My 993 at VIR
I spent some time this winter polishing up my track car; its a 1995 993 that I use exclusively at DE events. It came to me with a good finish, but it needed a bit more attention.
Keep in mind it is a track car; I was not going for concours.
Picture is by a pro photographer at the track (F&S Enterprises); I of course had to skinny down the pic for this post; the original is something like 4MB.
I hear that a shiny car is faster; is that true?

What do you have planned? Will you be using the Tip or the Miata?

The Miata is still a work in progress. My much better half decided that the new hardwood floors were a more of a priority than the Miata suspension. Sheesh. Go figure. I put a set of SO3s on the Miata and I can feel there is potential here. We are having some wrought iron work done as well - maybe the blacksmith could set me up with a set of wrought iron coil overs.

Looks good, Rick! Too bad F&S likes to use fast shutter speeds; the better photographers are using slower speeds and panning with the car to blur the wheels. What's your next event? I think my next DE will be with Potomac at WG.
