Hi,

Very funny

Great motor, beautifully done, delete the RS badge though.

Cheers,
Paul

Simon, an air cooled 968! What a concept, it could be MRQ's next project if he buys my 968 and strips the RS rep. After seeing the car in the flesh I can say it looks even better than the pics.

Touche Boxsey

Don't worry I am not here to troll, I am looking to go air cooled after a few laps of this in Spa, what a sound!!

That's the hottest car (heat) Jacko has ever been in when he was teaching us the track.

We love Spa here too!

I trust you have seen Frank's video of this year's trip and will think about joining us next year?

But ... but ... did they mean to put the steering wheel on the wrong side?

Welcome!

Isn't the steering wheel on the right side as you sit in the car?

Looks like they left it as the 'god' of Porsche intended!

That's how I like mine.

Hey, I noticed in the first set of pictures that you Right Hand Drivers don't have room for a deadman's pedal for the clutching foot due to the leftward bias of the pedal assemblies. I see there's one for the throttle foot which seems useless to me unless you're in cruise control. I love being able to rest my clutch foot with my Left Hand Driver.

Is this as much of an inconvenience as I would presume it to be?

Kinda hints at the superiority of LHD cars over RHD cars, huh?

Later RHD cars have the clutch pedal moved to the right a little, and there is a footrest next to the clutch

No time for resting that foot over here
