The snake pit:



Running away from the snakes!




I got held up by this guy... actually able to run him down pretty quickly but no passing on this track.

Another shot that makes me think it's time to stiffen things up.

I've instructed those guys before... a fun group to be the only Porsche in! Looks like you had fun too.

Question sweet!

yikes, looks like your scraping there! How did you compare to the rustangs on the track? Were any of them able to keep up?

The only mustang that was looked like it would keep up was a 490 hp '04 cobra but even he was falling back before his intercooler blew and started steaming out water. The Z06 was probably the only car that took more than a lap to chase down. The two of us would leave the pack of Cobras and he was holding me up a bit; I never got a chance to go infront of him to see if I could drive away.

That picture of my car squatting and leaning is coming out of a tight corner full throttle in second gear. It never scraped, but looks a little inelegant.

The ford guys are a really cool bunch and welcomed me and the 944. Many were curious about it and definetly were impressed with the way it performed. There are more pictures that will trickle in through the week and I'll be sure to post them up if people are interested.
