That's bigger than my first house.

Seriously nice. Just need a ping-pong table that folds out from the wall and it's complete

The lift is the MD6XP by Bend-Pak, you can read about it here on my original post back in '06 https://rennlist.com/forums/993-foru...-lift-wow.html
The rear wing is from Porsche, part of the RS Aero Kit (wing, front splitters and side skirts).



The tiles are called MotoFloor, from Snaplock Industries, purchased from costco.com. I live in California, not a lot of humidity, but all the tiles have channels built into them for airflow and to carry any liquids down the grade of the garage.
Thank you for the info.

If the flooring allows liquids to flow underneath them, then they will get dirty underneath. Do you guys strip up the tiles once in a while to clean the floor?

Yes, you can pop out a section of tiles to clean underneath if you spill any liquids, it's not too bad. The nice thing is that the tiles are not damaged by oil, gas, solvents, etc...very easy to keep clean (so far).

Well Herr Straub, it appears that your job in Weissach is working out quite well
Your garage looks amazing. As a personal friend I will tell you guys that all of Paul's stuff is always like this...ultra clean! He is the true Mr. Clean and he really makes me feel like a slob when I am around him. Kudos to you my friend for all of your hard work.
Looking forward to enjoying a cold beverage with you soon. Also looking forward to hanging out at the Superbike WC at Laguna Seca this year!

Hey Darin, thanks!! glad you like it. I need to get with you and order everything for my 60K, looking forward to doing that this spring. We are really excited about our camping/World Superbike trip. On another note, to entice you and Mark to come visit, I still have your Christmas presents

Wow, a $60 bottle opener...well, it does say Porsche on it, that adds $50, pretty nice though.

No, just a long time fan, these are all my helmets from over the years. I get a new Arai every 2-3 years, but always keep my old ones, they are my little art collection

Amazing! Love it! Thanks for the idea on how to hang the flag from the garage door too.
