Default Phil G Does Exist!

I can verify that Phil G. Does exist, as does his beautiful C4S.

I had the good fortune to run into Phil this afternoon at the Riesentöter PCA 50th Birthday Party. Photographs of the cars at the event and Phil's C4S will follow... once I get them uploaded to Flickr.

Okay, photos of Phil's C4S.

I can verify that there's not a single ding or scretch on htis car... I did a thorough PPI for anyone that needs a copy.

Phil did tell me that one the way to the meet he did exceed 40mph. On the way back he was a bad boy and went as high as 60mph. He asked me if that voided his warranty

phew... getting warm in here... might have to put my nomex suit on soon.

Yeah, I exceeded 60mph over the crest of the Providence Road hill. Right over the crest the road bends to the right, but the car (and I) didn't know that so I almost killed myself as the car tried to go airborne. Good thing the car is much better at what it does than I am at driving it. But what an incredible rush - FUN!!

Wayne - thanks for the Phil File. BTW - did you actually SEE Phil drive his car?

... oh no! Another sighting of the Loch Ness Monster without conclusive proof of existence. I let the side down.

Next time!

Phil - your car looks AWESOME! Glad you got her out of the closed up garage to give her some fresh air!

Thanks Tim. There were some truly beautiful Porsches at the show - just glad I was able to be there. The fresh air did both of us good.
