Very intriguing!!!! And I do have a couple of stickers left that I saved for an emergency or a huge opportunity. This would be the latter. Thanks.

I'll get them to you. ("Not a promise" fully understood)

Ingo
What kind of Porsche is that you are piloting?

Rick
Great shot, and great looking waterpumper. The pond is developing quite an affinity for water...

Jay
Are you leading, or about to be lapped? (This is a trick question posed by our ethics committee)

Greg
If I'm not mistaken, you've positioned your car right at track out of the Daytona Horseshoe. New Teammates, there's a lot you can learn from that picture.

Robert
My wife cut that passage out of our family bible, but I will figure out the chapter and verse where the hole is for you.

Finn
Can you send a link to your hot lap of Sebring as well?

And just to show my good buddy Eric I'm just teasing, I'll let him write the caption to this photo:

Mike,

I sent e-mail to Princeton and it has links to two videos from Sebring (one is hot in a way that it was kinda fast and then hot in a way it should be=sliding, going off etc...).

Problem is I get delivery failure messages...
Princeton, what's wrong with your hotmail account, is it full?

Finn- It would probably be better to upload the images here so I can retrieve them since my Hotmail can't handle too many large files. Links are fine.

Last one, here prodly wearing team apparel are me & Suwipin, Marcelo at the time was not enough man to be a member but after arrival of his new GT3 and stories about racing incident at various tracks, he's been accepted.

Two others are non members (thosa bastards!) and Robin was behind the camera.

Better late then never.. I slowly got around to snapping a few pics today... Next week, it may look a tad different, too - but this is what it is now, including a few "changes" from:

Gert's FPB - new headlights - steering brace - new oil cooler - Clear signals - PSS9s - Turbo 18" - S03s - brakes - -Robin's RSRs - rotors - splitter replaced - clutch/slave - brakes - oil/tranny leaks going away - etc., etc., etc.. My thanks to all on Rennlist for your help, patience - and moral support:

Hey Phil..!

My thanks!!! Yep - it's still fully - 100% - just as it left the factory. The PSS9s, for example, came in a "Porsche box" I believe (thanks Viper Bob! so those MUST BE stock. The Turbo wheels certainly are Porsche stock wheels, too. As for the RSRs, I'm certain Robin uses factory mufflers??? Well, you get the idea....



Oh yea - as a reminder - here is my $16K 993 C4 as she arrived home a few months ago... (I loved it then - but more "now" with the factory stock upgrades.... )

the homecoming

John, glad you like the PSS9s. Now just a small request, is there a secret url that had RSS/RDF/XML feeds that I can read rennlist with or a mobile friendly url? Downloading 100k over the phone is a tad painful
