Local hometown has "Cool Cruzin Nights" as a charity event. When i was a kid, I had a ball doing this. Took Dad and made a few passes and a good time. Some nice comments but I was the ONLY Porsche there.

Just like it and now the community embraces it. They tried to shut it down when I was a kid. I revved the engine a little more back then and came home with less rubber!

Default Replaced my Air Filters on Father's Day
Today i changed Ingrid's air filters. She'll breathe a little easier a 6,500 RPM's today. Zen and the art of Porsche Maintenance.

Default Cleaned Ingrid's rusty lug bolts....
Used a brass wheel brush to clean each lug bolt. Torqued bolts back to 118 ft-lbs.

Happy Father's day to all. Spent a few hours at the barn watching my daughter ride. Perfect weather...

A long needed wash, interior detail, vacuum, took off the wheels and gave them a thorough detail.

Found out I need new rear tires - doh !

Yo yo yo,

I installed clear side-marker lights on my double black ( with silver accents ) Targa 4S.








Thanks @ElectricChair - good idea. ( re: "Hello World" post )

Now the car has only 3 colors, black, red, and silver. Orange did not fit.

Peace,

z.s.

Father and son detail day. I'm in love with Adam's rinseless car wash. It worked great on both cars.

Repaired windshield washer pump [while watching the 24 hours of Le Mans on my TV installed in the garage]... I was surprised to see that the headlights washer pump [that is installed on the same water reservoir] is much bigger and powerful than the windshield pump... arguably the later is more important to the former, so I found this weird...

Great road, amazing views. When I'm driving in that area I have to hit the west section of Hudson Ranch Road.

Is that like an Italian ice? Shaved ice, brightly colored flavoring, in a paper cup?

Good looking car.
