Why the Porsche 944 Turbo Cup is a Great RAD-era Race Car

The 944 Turbo Cup is the car that started Porsche in Cup racing. That makes it a factory-built race car yet it’s still mostly based on the street car-so parts are available. Does that make the 944 Turbo Cup the ultimate RADwood era race car?

Thanks to our friends at Classic Motorsports for sharing the RAD story about these fun-to-race factory lightweight 944s. They are an underrated gem, IMHO.

Right. Bigger Turbo = 400 HP

I have a 86 turbo, and I own every 944 cup racing poster.
