Thank you again for the kind words, Mark, Graham

Petu, how are you doing? Haven't talked to you for awhile.. I sincerely hope that you were not affected by the hurricanes down in Florida

Pin,

I'm unclear on the concept:

Did you sell so you will resist the temptation to track? or you are getting a cheaper track car, ala a Miata, etc. and keep on tracking?

Saving for a house and or a baby Pin?

What are you driving right now? Sharing Minnie's VW?

You are always welcomed to my RUF for a fix. That the least I can do to repay the fix you got me in.

We definitely need to keep in touch. Margaret and I thank you for your BAAAAAD influence.

Pin - sorry to see her go. Deep down I know you'll be back soon anyway. No wonder I thought I saw your errrrr Arnaud's car at Bob's.

Take care bud.

Kim,

Never say never...

Pin,

Thanks for asking, we're fine here. We've been really lucky and sort of managed to be "between" the hurricanes. Lost a power for couple of days (during Frances) but that's it.
We live very close to ocean so we prepared for Frances extensively but luckily didn't have anything else. than that power & couple of fallen small palms and lots of leaves etc.

Take care,

AW, I am friends with the original owner and he told me that he sincerely hopes the new owner turns it into a track car - thats what she deserves. And since you know the PO is DJ, you don't want to upset him. LOL!

Congrats on the new car, just a little confused about when you are going to drive it? The GT2 is faster on the street. The rad is faster on the track. The Lotus GT1 is just plain cool looking. And the Cayanne can hold more crap from home deopt.

Well, first let me say that I'll do everything I can to make both previous owners proud. In fact, I suspect the car will some day end up with a big *** wing and a TC Design cage.

The Lotus is gone. It has been replaced with the Radical. The Radical is fun but, as you may know, using it for DEs is kind of a waste of tires and engine time. So basically, the Radical is for racing, the C4S is for track days, especially when I don't want to tow. The GT2 is for the street, if I keep it...

Another motivation to get the C4S was also to start playing with POC and PCA.


voila!

Arnaud

Yes John, I'm waiting for your GT3

Petu, I'm glad to learn that you're okay... I wish you the best, my friend

Pong, yeah it's been a while since we last met... to answer your question: i decided to stop tracking for now (temporarily). Thank you for the offer on your RUF but I don't have a Red Ferrari Racing Suit so I'll pass hehehe

Thank you Eric, Princeton..

Phil, thank you for the encouragement, I'm hoping to be back again...
