Is it going to be a girl driving?

I'd also suggest matching seat cover for the full effect.



Just kidding, it looks pretty good, better than the similiar scheme on the yellow Corvette C5Rs.

I like it. Probably would have made the white stripes a little thinner to show more black if it was mine but that's just me.

That was the original intent but the white hides the "uglies" in the black paint so well!! Plus the thing looks so cool in the dark.

I like it. IMO just about anything goes on the track, maybe moreso with Porsches. Some famous P-Cars and their unique schemes:

917/20 "Pink Pig"


917K psychedelic "Hippie Car"

Same applies to DE's. IIRC, there was once a line of 4-5 Guards Red 944's in a row at The Glen - I was number 2 or 3!

That's why I use racer's tape and cover my lic. plate with my car number:

Finally got it off the rack, unfortunately a day late for our first track day of the season up here.

Updated shots....still can't get a night shot to work on the digital camera.

I wonder what it would look like white white wheels. Maybe even sliver ( i guess im just not a fan of black). Looks good though i like the stripes

TurboX,
The wheels on there are just for transport. I usually run BBS RE's in Silver at the track. Just picked up the second set so it's black only in the rain

Lart,
Thanks, hopefully I don't get laughed off the track.

If I could just figure out how to get a picture of it glowing in the dark....it is so cool.

Turn the flash off, put the camera on a tripod, turn the exposure up to around a second or two. (Just general directions since I have no idea what camera you have). It looks great though! (And I like the black wheels).
