Is that car really called a "widowmaker"? Now a 917-30 or a 935, THAT'S what I call a "Widowmaker."

big power + low grip + no electronics = many rich wifes left without husbands. 917s and 935s were driver by proffessional race drivers and they have no lifes hence no wifes who give a damn

I don't think low grip was a problem with those big tyres.

More what has been afflicting 911s since its birth (altough less so now), tricky handling thank to the rear engined layout.

I know Project Gotham is hardly realistic, but flying around in a 993 GT2 was fun as hell in that game.

the turbo kicking in would have made things even more tricky, more than a normal 911 anyway.

I agree about the 917, but are you refering to the "long tail,or the short tail"? I read
that one of the reasons the MK1 got it's nickname, was because of so much power,
cauisng the back end to lose grip, and control.
