Can we mention the engine yet Ben?
Welding pics would be lovely - the more the better! I'm keen to see how the coolant stuff is different from stock.

Hey, let me be the first one to welcome you aboard the funbus that is Rennlist Dab!

Be warned that sharing your Porsche passion with so many true enthusiasts is totally addictive - after 2500 posts I wish I could still remember my first one!

It started like:

"Lets put the record straight for once....

For anyone reading out there I am Colin from 9m Racing.."

Thanks for the welcome. I have been a Porsche aficionado since many years and have owned a 964RS and 968CS, both of which I tracked. Hoping to get back in the fold with a 6GT3 Mk1 for some fun driving.
Have also read plenty about 9M as I am a subscriber of the excellent 911 & Porsche World magazine since many years now.

A few more pics below from a trip up to 9M to visit Colin. It looks even better in person, if that's possible.

(Great day out, Colin, thank you. I really enjoyed learning more about the thing!)

Absolutely. I'll be driving it until I run out of money for fuel!

That's the man. Just get out and enjoy the jewel. Come around my way and enjoy some nice mountain roads.

Colin, is this lack of protection an issue with 996 MK2 GT3 also? Tks, Piers.
