if you’re East of the Mississippi I’d argue it is worth the drive for the next one. I think it’s June 4-6. It was the most fun I’ve ever had in a car. There were over 200 Porsches at the one in October.

Hopefully, by then, the World will be open again - car looks great!
Used Griot's ceramic 3 and 1 wax, rubber dressing, etc... in detailing the entire car using Griot's products inside and out.......best ceramic wax I have used out of many.......so durable and provides one hell of a shine....their interior cleaning and leather care products are also outstanding.....spent 3 hours today....
Got my new CF seats...put together my GMG slider brackets and mounted the seats to them...only got one in the car before I had to leave for the airport...and sorry, forget to get a pic of it in the car...the one below in the car is the seat sitting on top of the factory 18 way.
I’m 6’3” and 250 pounds and the XL fits great, the seats are so comfortable that no joke, I literally nodded off in them twice while trying them out, once in the living room and once in the car....went for a short drive to try it out in motion and love em.
the seats are light as a feather; about 7.5 pounds, but the GMG brackets are way too heavy for my liking, will try to figure out a way to hard mount at least the drivers seat in the right position to be comfortable and shed that bracket weight.
even so the stock 18 ways were 66.2 pounds and these with the GMG slider brackets and all the hardware to attach a harness for race days came in at 18.3 pounds
so that’s a 95.8 lbs weight reduction
i have the antigravity battery that saved 50 lbs
saved an average of I think it was 9.1 pounds per wheel with my a magnesium wheels for 36.4 pounds total savings
And my Kline Inconel exhaust and Inconel headers saved about 35 pounds
Added probably less than 15 pounds with bigger intercoolers and turbos but let’s call it 15 lbs
so total weight reduction I guess is about 202.2 pounds...which should get my heavy Cabriolet down pretty close to stock Coupe weight. Of course the coupes can take a similar amount of weight out too, but I think this is about as light as mine will go, can’t think of anything else to lighten that won’t take away from it also being a comfy GT cruiser when asked to be
