That is one gorgeous car, Alain. I'm wiping the drool off my keyboard. Your backyard ain't bad either

Glad everything worked out with the tuning experience.

John,

I just had the car dynoed (posted results in previous thread), Guenther had no time to tune it. Now, i am speaking to Kevin and considering having him work on turbo's and then have Guenther do a tune.
Any thoughts?

what aspect of the K24's are you not happy with ?

Car looks great !
Can you slide the GT3 seats far enough forward for someone to get into the rear seat ?

The architect in me is screaming - post pics of your house !!!!

Default PPIR info - May 8/9

Alain,

There are at least two approaches to PPIR registration available to you. First, Doug at ASW can register you for $125/day and you can paddock in the ASW corral. Second, you can call Leslie at 303.659.9291. She is handling Roland's driving school at PPIR that weekend. To go that route is $175/day, track and school included.

FYI, Nomex suits are required and are available for rent at PPIR for $25/day if you don't have one already.

As an aside, have you seen Tom Bailey's 993tt S around Aspen?

Q,

I haven't really tried to climb back there. i don't think it's a good solution if you intend to use the back seats. The GT3 are incredible though. Once you are used to them they ar actually very comfortable and really hold you in place.

Here's a pic of the house
