From one of the responses in the board that had the original pic (and I'm not making this up):

"Thing with porsche 911's of that generation is that they're almost impossible to control. Especially when your getting 700+ HP. It is litterally deadly. This wing beleive it or not improves this car. "

Max:

I find that last quoted statement shocking, and it reminds me of this story:

A southern gentleman hired a local boy to help out around the house. Early one morning he instructed the young man to paint his porch using the white paint and materials near the garage. He returned home later that evening to find the boy sitting on the unpainted porch awaiting payment for his daily effort. Confused, he asked the boy why he hadn't finished painting the porch. The boy replied, "oh, I finished it, but mister, that ain't no Porch, that's a Ferrari."

Hey Fred:

It has. The cause has been work and a new found appreciation for my road bike early on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Although I've had the chance to bump into Max occasionally. But I do look for you guys when I ride Latigo. How's the cab, besides looking good? It looks like you could write a treatise on how to fix almost everything. You were smart to get a warranty.
