Headed out early in the morning to the Texas Mile in Goliad. Looks to be about a two hour trip each way. Looking forward to airing out the 951. Gave Code Red a bath today and she cleaned up mighty pretty!



Got the digital all charged up so I can post shots of Red1 and his runs afterwards. Should be a fine time!

 

Keith- where's the garage?? It's not around your car. should we send a search part out for a missing garage?

J/K.

 

icat, I love your car, it looks so good in those cups!

 

She's looking great, Keith! I agree with 9fitty1, those cups look good! I'll try to take some pictures sometime soon while on a drive and share them here.

 

Now that's FUNNY.

Garage does appear to be missing. Maybe this is the year Code Red goes out. I'll see if I can dig up a garage pic later today.

 

I'm still waiting for the ugly weather to go away so I can wash my car.

THEN I'll have pics!

Action shots from a few weeks back, playing tag with an early 911.....











Rich and Icat, your cars look tasty as usual ............

 

Nice pics guys! Tifo the car looks excellent under power with those wheels!!

 

who's the scary-lookin guy?

 

My friend Eric, who goes by "NO-H20" here on Rennlist (he has a 911SC). he normally does not look that scary, he was just being silly.

 

Gotta agree with Sam Tifo:

Rich, Keith, I'm quite jealous. I want to get my car out sooooooo bad! Looking good gentlemen!

 

On a related note...what's the skinny on those "cup" wheels on the red 951 at the top of the thread? The 5-spoke guys?

Size, price, availability? I always liked the way those looked on 44's.

 

Those are standard Porsche issue Cup wheels off a 993. Fronts are 17x7 and rears are 17x9. The wheels were purchased from a local 911 speed shop for $800 for the set of 4 and then sent out for refinishing at a cost of $100 each. Total out lay for wheels was $1200. Since they are on an 86 (early offset) I had to go with 21mm spacers in front and 28mm spacers in the rear. Tires are Bridgestone S03's and yes - I like them very much!
If you are inquiring as to fitment on your 88, then you don't need the spacers - they'll bolt right on.

 

Wow Rich. Fresh paint really did wonders for your car.
