Thanks to Stephen Porter, I got my first ride in a 928 - Sharky no less. I am probably ruined by the sorted(ness) of Sharky and S4 power, but I am more inspired than ever to get one of my early cars on the road.

Today, I am going to look at number 3 (black on black 78 US 5 speed). I am 928 crazy. I have never even driven one.

Thanks Stephen. Thanks Rennlist.

 

You've really not been in one, on the street? Or did someone just get an account highjacked.?

 

Nope, yesterday was my first time.

 

You are a lucky man!!! SO is Stephen....I am glad that Sharky went to a proper home!!

Sharky is a VERY strong S4 and here is the dyno pull to prove it...279whp!!!

Stephen was very effusive with praise for you and all of your hard work on Sharky. I guess it was akin to having your virginity taken by a supermodel. He is indeed lucky. What a beautiful girl!

 

928's are an interesting ride.....I went from Sharky, a nearly perfect street 928....to this.....which is FAR from pretty

 

I follow your Lemons threads. I dig the "Estate".

 

I gotta admit...the "estate" is SO much fun to drive on track..... Yes its not that fast & has tiny tires....but I can help but smile after driving it!!

I even washed her yesterday!!!! No more carbon all over the back from the flames....somewhat clean....or as clean as I could get with just a hose and broom... Sure runs good though....I love doing one leg all around the shop!!!!

There is a Chumpcar race at Fontana in July.....we "might" come down for it?

 

You have over 5500 POSTS (not that all of them are in this forum of course, looks like most are in the 944 area), TWO 928's and yesterday was your first RIDE (not even DRIVE) in one?! Dude, YOU ARE NUTS! In a good kind of way of course! LOL!

 

Michael, driving them is even more fun!

Brian when did you sell the Black Widow?

 

Please let me/us know if you are coming to SoCal.

I have to admit, much of the posting is in .

People have offered in the past, including Stephen, but I am weird that way (plenty of ways actually).

Thanks. Think of the utter satisfaction I will have driving my own for the first time after spending countless hours and plenty of ducats on her (this is how I justify my position) .

 

Michael,

I am the 928 crack dealer on the corner..."wanna go for a ride in my 928? The first ride is free..."

"how did you like that? Wanna drive one?"

LOL! I am SOOOO BAD! Just ask Brian...he went out and bought a car shortly after... Sean is working on it now...known as Sexual Chocolate! Keep your eyes peeled for his HUGE smile as he drives his baby for the first time in a few weeks!

 

Ok, I'll bite...
What is "sexual chocolate"?
I've got several ideas, and a couple of mental pictures of it... I just want to be sure.

 

So you're the guy with the "free candy" sign on the side of your 928

 

If you did not see the Eddie Murphy movie "Coming to America" from the late '80's you would not get it, and if you didn't see...GO RENT IT! Funny as hell!
