i fail to understand people's reluctance to seeing this happen. a challenge was issued (by someone with questionable manners) and it was accepted. and we have consenting adults on both sides.

competition is good. its the american way!

i'm in for the video too especially if the proceeds go to funding the race.

Just caught this thread - funny stuff.

I will say that after taking a number of laps in a 996TT over the past weekend at Pocono, anyone who doubts the ability of the car will be sorely surprised. Its a Porsche through and through - after the first lap, my doubts were forever put to rest, regardless of how the oil is cooled.

Good luck to both parties if this pans out.

Hi guys,

Is the blue 993, showed above, the last air cooled Porsche ever sold?
The one Seinfeld bought in the late 90's?

Thanks,

Arjan B.

Hell, this is a fraction of the $ and time we put into OTC - all for a cheap trophy and bragging rights. And SCCA racing - there is some serious $ and time.

I don't think I am interested in your view of maturing. I prefer to do the things that sound like fun rather than be mature. Since pretty much all competition is essentially '****-fighting' then yes, it is worth it for a ****-fight.

Mark, I miss your signature:

Have you ever met Mark? Spoken to him? Raced him? Challenged him to a race?

George must have tired of trolling the 996 TT board and popped over to insult both Mike and Mark.
Can Carlos be far behind?

Having read the Mid-Life Crisis Racing web-site and this thread, I think my money is on Mark having his teeth and being pretty well hung.

Woof Woof.

is george 911-v8 the same as the george of swamp monster fame? if yes, the post would be in character for him...

not having seen the guy on this board for the last 6+ months i thought we were rid of him.
