Mine only goes that far up if the motor is not running and will stay that way until it is re-started...

AWESOME looking car, mano. Definitely the color scheme I would have opted for as well... And just might, should these new gen cars prove to have the secret sauce the older ones do.

Drive the wheels off it!

Another question - why the raised spoiler? I assume you did that manually...to clean? Spoiler - spoils the lines IMO. Your car but mine will be down as much as the car allows.

Couldn’t agree more. Stiff///m, your car is gorgeous, let’s see it with the spoiler at rest where it belongs!

In words of David Byrne and The Talking Heads ..... "Still waiting"

After delays at Emden now I get held up in Houston.

Anyone else that came into Houston port get held up? SA says he can't get any answers.

@Macboy show us your tyres after the track day 😎

If so are you like me (and many others!) having issues connecting your phone to the cam?
It was installed by Porsche. The guy who was tasked with walking me through the functions gave up and called an ex Audi engineer to fix it. He told me it was old Audi software that Audi stopped using a few years back!
I can read the recordings by inserting the card into a USB but that won’t always be possible.
A total pain in the arxx🤬
It took a bit, but I got my Pixel phone (Android) connected to the Porsche Dashcam in my wife's Macan. Make sure you are using the car's hotspot and have your phone's VPN (Private Relay on iOS) turned off for the initial setup.

@Edward911 Thanks for the tips. During initial setup they told me that and it worked for the first few drives, then stopped and I haven’t connected it since..
I’m due a master class soon and will push it then.
Annoying!!

@Macboy
As the semi pro racing driver that you are I’m hoping you did our group proud and lapped Zandvoort at something like 1’11.
Anything less and we should politely ask you to leave the group!
I know Verstappen did similar times but he was in an inferior car to you!

@NewTo911’s , Sean from CEN recommended the following kit, he installed to other 911, but he needs to make 3D-print speaker collars for OEM fitment to 992https://www.morelhifi.com/product/maximo-ultra-mkii/

if it is not too far for you, would you mind to see if it is a feasible proposition? Once the collars are done, it would open-up the market for us… maybe your collar should be amortised over the number of orders… I am in :-)
