Your car is one of my favorites on this board. Nicely done. Love the painted side skirts.

I think I saw you one morning driving down Old Niskayuna rd. about a month ago (I was in a black S4). My father has a midnight blue 993tt around the area. Would have loved to check out your car sometime if I wasn't leaving for school again tomorrow morning. Regardless, these pictures don't do it justice at all--good luck with it!!

Looking good!

Phase 5, sunroof?

BTW, if it rains when you're at track, don't stay in the garage! Rain days at track are the best days for learning!

Nice work Bill. Done just right IMHO. Agressive but tasteful. Enjoy The Glen. I miss getting there and have made a lot of friends on that hill.

Agreed

Bill, awesome car - one of my favorites on this board, not only is it stunning to look at, but also set up for the track. The yellow headlights are badass.

Coming from a "sideways" Finn what would you expect?

Bill the car is gorgeous, congratulations.
How do you like your 3:15 first gear, do you feel you need to rev it higher and slip the clutch more to get the car moving? I am struggling with my 2.5:1 and thinking of going 3.15:1.
Thanks
