Rod Birley should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I sold the car to Mick Quaife, then Warwick used it in a few rallycross events.

Whoops, sorry about that! I got the pic from a friend after we'd swapped some images online and didn't know it's origins.
Please accept my apollogies...

Those Porsches must be the most ugly RX cars ever! The Kumpen / van de Ven looked better... But certainly not as good looking as a standard 997 GT2... Thank god Alamaki moved too the more beautiful T16 E2 in the end!

POV! For me that Paul Kumpen/Jo van de Ven 911 was nearly as ugly as that so-called 959 from Norway. And that "Doodah 959 Doodah" is even more ugly than Guttorm Lindefjell’s and Vidar Christensen’s 1999 Daewoo Nubiras.

Yes! Altough judging the stories the Porsches were absolute animals in the engine department... I still would have the pleasant to watch T16...
