Anyway, we all went out one-on-one with an instructor to get a handle on the track and the rules of the club and to get some driving pointers from people who had some racing experience. Several of the newbs in the big, powerful cars had problems dealing with the 'restrictions' that the instructors put on them :-) I noticed that Kiki didn't seem to have any problems. Period. As a matter of fact, she only went around the track with an instructor once and then she was changed into the green run group ... where all the best drivers were running, where she pretty much dominated the track all day against new Turbo's, RS Americas and heavily modified track monsters of all stripes. So, at lunch, I found her alone, eating a sandwich by her car and we spent lunch talking. Turns out her father, was a big time European race driver and her brother was also a pro racer in the Porsche Cup circuit .. Her name was Kiki Wolfkill ... I recently read an article about her being invited to drive several of the cars that run in the ALMS series and I think her brother Kim is the Editor of Road and Track now ..? You never know ...
Here's an article about her .. http://m.kitsapsun.com/news/2002/jul...ff-to-work-on/ Oh, and did I mention she was gorgeous?

The 944 was a great car to cut your teeth on, it can be driven very hard without getting into too much trouble. However, when the back end comes out, you have to be a little more patient or it snaps back the other way pretty quick. The 993 came way more natural to me (maybe because I read so much about the handling dynamics before owning one) - I like the instant corrections and I feel the handling dynamics are defiantly more natural to me.
I had a 951 too, never again will I dump money into one of those - fun car though.
Good luck with it, get yourselves a parts car too
