Interesting, I have 11" +51 with 295 and feel like anything more will rub. The 12mm ones pictured are actually for the front for my track wheels because they're only 8" +57.

The summers in Texas are brutal, this summer in particular. But I do appreciate that there is no such thing as an “end of season” for driving.

I put an AIM MXm in on my customer's 997.1S I built.

What's interesting is how WRONG the water temp and oil temp instrument gauges are compared to what the ECU reads out on the AIM- the water temp dash gauge is an idiot light!

Also I had my colleague at KNS Brakes- Coby Shield to put a lap in today at VIR. With a locking LSD and some setup tweaks this is a sub 2 minute car at VIR full.

I bought an antigravity battery to put in the 911. Yet somehow it ended up in my m coupe. Go figure.

ya well we have seasons up here… I wish we didn’t however sometimes a few month break is kinda nice.

I still have this faint noise up front when I hit small
bumps at slow speeds… it’s not ball joints or coffin arms or the top bolt on the coilover..

This is a stupid question, but I need a second key and kind of dislike the 997 key aesthetic. I'm not married to having a remote. Anyone make a cool key?

yes. I believe it was called the Arid Key - try using the search feature for it or check the FB 977 enthusiasts page. He was on there
