Description
This rare Porsche 996 RS chassis number WPOZZZ99Z1S692091, one of the 91 built from 2001 to 2003, was sold in the end of 2000 to be entered at the 2001 Daytona 24h for its first race. The car was actually purchased new from Porsche by Mr Stone and was race/entered by Kelly Moss Motorsport in 2001 ALMS including Sebring 12h mainly by Bouchut, Lazzaro and Murry. It was later sold to Del Bello racing, raced Spanish GT and Le Mans 1000Km in 2003. In 2004 it raced again the Spanish GT. In 2005 it was sold to a private and used as a track day car ever since.
