFFE diff. The original 60/40 diff was shelved.
This car is a pleasure to operate as it has racing ABS and power steering, yes, power steering. The manual steering rack was removed and shelved.
The body still wears livery stickers for a German entrant in the 1995 CUP series. Original NOS CUP series stickers are also available from us.
Shelved spares are all in usable to excellent condition and are available separately for sale.
I also have model specific maintenance equipment and pit carts available separately for sale.
All competition logbooks since original purchase will be included in the sale. These include SVRA for vintage racing.This is a turn-key race car while at the same time an historic and unique item. Easily brought to concurs condition. Vehicle located in Illinois. I am the second owner.
This vehicle was used several times as a reference in "993 - The Essential Companion" by A. Streather. This is a must have reference book for 993 owners and admirers.
