Thanks Chris! BTW, loving that new slantnose

As a reference point, I had the GT3 in the 1:40.xx range so I am still 5 seconds off. With that said, the Turbo time was done with stock seats / 3 pt belts and 40+ HC Nitto NT01's. I also shift much slower in the Turbo as I can't just bang through the gears like the GT3 box.

Thanks, the 'wildness' of the slant reminds me alot of driving a 996 gt3, actually.

What's the over/under on how many days before the first non-mod after he gets his next car? What ever it is, I'll take the under. LOL!

He's up there with those high falootin' 997 boys and their fancy 19" wheels.

BTW... looking at his posts, I think I won the under.

Didn't he order his first non-mod before he actually got home with the car?

That's a beautiful new sleigh you got. Hope you get some good non-mods from Santa.

Dell's avatar shows that his heart is still with the 996tt

I will keep that avatar for as long as I can. Great times in the Turbo with my boys!
