Love Racing Yellow. Here is my RS at Zion National Park on an overcast and a sunny day.

Love RY and I'm not even a yellow fan. Just about the only other car I would consider a yellow on would be a Ferrari F355.

Wouldn't it be a lot more economical to just switch to a set of low dust pads?

RY would not be my choice for a street car, but it certainly would look real good on the track! I speak from personal experience.

I'm thinking Racing Yellow and Agave interior similar to the old 356 and early 911/912 Champagne Yellow/Green combos.

I am going with white with red interior but yellow with red also looks good to me. What is wrong with yellow with red interior?

I ended up with a black interior with chalk stitching, to add some contrast. And yellow belts for the color.

not entirely sure that’s a good combo, I guess I’ll see when the car comes. Deviated yellow stitching was too much of a stretch.

like many a decision I made in life, it seemed like a good idea at the time!
