Do not sell that car!

 

u have history with the car.
why sell.
u wont get the big $ other stupidly low miles green RS gets.
keep and enjoy like you did.

 

Don't need the $. And having it in the garage with it's other green brothers brings a smile to my face. That is why I keep all beer in the garage. Home from work, grab a beer, smile. Guess I need to put streets on it in a month or so after freeze/salt/sand goes away. I just sometimes think that keeping it parked is depriving somebody else from enjoying it.

 

I couldn't agree more. Back when I used to be (more) into high-end audio gear, every so often someone would offer to share an AMP / DAC / Pre / cables / etc. w/ the gang and coordinate a process where it would get send around the country for different people to try out. Each person on the list would get to use it for a week or two, then they would ship it off to the next person on the list. What an exciting experience that would be for your car. What could go wrong? LOL

 

Yes, It's depriving you from driving it ..... With a fast driver the car will autocross plenty fast on a street alignment. 0 front toe, -2.8 camber, 0.1" toe in per side rear and -2.4 camber... should make tires work okay. I have two seasons in on mine with that setup, It's fine for a light autocross season. When I use tires for dual purpose, the rears wear about the same on the inner edge as the outer edge. The street wears off the inner edge and autox kills the outer edge... If I'm lucky this happens about the same time the center is gone.

 

I kicked butt and ran on Hoosier A6-7s on 18" wheels. Maybe 5 events on a set of tires before wifey got them handed down to her C2S, (I have my own tire equipment). I got even wear across front and back tires. Slicks stayed on the car because it was always trailered. I remember one event where it rained just before we finished. Do not remember why we were the only two people left, but I decided to do an 80 mph straight run to get the water off the car. Car was totally freaky at that speed with autocross alignment. At peak we did 30-35 events season but 2016 we were at just 4 clubs. The was my halo year. I took my class for the season with all 4 clubs, 2 slick class, one street tire class. That was in a GT4. Now I do more track with new RS and 5-6 autocross events a season, but none last season. Just a few track days.

 

This is easy. 997.1 RS's are rare. Green, even more so. Clean Green, you get the picture. It's a keeper.

 

thats the way to do it. if I ever get out east I'll invite myself over for a beer with the green cars of yours.

 

Street use, I owned a supercharged Elise that was almost a 100% dedicated autocross toy and realized how dumb it was. Never doing that again.

 

My wife sure is a keeper. She is also the last to know when a new Pcar is going to arrive. At home having lunch a few years ago and I tell her "Kermy (Lichtgrun) is coming to live with us tomorrow". WHAT?!?! I show her a pic on my monitor. Is it a 6 speed? Yes. Happiness. And she goes back to her lunch. Good timing on my part as just after that my cell rings and it is the transport driver.
So last night I told her my recent thoughts. Loud stern answer NFW. Kermit stays and will be cleaned up and retired to street life.
I have a GT4 on order and was going to trade Kermy in against it. Same answer. NO, I like that car.

 

happy wife = happy life

 

Like everyone else said, she's a keeper!

 

Keep it !
