Looks fantastic! Though I may be slightly biased...

Very clean. I especially like the Euro front bumper. I'm going to have to do that one of these days.

really nice. i have a euro nose on mine but it does't look as good as yours in red. my car is black so the bumperette delete isn't as noticable. great car ... good luck to you.

how is that clutch setup? my friend has the same setup and the car is very hard to drive on the street. Not that it matters to either of us since we pretty much only track the cars. It's an unsprung disk right ? I like the feel of it in battle but parkiing and driving from stop to stop is a bit much. Welcome to the best forum on the site : )

Andy T...

1997 993tt Blk on Blk (whatever is left of the interior is blk ) setup to run within the guidelines for PCA Clubracing "C" Class.... next year that is !!

Thanks everyone for the comments! Wow just posted this too! Got inspiration from many of you.

I'm in the SF Bay area (Danville). Know there are several of us here! Is anyone going to the porsche drive tomorrow? Went the first year with my 996tt and it was a blast. Looks like close to 150 porsches are scheduled to be there, although only a handful of 993's

Andy, the clutch set up is pretty cool, but takes some getting used to. I think I must have stalled 5 times on my first drive! Flywheel is very light and sheds revs very quick. Release is literally at the top of the pedal travel for me and it engages quick. I'm starting to get the hang of it, but hills still make me nervous!

Anyone else here in the Bay area? Let me know if any of you are headed to the drive tomorrow.

Kevin that is how my friend Dave's car is. Same deal.. a very high pedal and a very touchy one at that !! Glad to hear you are gettng used to it. If it were me I'd be cursing and throwing things all over the place. Then again you're in CA and I'm in NJ (NYC during the day) : )

Great car Kevin don't be afraid to track it. Our cars were made to go fast and stop short. Don't test this on the roads, the track is way safer. Cheers... Andy
