Glad to see you're making all of your products available on your web site Greg. And we all forgive your not being able to make a curve cause your straight lines are awesome! Thanks for making 928 products that are better than new, solving problems & answering needs.

Great work Rob, pics always help make things clearer for us less competent 928ers. I felt like I needed to go wash up after seeing all those brand new looking engine bays & parts!

I recall a different quote attributed to GB - something about the cost of racing a Porsche?

Anybody have that one?

Back when I had a shop full of Porsche race cars, instead of 928s....

That quote came about when I got tired of one customer whining about what it cost to maintain his race car:

What part of this did you think was going to be cheap....the "Porsche" or the "Racing"?

l brought an '84 911 (i wanted blending work done) to to a local big auto body shop named Classic Coachworks.

The owner told me: "we don't work on old cars".

Precision is how i'd describe what i see here..The name really fits.

Very Nice

great new site! This should help you sell more of the great stuff you've designed and allow you to concentrate on making more great stuff. Just to note, i believe on the "services" page under "custom engine building" it should read a 50% increase in power rather than a 150% increase...

What part of Porsche Racing did you think was going to be inexpensive? The Porsche part or the Racing part?
