We had to pack heat to keep the roaches off when we were working on his car. The wheels were replaced three times as they rolled away with feet.

ROFL I wondered what was up when I saw that 84 foxbody 'Stang driving down the road with skinnies and 12 inch Kinesis K58Rs on the rear... I says to myself, that guy must have won the bingo that week.

Alex (Sharkster)-
I live in San Jose area too. I am interested in purchasing one of your wings if you are still looking to sell it. First, may I ask where you purchased the wings? Is their a website?

Let me know.

Roock wing (adds on to orgiginal decklid) - http://www.roockusa.com/products/911...t.asp?catid=25
I've also seen their front lip in person on a full Roock car and it is sweet...

Hi Wayne,

That's great that you are local... Both tails are here (one on the car obviously) and the other at Bob's house (Viperbob). I got the Roock wing direct from Fabian from Roock just before the shoot out event.

Where about in San Jose are you? I live in the South part in Silver Creak. Drop me an Email and we can chat some more if you like : sharky@mangogrits.com

ROFL... thanks for chipping in there. If Wayne wants to keep the motorized mechanism on the rear decklid lid, which I originally did, then the Roock really does add some menace to it.

Hiya Eyal,

I love the 944Turbos and I've seen some really crazy modded track cars in my time... I wish I had space for one in this tiny two car garage tho Would make for a nifty daily driver...

I hear you on the Roock wing... it really is more subtle

Well, time too build one of those 10 car collection garages with tile flooring, some nice plant,s and pictures on the wall. In the corner will be a sick bay with hydraulic lifts, a nice tool set and such. Then all you need to do is find 8 more Porsches. Hmmm, 550 spyder, a 356, GT-1 road car, 2.7 RS, 944 Turbo, GT-2 (be it a 993 or 996 GT-2), and a GT-3 RS, 959.
The scary thing is, I can see myself doing this one day when I have a little money. Poor kids may not a have a backyard, lol!

Im looking to purchase a "Factory" GT2 wing so if anyone has any ideas where to purchase one at a considerable saving over going through the normal channels such as Authorized dealer or our source in Belgium please let me know.
