Luft8 is not a C&C to me, it's something completely different but I still won't wake up early to go to one as I'm not into antiques.

Don’t mean to be negative but C&C is so facepalm I would rather go out and purposely curb my wheel then show up to one of those lol

on the tracking front I always track up at Laguna nov/dec when I visit my family back up north near Monterey and this year it’s been closed for resurfacing and fixing the bridges there which is nice as it was needed but….

when you guys actually think they’ll open up the laguna again for hpde? Tried calling and no one answered there. Those GT4RS deliveries need that track open!

Problem is that GT4RSs won't pass sound without lifting on the normal DB limit days, 100db+ days no problem to go flat out everywhere on track. SD will be at Buttonwillow on Saturday, Jan 7th...hopefully the track dries out with all the rain that we'll be getting.

Now the GT sections are polluted with posts on ADM's, deviated stitching, PTS and so forth.

u are right
furthermore, "collectable" is an useless word.. I collect a lot of things. some incaresed value faster than crypto in its prime. some are worse than toilet paper. but I will continue collecting them bc I like them. cars... come collect to stare, some to profit some to drive....
all good

it's good but you cans only eat so much wagyu.

Like you said, they went to $500k-$600k and at that price point it was a pass but sub $400k I'm a buyer but if you come across a no story CGT driver under $1m in the next few years just text me.
dude, I told you just buy that car did I not...
but anyways, your RE is doing better than the car so you are fine.
lmk when you grille is ready. I will drive down.

All C&C is not created equal. In good weather, mine has hundreds of cars spanning the spectrum of makes, sizes, and ages from 1910s to brand new. There are often also vintage tanks and fire engines and some real race cars. Usually a bunch of motorcycles too. There are always many Porsches there, and more variety than what you see at a DE. Some of the people there track their cars, there are even some pro racers. Best of all for me, it’s 5 minutes from my house!

I do not see this changing anytime soon, so we might as well enjoy what we have in the garage, or find suitable alternatives.

Drive it like you stole it got it at msrp, have fun, don't check RL so often
Can you share how many 992 GT3RS allocation you've received thus far as a percentage of total 991.2 GT3RS allocations you received? I assume sharing absolute numbers is off limits (happy to hear if you are open to share), but even as a percentage of 991.2 would be informative.

You'll be thrilled with it...by far my favorite drive from the GT department of late.

way less. that's all you get from me. BUT- how long will production last? truly nobody knows - unlike Sport Classic which we know ends in March 23
