Update on RS Spyder Chassis no.

An aside which I've not fully got straight yet.

When the car was Launches it was the Porsche RS Spyder - but was known also as the 9R6. The Evo I have seen referred to by Porsche in internal documents as both the 9R6 2007 and the MY07...

anyone got any ideas?

Good question, I also asked this Porsche staff in Weissach earlier this year. They refer to the EVO Spyder as MY07 or simply as „the new one“. It´s still the 9R6 as the tub is still more less the same.

ss_collins · 3 Jan 2008, 23:50 (Ref:2098949)

Its been retested to some extent - as it has different roll hoops.

What kind of numbering convention gives - 9R6 - MY07... ? eh?

and chassis 710 - whos got that then?

ThePenguin · 14 Apr 2008, 04:22 (Ref:2176820)

Maybe Conzus Motorsports has the 710, if they did get a chassis. Here are the new Penske chassis numbers for 08.

6 Team Penske-Porsche RS Spyder #801
7 Team Penske-Porsche RS Spyder #802

First off, this has got to be the greatest website ever! I am addicted to knowing chassis numbers and info on each chassis, etc. I look forward to spending alot of time here!

As for chassis 710, this car was at Rennsport Reunion III at Daytona in November. The car was in DHL/Penske #7 livery and was being driven by Patrick Long...I have yet to look at my chassis tag pictures from Mid Ohio and Petit from last year so I do not know if they raced 710 or not, but 710 was at Rennsport as a Penske car. Anyone seen it since?

Warm welcome and thanks for kind remarks. Hope you do indeed spend a lot of time in here, and maybe also contribute to our collective knowledge!

Being that the CET program fell apart before it ever got off the ground, I don't believe that chassis 710 was ever built.

The only way it may exist is if it was used in the newly rebuilt Dyson #16 car. But I think the new Dyson car is probably #803 as it said in an article that the new car was built using the 15th tub made.

CET got chassis 706, Conzus Motorsports was the program that never got off the ground.

I know that. I'm saying I think 710 would have been CET's 2nd car which they never bought since things hit the proverbial fan.

That wasn´t 710, that was 707.

Evidently the new Cytosport car is 9R6 712 after needing a new tub as a result of Picketts crash at Mid Ohio.
