Are "retro hypercars" a thing? The creator of this Porsche 959-inspired heavy-hitting lightweight thinks so, and he's got plenty of machinery to help make the argument. Click the pic for more info and images ⬇️

Kalmar’s tribute to the 959 has been engineered to surpass the original in every way yet remain true to the concept.

A super successful Michelin test means the 9X9 is one step closer to full EU homologation. The subject test is behind us, and it was passed with strong notes from the experienced Michelin test driver. Now we move on to the “clinic tests,” where top speed and pressure determined.

3 sets of tires - lots of fuel… Smiles and wide open eyes tell only half the story... But close to 2G latteral force does explain a lot to the nerds who know. Another successful day behind us... Tomorrow we hope to get the Michelin approval, but who knows.

We have the most trick suspension that I believe exists. It's the same that runs on the Paganis now, where we're able to change the spring rate, which is very handy, because I didn't want active aero. I wanted a light car, I'm taking away all the extra bits and bobs. #kalmar9x9
