Viperbob, was this the Trackmasters T-hill event on 5-13? I was there too, although not in my 993 but my '75 Turbo. I would have liked to meet you. I saw the black Devek 928 there as well. I need to bring my '95 down to your shop for suspension work soon.

Yes this was from the 13th at T'Hill. Sorry I missed you. What group were you running? Bring the '95 in anytime....

My wife driving her car in her first PCA DE. I know it's not a pic of our 993, but she did fantastic. The MINI is pretty modified, and she was right on pace with the Porsches.

I usually just get the seven pic deal; alot of the pics are repetitive. I was joking really about the ordering since its like 2:1 pics of you versus me.

Yes, it's the fender liner. Glen gave me half of the liner at the track and the other half was left at Buzzards Neck. I removed the wheels today and saw that the front passenger liner is gone. That might be why the car wouldn't set properly before Tombstone.

Ops, sorry about that....... I might actually have one at home, I'm not sure if it's left or right though.

BTW, it feels like the rear isn't setting properly, not the front. By looking at the pics, I wonder if the tires are rubbing under really high loads.

Fong,

Your GT3 is NICE but your Carrera RS is too SWEET! I would love to have your stable any day

Probably happened when I spun in the first session, no big deal. I have another from the AR car.

I have the car on jack stands and have been looking around. I don't see any obvious signs of rubbing on the car or the tires. I didn't notice anything in the afternoon sessions, but I wasn't pushing as hard as you. Also, why would it only happen before Tombstone?

I'm going to run the Pirelli slicks also during the race weekend, we'll see what happens, but I did order another set of Yokes yesterday for Q, sprints, and enduro.

Those were the days, before the insane insurance excess put an end to track fun!

Some of us are still following our hearts and not listening to our sensibility :-)
