Actually, The 997 Leaves Little To Discuss
Wheels, Exhaust, Cold Air, and a few other minor issues. Maybe I am missing something!

You're dead bang on. The car is pretty well designed, and there is a relatively limited amount of mods that can be done. Also, none of our cars are old enough to have developed a lot of problems to discuss.
Oh well, there's always biznoobies.

Drive mine to and from work every week day. Total round trip 76 miles. My commute is one of the best parts of the day!

We can also see if Mike will fess up on that hilarious clip of his! Or discuss whether or not that's a doctored clip. 
It looks so real but I suspect it's doctored. See how the walking penguin's left foot breaks through the thin ice just as the prankster penguin slaps him? He was already falling down when the prankster takes his swing. Notice also how the prankster penguin's head and body remain motionless? If he was actually striking the falling penguin you would see his head and upper body move backward slightly from the reaction impact. Also, there is no shadow cast by his swinging wing as he raises it and swings it forward.
So I say it's a doctored clip. A very ingenious one at that. The original clip more than likely showed the walking penguin stepping in thin ice and falling through while the other penguin was just standing there not even noticing the approaching penguin. But the doctored one is so much more enjoyable to watch!
Where'd you get it, Mike?

I'm not creative enough to have made this clig. I got it from a friend. Sorry, but I've no idea of its origin. I'm pretty sure it has been doctored to include the penguin "helping" his buddy into the ice. Glad you guys are enjoying it. FYI, thanks to Gosane for helping me figure out how to post it. It's too big for Rennlist.

You mean the undoctored one? Great! Thanks a bunch! It'll be fun to compare the two.

Oh, they're penguins. I thought they were a bunch of nuns.
