Perhaps the cold air will help the hangover! Lol

Moved it to Sunday just for you Rick so that you can put gas an oil in it tomorrow.

See you guys tomorrow!

had a great time. nice course. was good to finally drive the car. thanks for putting it together.

[968TDG]

Ditto, I love that course and it was such a good day to be in a Porsche. I had fun trying to keep pace with you two supercharger bastards. While I wasn't pushing on the acceleration, it was very clear how much faster you were in a straight line. Makes me feel like I'm in a momentum car.

I took some video, I'll post something once iMovie stops crashing.

Clearly you need to buy one of the last sc's before they are gone! Or you will forever rue your decision. Lol

Interesting comment TDG. I remember just how fast the car felt the first week or so after Bob installed the SC. Now it's the new normal. My wheels/tires are really not up to the task though, which means I have to brake harder and then I realize just how common the brake set up is on the car. So, if I put bigger wheels, stickier tires, and better brakes on, then the suspension will suffer. Woah is me....

Thanks both of you for stopping by and running the course. I always have a great time on that ride and its more fun to share it with friends. We'll do it again sometime and hopefully catch a few more SoCal locals.

Clear skies, good friends, a fast track, and a great car - what a nice way to burn up a Saturday morning.

I chipped 1/2" of ice out of my driveway...no 968 fun for me this weekend

We plowed off 9''. I had some difficulty getting the Infiniti in as the entrance is on slight slant and I had to stop to turn off the alarm and open the door! Just a slight rock. Oh wonderful winter. More snow tonite and tomorrow!

Rap, didn't we just discuss in another thread the advantages of wintertyres? Lol

[Rap]

Yes indeed. But they are not perfect, hence the rocking skill while not whacking the sides of the entrance as you moved it forward. I just drove a SUV with summer tires from the road outside my development to my garage. The roads are snow and ice covered as they will be until the end of winter. Just the slightest tap on the brakes made me think for a moment "aut oh". Snow tires to come!

Yup, even 4x4 vehicles need at least some grip.
