Title: Solved: Wendax 930 - Zynki Power High Speed Le Mans Turbo
Post by: Wendax on June 12, 2013, 02:36:39 AM: Despite this puzzle being #930, this is not a Porsche turbo.

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

No idea - must be a homebrew special - North American

Zynki Power Le Mans Turbo, from Germany, circa 2000/2003, 5.5 V10, 558bhp, 990kg, apparently BMW based but the builder seems to like comparing it to Porsches (Carrera GT, 959, 718 etc)

The designer/builder/seller has a website on this car

Post by: Wendax on July 14, 2013, 07:33:14 AM: Yes, based on a BMW 2002 turbo. Full name should be Zynki Power High Speed Le Mans Turbo. Official owner is Zynki's 91-year-old mother. Hard to imagine her behind the wheel. ;D
