Yes, wayyyyyy to fast - I've elected to take the 996 off the road October 15 so we can focus on the 'Great Turbo Upgrade'...

Looks great on the car.
Yes - I use various OZs on three separate platforms, so for the money, good bang for the buck.

In colonial times, I was very familiar with being locked in a dark room with nothing but a slice of bread and glass of water to make do with.

This, of course, after I had to walk 20 miles, back and forth, to school in torrential rain or driving blizzards...

Kids, these days, don't know how good they have it.

You were given bread & glass of water? Wow, your parents were soft.

It was the constant darkness that made me distant...

Who said I had parents?

Well, at least I thought it was a room - could've been a crate, you know, like I said, it was dark... Always.

Track night... As in 1/4 mile. Not really my thing, but i still like to go once or twice a year. Hot night in Colorado, 8,200' density altitude. And I for the life of me couldn't get the tires to hook tonight. 11.1

Looks pretty though!

I repeat myself, but for some reason, your car always photographs so nicely.

Unreal that it ran 11.1 in +8000 DA. I don’t think I could breathe……..

Crazy stuff. I would need an O2 tank. That is crazy thin air. Athlete’s have to train for those conditions due to the lower O2 levels. Can be dangerous if suddenly exposed.

Great race weather is =+30 baro uncorrected. I live at 2000ft and stay mad at my sea level buddies that constantly get 30 baro. We drop to 27.7 with a 4500ft DA in the summer and it kills performance.

You are in that 23 to 24 unimaginable baro condition.
