This RoW-spec 1985 Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe was reportedly purchased by Brumos racing driver J.C. France over 20 years ago and converted into a purpose-built race car. With work performed by Kennedy Motorsports in Daytona Beach, Florida, the car features an upgraded Garret turbocharger, Haltech Elite ECU, a custom intercooler, Elephant Racing coilovers, 993 brakes, 934.5-style bodywork, and a racing cockpit with a fully welded roll cage. This 911 Turbo was raced by J.C. France until 2012 when it was purchased by another enthusiast who raced the car until the seller’s acquisition in 2018. Benefitting from a recent engine and transmission rebuild, this custom 930 race car is now being offered for auction out of Florida.

Finished in Black with an Interscope-themed vinyl racing livery, this 930 has been modified with a 934.5-style front spoiler, decklid, and rear wing along with a lightweight fiberglass hood and door panels. Other equipment includes front and rear tow hooks, hood pins, an external cutoff switch, a center-mounted exhaust pipe, Lexan windows, body-colored headlamp covers, red brake calipers, and aftermarket three-piece wheels dressed in Pirelli DH racing slicks. The seller notes that the tires show approximately 75% tread depth and the car’s exterior shows some minor chips and scratches from track use. Additionally, two layers of windshield protection film have been applied, and the windshield is said to remain in good condition beneath the film. Additional images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.

The stripped-out racing cockpit features an orange-painted full roll cage, a carbon fiber dashboard cover, a three-spoke MOMO steering wheel, and a MOMO bucket seat. Other accessories include aluminum Rennline track mats and pedals, a Fabcar shifter, OMP safety harnesses, a fire suppression system, and a digital Haltech gauge. The seller adds that the cabin is prewired for radios and shift lights and that the fire bottle needs to be recertified before racing.

The 3.3-liter flat-six engine has been upgraded with a larger Garrett turbocharger, a custom full-width intercooler, a Turbosmart wastegate, headers, an enlarged front-mounted oil cooler, and a Haltech Elite ECU. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a factory 4-speed manual transmission. The car also features a FuelSafe fuel cell, 993-generation brakes, slotted front rotors, stainless-steel braided brake lines, 935-style rear trailing arms, and adjustable Elephant Racing coilovers. The seller notes a new fuel bladder has been recently installed and the engine and transmission were rebuilt within the last 10 hours of use. The suspension is also recommended for service.

This race car is offered with a bill of sale. 

  

The seller would like you to know: “Just raced this spring HSR Sebring. I have two other Porsche race cars, a 997.2 GT3 Cup and a Cayman Interseries, just not enough time for all three.  The Turbo is a great car, needs a new good home. This is a RACE CAR.  It is not perfect.  It looks great in the pictures, and in person, gets lots of attention on the track and in the paddock, but it is a RACE CAR, not a show car, it is not perfect.”

    Woo hoo. What a blast it must be to drive this very cool Porsche.
    Man if I had money to burn and a place to put this, I’d be all over this Porsche, and who wouldn’t
    Here in Sonoma, California you could raise this at two or three spots, including Laguna, Sears Point or Willow Springs and I think there’s another one local track I mean
    Looks like a nice race build
    Good luck all

  • RussellWitt (seller) 1 week, 6 daysago

    Per the original build notes the car weighed 'dry' at just under 2400 lbs. A few things, like front bumper and rear deck/wing have been modified from original build, larger oil cooler, and other miscellaneous upgrades. So I would suspect it's about 2500 lbs now.

  • RussellWitt (seller) 1 week, 6 daysago

    @ThePorscheDoc - There is a full set of spare wheels. Folder full of records back to original build. But no spare body parts or anything like that.

  • ThePorscheDoc (registered bidder) 1 week, 6 daysago

    Are there any spares? Wheels ect...

  • CharlieFerer (registered bidder) 2 weeks, 2 daysago

    @RussellWitt Thank you!

  • RussellWitt (seller) 2 weeks, 2 daysago

    @CharlieFerer -Sorry for the late reply.....family visiting. I will talk with the engine builder tomorrow, try to get you some info, it has not been dyno'ed. I just never really saw the need. Yes I have the title, signed by the previous owner. Yes the VIN is on the car, will get a pic of that and add to gallery. I will also post some video from Sebring.

  • CharlieFerer (registered bidder) 2 weeks, 2 daysago

    Hello! Please reply with:
    Weight of car
    Dyno/whp numbers from motor/gearbox rebuild
    Title to car: Yes or no
    VIN on car: Yes or no
    GoPro footage you can post of Sebring race or in car video footage on track to see performance.

    Thank you!
