What the hell is up with the 991.2 community and this tuning/modding secrecy? Like seriously.. People aren't posting info/results to share with fellow enthusiasts because they're worried someones gonna fraud them?
I honestly think nobody really knows what's going on, other than Cobb and Hydra.

Why? Thread is funny as hell. Nice little break from posts about rattles, loose bolts, ceramic coatings, flat tires, etc.

I'm liking this thread. Nice change of pace. Makes this forum section less **** and uptight seeming.

+2 My day is filled with enough serious stuff... I'm enjoying the twists and turns of this particular adventure. It's easy to ignore if it isn't someone's fancy.

Plus, where else will I learn about how to hoon my Lava Orange car and do conspicuously illegal/stupid stuff while also posting photos of my license plate? I cannot wait to see where this story goes next.

You don't lift BRO!?!?! I typically exercise 7 days a week, but mix it up with gym, cycling, volleyball, hiking, etc.

Haha! I was born in Florida and my wife gives me crap every day. Went to Texas for undergrad and went back to Florida for grad school. A lot more dudes at the gym shaved their legs in Florida than Texas. Just an observation.

I would say "please don't be Pennsylvania, please don't be Pennsylvania" if the vehicle was a lifted pick-up, smoke stacks and a "Prius extermination team" sticker.

HAHA, I am originally from PA moved down here.

My advice to solar is sign up for a Chintrackdays.com event or Performance Driving Group, bring the car out to Sebring or HMS and have a real track experience. Learn how to properly drive the car in a controlled environment.

Lots of dudes flexing and checking themselves out in the mirror. It's like a car wreck that you can't look away. There have actually been studies on why our brains are wired to stare at tragedy.

@Psorcery my car is on schedule for May 3rd...look forward to cruising with you!
Oooh yeah! You taking delivery @Scottsdale?

Luckily for me, I fly late at night...so I snag the upgrade and get the free booze.
I love the upgrades and free booze

This is a Porsche car forum isn't it.

There's more people out there but they don't post for some reason.. Many many holding back.

TX and Cosmo are not posting because Sticky is going to post their posts on his website.

OP where you at? I know there's some Friday/Satruday night races this weekend. I want more content.

Can you also post a picture of your dad? I want to put a face to the story.

Why so serious?

The 991.2 has a dog eat dog community. Wow...Going turbo brought in the nasty people who are "car fanatics". So many egos and insecurities.

I don't have any problems or issues with you.. But chill out man. You come off as child with temper tantrum.
