Default Do I have a great wife or what? Today is my birthday so she surprises me with...

with these two gems - the GT3-RS carbon fiber wing and the RS nose (in the box). I'm blown away - not only that she got these for me but that she actually tracked down where to get them and made it happen. It's not like you can buy these at the mall!

Seems as if she got some help from my track buddies (thanks John, Richard and Jack) and Arling at Lucent. I'm still speechless - not I can't wait to get them installed!

Your wife must know you well, she is a keeper.

As, yes she does and no she is not single. Sorry.....

My wife though is pretty unique - she is an artist and a scientist (sort of) - a different combo. She also likes to drive a GT3 very, very fast!

Good job Maryne, and Happy Birthday Kevin!!!

One can only hope that the gains you'll garner from the new spoilers, will be offset by your aging skills......

You've only got a week or so to get them installed so get going....

Personally, I think your wife bought the parts for herself and just used your birthday as an excuse!

A most excellent story, indeed.
