Nice!! Thanks for posting!
He did have a red jack stand underneath the car when he was adjusting the RSB at the track 
He works under the car w/o jack stands or properly securing it. Pretty risky if you ask me.

finally getting caught up here...been working for the last 19 days straight...often times in 12 hour shifts. Done after just 8 today, ran errands, and came home and strated drinking. Loved the video, remember seeing the floor lift before.
great philosophy...seems like a very decent gent. If I was on his coast, I'd search him out to chat and drink with.
Car looks specfrickintacular also. Love the road/track rash patina on the rear quarter too.

Great story!
I obviously am attracted to the Porsche 911 because of it's awesome design. But the other great philosophy about owning a Porsche is that it was meant to be driven! It's always cool to see some high end garages that some of us "car nuts" own, which house many exotic cars. But I can't understand wanting to own something that you never really use.
I just loved it when I brought my car to a shop because of questionable codes it was throwing. The mechanic just told me "just drive it harder and for longer trips to make it run better. Porsches love to be driven and hard!"
If you can get away with using your Porsche as both a daily driver and a weekend race car, then I say go for it! Who cares about the miles your putting on it or the potential for losing value by putting too many miles on your car. My investment is in the joy I get out of driving the car. And when I'm not doing that, I'm browsing Rennlist!
Once again, great video. Thanks for sharing.

Great video, really like his car and his philosophy.
Wondering how the Porsche script on the sides of his car would look on mine... Hmmm. Any 993's running that exact script?
