Na, who thinks that? What do you think we are, Honda guys on the ricer forums? You're kool with me Mr. Carnage!

I say just weld them up and climb through the windows.....just like another icon car.

Guns951

Haha, yeah they'll be left black, will compliment the wheels majorly!

As far as the doors go, it was a decision to clean the look up as the GTR didn't have handles either, plus the aero benifit of losing them is there as well (no matter how small). The name of the game is simplicity! This will be the only "might be considered as" rice part on the car...

SoloRacer

Ohh.....and if you can coax your co-driver into a pair of daisy dukes that's even better.........

Yikes ---->

Solo: I'm going to have fixed slider windows in there...I'd have to crawl through the hatch! And the co pilot is going to be wearing some very, very flattering race suits/provocative clothing. Any word on weather or not you'll be joining me?

Something like this:

RolexNJ

Yeah Solo, with that entire fleet of cars, why don't you go?



And Gabe, the word you used is "weather" - should have been whether? Did you have your coffee yet pal?

I've been considering taking the 968 and it was looking like Rage2 would be my co-pilot. He even might have been able to come up with a sponsor. I have a couple of problems though...mainly to do with timing of the event. This x-mas I gave my 65 year old mother a trip to New York - something she has always wanted to do (see the Yankees, Broadway, etc) so we are going for 10 days in April. That still left me with 20 days of paid holidays. I figured the Great American run would take about 14 days when you factor in how long it would take to get to the starting point and back home after the run to L.A. So I still had lots of time to spare - possibly enough for me to take part in the Porsche Parade in San Diego as well. However, I just got a message from my High School reunion committee and they are booking our 20th reunion for late July - exactly when the run is to happen. I really want to attend this as I haven't seen many good people for a long time - not since the last reunion 10 years ago. Chances are this is going to be the last reunion we have for another 10 years or so and I don't think I should miss it.

Sorry to hear that man, one of these days I'd like to see the 968!

Rolex: Yeah yeah, spelling was never my strong point

Must be a Houston thang, right? I lived there ya know, I think I told you that? I lived right near the Galleria area.

Guns951

OMG....well I'm originally from California, where immpecable gramatical syntax rules the day.

The galleria area is nice, but traffic is a biotch! I'm up in the Woodlands, its hella nice now with the water way area by the mall. You'd love it, very Italian.

RolexNJ

Dude, you told me this like a 1000s times already. That said, I think I have a friend who wants to say a word to you. Maybe you can learn something from him.

Guns951

How did you get that pic of me before I grew my hair back?

Guns951

Okay guys the rear boxed flares showed up and here they are! The car should be back from the media blasting shop in the next few days and the real crazy work will start!

Boy these are gonna be wide!

Guns951

Yup ITBs are a go! Just got done talking to Chris White and he's going to set me up with an Individual Throttle Bodies for a large increase in throttle response from stock and it should yield some top end HP.

Did I mention they'll look cool as hell?
