Racing the 924 - Other RegionsNew Zealand
The Grand Prix series in NZ is sanctioned by Porsche in Germany to be run under the rules the same as they do in England.In New Zealand, all seven(7) classes run all in one race. Up to 35 cars on the start grid at all the national events. Class A is 911 cup Carrera 3.6 L B is 911 RS spec3.2 & 2.7 Litre class C is 911s & sc 204hp class D is 924 turbos & 911sc 180hp class E is all 944 & 924's Supercup Turbo class are 911 Le Mans 3.6 litres and finally Super cup Non-Turbo are 911 RSR and any Porsche modified outside the original German specs. The series is the Bridgestone NZ Porsche Championship and It runs at the NZ Grand Prix race meetings. In regards to our cars being more powerful we run hotted euro spec engines, no air control in New Zealand required, therefore the race cars on the road are just as you have seen in the photos but not with race numbers on - i.e. no insurance, to run a car on the road lowered hot cams weber carbs roll cage race seats and belts and all the sponsors have to be certified by a Transport Engineer and carry a special motor sport of NZ certificate for the police remember we only have 3 million people in NZ and we are all petrol heads. In NZ there would not be any more than say 50 924's running so over here a porsche is very special. |
