Default A perfect Porsche day!

Finally time and weather permitted me to stretch the legs of my 6GT3 after its winter slumber. Darn, do I LOVE this car! This winter I was "cheating on it", eyeing Elises, Exiges, Stingrays, or even 7GT3s. All it took was one drive in the twisties to burst all intentions of ever replacing it again. And after the first track day this season I know I will probably be up to my ears in love all over again!

I was also thinking about making it softer by taking the 600/800lb springs down a notch. No way! All it took was putting on fresh Sumi HTR Z III to make it feel PERFECT for the road. Btw, those Sumis are the best bang/$ tire at $630/set shipped.

Finally I drove to a good buddy of mine and helped him set up his RL account and take/upload pics so he can post his 964 C2 for sale. Great guy and car, in case someone's looking for a nicely set up (street legal) DE car + Trailex trailer:

What a perfect Porsche spring day!

+1. We had a great day here in ohio too. Got the '3 out and went to cars and coffee and had a great drive in her after. Glad spring is here.

I hear you guys. I was away in Canada for 6 weeks, so when I got back to Santa Monica I had to take the car out. I went up in the hills around Malibu. The car is so fun driving the super tight canyon passes even with 900/1100 spring rates. Love this car.

Yep Sumis are fine!
I even used them for when track is wet to learn more of a driving skills :-)
Thought track season already started ( at least for me 3 day done at LRP )
Hope to see you at the track!
