Default I'm so excited!!

Hey everyone, my name is Chase. I live in Orlando, Fl. I've been doing a blog website for little over a year about things I like to post in the car world www.motoracingltd.com Just recently my family and I were thinking of getting a "track car" so i wouldn't have to use my daily Acura on the legendary tracks. A few cars like the S2000, STI, and EVO came to mind, but then I came across this 1981 911SC with only 70,000 miles and a great price. Looking more into I found how amazing this car was, plus all the racing heritage I could ever need. I couldn't be happier with this car! So about 2 weeks ago we bought it for a cheap price. I think we will use it on the street for a bit, then hopefully in a year turn it into a track car.
I am very excited to learn as much as I can about this great society of the 911.
Thanks in advance for any tips, suggestions...

P.S. the M is my roomate

Yeah, really.....

Well, that compact size is also a benefit on the track of course.

Looks great, have fun!

Nice car, maybe a bit too nice to turn into a track car? You made the right choice considering the other candidates.

Yep, those M5's take up a lot of room when they're all squirrelly as they're pushed from behind going up the mountains. Makes 'em hard to pass. They sound nice though.

It sure looks like it but they only make 406 of those and only in 1980. Mine is an 81' and I'm sure that the price would have been much more than what we paid
