You're 993 will love it and so will we !!!!!!!

Congrats and welcome to the club.

Ditto that! Just run for days, see the sights, enjoy the haze. Photo that road weary 993 when you get home and then spend a day making it as beautiful as a prom date before taking her out around that great town of yours.

Yeah, have a suggestion... Buy some of those Super Space Diapers from NASA and you wont even have to take bathroom breaks...... Good luck with the car.

Great looking car Fred. Welcome to the chaos. Sorry to hear of your bad luck with the law already. Speed is addictive I know. Hope you can space the tickets out. Fly safe.

Fred,

Great pics... especially of the BIG grin on your face! Where (in TX) did you get the ticket? Have a safe and fun rest of the trip.

Just picked up my car, 1000 miles away in LA. Fun, fun fun. This is my 7th Porsche and rides like a limo compared to ear;ly 911s, 356 and 914s. It was time! : - )

Safe travels, it was great to meet you. Please take care of my (oops, I mean your) baby. My wife asked me what I was going to do next... I must resist Turbo envy... At least for a couple of days!

good stuff - have a safe trip and enjoy it. I wish I had had more time to make the two such trips I've taken (both FL-MN).

Fredo...

Ok I'm gonna take a gander... That's the Kroger at the corner of Legacy and Indpendence?
Hope you have a good trip. Oh ya, did anyone tell you to get a radar detector ?!?!?!?!?
Well I guess you got your first ticket out of the way......
