LITHUANIAN PORSCHE CLUB |
1988 944 Turbo S
At first the car was prepared as club sport car, later Lithuanian Porsche club PORKER discovered that this car is very competitive in professional racing in Lithuania as well. So we created Porsche club racing team with few enthusiastic people, collected the budget and on 2005 we took part in first professional racing event in Lithuania called Horn Grand Prix 1003 km. It is endurance racing for 1003 km or maximum 10 hours non stop race. It is the biggest racing event in Baltic States. Last year we participated in this event, won the third training and took 7th place in qualification results. but later we had big problems with air/fuel ratio, 2 times our Porsche blow the engine gasket and our racing was finished. For 2006 year Horn Grand Prix 1000km racing we prepared more carefully, and we hope we solved the air/fuel ratio problem with engine management system, because original computer - not good enough with original car computer, also we improve transmission with 944 S2 gearbox with QUAIFE differential – adapted to special race track, better turbocharger from Lindsey Racing, also better oil cooling system and new brake kit.

WHEELS & TIRESBBS 18’ motorsport wheels, with Yokohama slick tires. INTERIORSabelt motorsport seat and sparco belts. TRANSMISSION:We will use for 2006 racing Porsche 944 S2 gearbox, because shifts are shorter- and better for that special race track, and QUAIFE differential from Lindsey racing motorSport clutch for 951 turbo.
