Vehicle Details

  • Rear Wing & Aerodynamic Aids

Beginning life as a 1980 Porsche 930 Turbo Coupe, this 911 was converted into a race car under original ownership by Peter and Trevor Dawes of Dawes Motorsports in 1995.

It features a custom 2.9-liter flat-six engine with twin-plug heads, a Clewett crank fire ignition system, PMO carburetors, DC 80 Dougherty Racing camshafts, and a custom exhaust system. The rear wheels are driven through a rebuilt 5-speed 915 manual transaxle with short-ratio gears, a locking differential, and a JB Racing ULTRA-LITE flywheel and clutch.

The car is also fitted with fiberglass IROC-style bumpers, steel rear fender flares, carbon fiber doors, Lexan windows, 935-style front A-arms, adjustable Von Shocks RSR coilovers, adjustable sway bars, a full roll cage, a fire suppression system, a Sabelt racing seat, a WEVO shifter, and 18” Forgeline wheels.

Successfully campaigned until its last race in 2021 and driven approximately 3 hours since the last engine rebuild, this twin-plug 911 race car is now being offered for auction out of Tennessee.
