Patrick,

Thanks again bro! Too bad the weather isn't cooperating for me and the wife's trip up to Baltimore today for my buddy's 50th birthday bash, but oh well...

Yea, this seems like a VERY slippery slope. I've done an autocross with my Audi but other than that, I've not done any track events. There is a PCA DE event at VIR here in VA in May and I'd like to check that out.

Dreamer, do it! These cars are made for high performance driving. The track is the extra added joy of Porsche ownership.

I've never had the pleasure of driving VIR, but it seems to be on everyone's list of favorite tracks.

PCA will supply you with instructors of course. But there is also a TERRIFIC Professional driving/racing coach based there named Peter Krause. (lolaman on rennlist). Look him up. Great guy who will be happy to answer any questions for you.

+1 on your comment. Miss my old Audi and enjoyed Audiworld but Rennlist has been that much better.

Audi is a gateway drug for P cars you know.

Gratz on the car. She is gorgeous.

New car high, never gets old (and quite addictive)

Love the color combo

Chris, I'm glad your car got there safely and that you're pleased with it! I'm always nervous when I give my impressions of cars. You've got a very nice example there and I hope it gives you many years of smiles!

Nice colors. The very 1st 993 I drove in my search was a Carrera 4 cab in the same color. Had the grey interior though. Tan is much nicer IMO.

Congrats!

Ive been trying to get to VIR for a long time to check out an ALMS race or do an event with the Audi Club but I havent been able to make it work. So this may be the perfect excuse to finally make it happen!
