It looks like 2012 will have more track days for my 924S, and I'm starting to get (relatively) faster, so I think the big projects for this winter will mainly revolve around track safety:

- Roll bar
- 6-pt. harnesses
- Racing buckets

If I have time/budget leftover after that, I would really like to repaint my car and maybe get some mild suspension lowering done.

I also have a new dash and center console waiting to go in, but that might be left until next winter

Fix the little dents in the bodywork, get a full respray, dash repair, interior retrim, decent audio setup, refurb the wheels, maybe a CGT kit without the scoop.

New tires, have the wheels refinished and replace the sway bar bushings.

I picked my 87 944 up in Santa Fe and drove 3 days to SW Florida. This was a great, comfortable road car. Definitely a GTcar.

Paint, and maybe re-upholster the seats. Just installed a MAF in December so no more mods for a while.

Refinish the 951 Fuchs I picked up last week. Fix the AC, Sunroof and a few nagging little electrical probs. Do a 968 engine swap and transform it into an "S3".
