Drove the **** out of my 924!!
6000rpm in fifth gear ~160mph sniffing a 2012 911 carrera s's *** around stuttgart's highways. (both on the straights and on the twisties, actually took the lead for a brief moment on the twisties) What can i say...did i feel safe? No...did the 911 get away? Nope!

Long live the 924 turbo!! With mods

Some of the best things I ever do with my old cars.

My little girl hopped in and we went for an evening ride about 7:30 or so with the mostly cool air blowing in on us and talking about the horses, the first day of school, and how old was Mommy when you got this car Daddy.

It wasnt my kind of thing years ago as I wanted babes and checkered flags . I got both on one street ride around tonight.

This weekend I got a few things done on the 951:
- New vac lines
- Venturi delete
- AC delete (didn't seem to work anyway)
- New tires on Fuchs I had in the garage
- Alignment attempted and failed at the local tire dealer (will try to get it an alignment and corener balance this week)

Thx! That was just screwing around with long exposure low light, and some photobucket effects.

AC project is coming along... So much to do, never enough time in a day.

Replaced the braded line from the master cylinder to the brake fluid resivoir. JB welded the dipstick tab back onto the tube, put my transponder of the charger for next week.

Looked at my new front rotors and pads, and was a little bumbled that I'm contracting that work out, just not enough time...

...oh drove it around the block and got some scowls from my wife, it's now where neer street legal, heck, I'd just washed it!

I'm in the middle of filling the trans mount with urethane. So far, so good!
