Hello mates. Got 2 good drives with Wilson the white rebel 944 this weekend. Thought maybe some of you'd like to see some pictures.

On the outside Wilson looks so crappy. I am truly ashamed of myself. But he's got the heart of a lion king. I love Wilson.

Looks like a fun grade...in 3rd.

I usually do -1psi to keep the contact patch fat at elevation...a mile high or more.

Love it. Thanks for sharing!

Sweet, that is a great road! You need some rally style mud flaps on that thing. Is that a 924 turbo hood scoop on the roof?

Noahs944

Thanks guys for your comments! Thomas, so you are saying you'll drop the air pressure in the tires for gravel travel?

Disasterman,
YES. I have material in the garage to make flaps... I think I'll make fronts & rears because the "patina" is getting pretty bad.

Hood scoop: here's the scoop (teehee): $40 Walmart "carbon look" riveted to the roof then used a 4" (?)
hole & plumbers components to pressurize the cab. When on *VERY* dry/dusty roads, then some dust still comes in the cab, so I open up the quarter window "snap caps" and it really helps.

My favorite twisty road is +4500' (-2psi) and normally 10*F cooler (+1psi), so I drop a pound to keep a good contact patch. I usually look at the scrub line on the sidewall.

Some tires have indicators. These tires could use an extra quarter of a pound but I would need a better gauge.

Thats a great idea! I should start paying more attention. Thanks for the pic mate.
