I'd be up for it if you'll have lesser cars in the group.

Certainly! I have friends with a Cayman GTS and a Cayman R that I sometimes meet up with, often at the Dripping Springs Cars and Coffee event. Then we pick a destination and a group of us often including other cars head out for a Sunday morning run.
But I also often drive out more on my own to the northwest (from Austin) than they tend to want to go. Once I get a car in hand again maybe we'll set up a Hill Country drives thread to organize some of these... unless someone else opts to start one first.
I also at times go on PCA-organized drives but those are often much more conservative than what I'm looking for.

This map shows a fair representation of the areas we tend to stick to, although being that I launch from Austin I only infrequently range out to the farthest west extents of that area.

Yes, I suppose by technical definition but I'm looking for excuses for people to take pictures of their cars to share. Love seeing the cars and all of the places the pictures are coming from so "wing" being the generic and all encompassing term in this case.

I'm looking forward to seeing tons of picture from you once your car comes out con rod jail.

@mprog DBJ & JRZ?

If JRZ, do the mini-mufflers make a noticeable difference?

DBJ wing and JCR exhaust.

The clamp on silencers replace the tips, and make a very big difference. At least 5 dB, likely more. With my JCR race pipe at Laguna Seca and the silencer tips my max noise level after 3 laps was 85.8dB.
So having learned that, I ordered the over axel pipe (should add 3dB, and therefore I’ll still be under). 😂

Thx; I may have to order a set when I start running at noise limited tracks.

Yes it was. It is amazing. Best driving car I've ever owned...and I've owned a couple.
