There is that Euro 89 that SSI Auto posted today, sunroof delete, no airbags, $13.5 and sell off non track items unless going in on PCA.

Currently thinking about 996/Corvette (C5)/Evo/944T, in that order. The C5 is the biggest bang for the buck, except I don't really like how they feel (maybe curable with a few suspension bits, probably not), or their image. I probably ought to buy one to get it out of my system though... Oh, and there's one last set up I really want to try on the current M3, but with all the modifications, I'm already going to take a hit when I sell it, hesitant to put even more money in that car.

Anyway, got any leads on decent cars (that are track worthy) for giggles?
Ahmet
Yes but that pic is of you being lapped isn't it?? lol

Oh you guys...

I was not lapped by any of the cars in that picture, in fact I believe I had passed all of them, but that doesn't matter as it was an intermediate group for a DE, not a race. All street cars, various level drivers, etc. I posted the picture, because it's funny that even though I'm in a BMW, I seem to be surrounded by Porsches still...

Anyway, that GT3 vs. 944 turbo video is insanely fun to watch, great cars/driving.

I will keep playing w/the idea, but unless a good deal on a track ready car pops up, more than likely I'll do something else. I imagine I'll be in a Porsche sooner or later, even if it's not a 944...

That is me, that picture is SO old, wow...

I occasionally come by and post to help somebody out, I'm still the moderator over at Pelican. Sadly they're lacking in the water pumper sections, 944T and 996 alike

Hmm, maybe I'll go to another PCA DE, and they'll give me a student driving a nice 944 T?
