Embarrassed to say, I parked my car outside to do work to my cayenne months ago, and put it back in the garage and haven't touched it, nothing, just parked it. It's been a few months, been focused on work/family and my new 964 and I took the 996 out yesterday and it just works. It's such a great car. I need to get back to using it every day.

Funny how that goes; I am the same with the 991 - haven't even washed it in months.

It is modified with hybrid k24s with appropriate supporting mods. For reference, two years ago I did it with hybrid k16s and did 152mph. It is so much fun!

Did some autocross today for the first time in the turbo. Stock manual turbo. Did well! Track was greasy as hell but the AWD keeps it together. Learned a lot about the car and got it super dirty in the process 😎

that being said, that Kona N behind me absolutely crushed everybody

Don’t worry I put the phone away after the parade lap

I washed it this morning. Took it out to a guy that does PDR. Then old Chicago pizza and salad for the wife’s lunch. .9 boost 130 plus and I was back at home as a happy camper. Check the 1320 video channel on you tube. He just published their video on the Puerto Rican half mile, turbo s burning the clutches on pdks, gtr going 207 mph against 25 mph wind. Me and a customer have sponsored that event years ago.

This has to be one of the fastest pizza delivery cars.

How amazing back in black ac/dc while I was driving the dark night.

That was last Saturday, those two cars belong to Yoggi, if you haven’t seen it watch his channel yoggis garage. That 05 turbo S has like $50k worth of mods.

Stance is great. I have some Ruf lowering springs that I never got around to installing.

Default It’s been hard to find some sun in Houston these days.

We took the cabs out of town to Chappell Hill, TX and found a small patch of wildflowers to film my intro video.

Took the new 4RS to the track yesterday.... Turbo says she feels cheated on. Told her not to worry, she's still my #1

You are one handy dude - makes me grateful that @powdrhound did this for me...

I see your new fitting on the top there - still waiting for mine.
