Default Going Away Present for Tim

Ok, as demanded here are some pics from the Newbie. It's a '99 with 47k. I went the Boxster S route first, it took me about two years but I finally got one!

I replaced all the amber but sadly still have the stock 17's.The final pic was taken went I went to meet Pat056. I had the pleasure of watching him run some NASA boys off the CMP track this weekend!!

Had a great time at the track w/you this weekend. Don't know about Atlanta yet, but we're going to get back to the track real soon! Do they have any space at the PCA DE in March?

I haven't checked on the DE, I try to get in touch with Nadine tonight. Yeah we've got to get back, your headset is adjusted to fit me now! LOL.

I saw Jodi's video of the race Sunday on the NASA forum, that was cool to watch!!

Pat and I are located in the same town, about 5 minutes apart as it turned out.

I think they have internet access in Texas and suspect that with or without P-car, Tim will continue to contribute to the list. Good luck to him nontheless.

Beautiful car! By the way, I think the stock 17s are just about the most attractive wheels ever designed by Porsche. And they're easy to clean!

Yeah, they have internet connection in Texas. However, the service provider is PO, which is short for Pony Express. It takes 6 days for an email to get to either the east or west coast.

OK, I can say that because I lived in Texas for 30 years.

But you didn't post to Rennlist ONCE when you were there, did you? That PROVES that they don't have ISPs in Texas.

I left Texas 9 years ago and a Porsche was not in my future at that time, kind of like now!

BTW - when was Rennlist started? I really don't know.

Rennlist wasn't created - it evolved.
