2007 Racing Season
Our stated goal for this season was to qualify for an invitation to the 2007 SCCA National Championship Run-Offs to be held in Topeka, KS in October. Thus far, our season has come together after a relatively slow beginning, with a win at Daytona.This victory puts us at the top of the SEDiv F Production class points and in a good position to reach our goal of qualifying for the Run-Offs.

Daytona Recap - after a so-so qualifying we started the race from 5th position on the FP grid. A good start allowed us to take the class lead by the third turn, however at the turn exit, minor contact induced a spin, loosing all track position. Recovering quickly from the off-track excursion, we managed to close on the field and eventually re-claim the class lead in the 5th lap and continued to the finish without any further incidents. This was an impressive and much needed win for us.

With the SEDiv National schedule just past the midway point, we continue to work diligently to improve our performance and consistency in preparation for the SCCA National Run-Offs.

 

2006 Racing Program

Troysport Performance Group, in collaboration with Checkpoint Engineering, will campaign a new Porsche 912 Targa during the 2006 race season. For the past four years, this car was seen in competition only in the Midwest . This year however, the owners have elected to broaden their resume by bringing the car to Florida to race in the highly competitive SCCA SEDiv. The car was recently entered at Moroso and ran flawlessly, finishing first in class and third overall. With first race results like these everyone is anticipating a wonderful year.

The main focus for this season will be to compete successfully in the SARRC championship. The team also plans to compete in selected SEDiv National races in preparation for the SCCA National Championships in Topeka Kansas next year.

Engine testing for the 912 has provided encouraging results with the 1.6L engine producing more power than was expected. Custom camshafts were installed to improve both drivability and to achieve maximum power output. The camshafts profile has been tailored to reap the fullest advantage of various engine parameters within the operational RPM range which include: combustion chamber volume, compression ratio, and intake port design. Troysport will publish engine dyno results shortly which have already exceeded 200hp with a .040” over engine.

Troysport will be campaigning the blue 912 in the National Porsche Club Racing GT-6R Class while maintaining our primary focus with this car on the 2007 SCCA National Championship Runoffs.
