Man, that looks incredible. I just moved to UK a few mos ago and everyone has told me I need to go on some is the drives up north. Hit me up if you ever have room for another RL'er to tag-along.

It's definitely worth a trip, especially if you avoid peak tourist season in the summer, and also don't just stay on the 'North Coast 500'.
We had 3 days of deserted roads, and even the rain meant lower limits and much fun...albeit we did almost lose 2/991 Rs in a field after one particularly slippery corner!
think we'll be going somewhere else this year, maybe Italy, which is great but Much less convenient for me, living in Edinburgh!
a few more pics to whet your appetite:

Love the picture of the R with the GT3. Can't look at that picture and not love the lines of the R. I really do hate that wing. Sooo glad Porsche made a GT3 Touring manual. Really wanted to get an R but was not lucky enough to get an allocation.

Footsoldier, thanks for the lovely pics. Reminds me of pics a friend of mine sent me (JC Stevens) when he was working for Ensco in Aberdeen and made friends with a group of car guys. Unfortunately, he crashed his GT3 and passed away over there. His trips to the Scottish Highlands/Le Mans with a group of guys like your own looked amazing. You guys definitely have the roads to make the most of cars like these.

Great pictures Footsoldier! I think this is the first shot I have seen of an R with bug splatter on the front bumper.
