Default First my 997GT3 now THIS comes in!!!

I got a new work car this week. 2new cars in one week. I cant take the excitement. This work car is probably one of the best ones I have ever had.
Makes the GT3 seem old.

Now that you have finished laughing I am serious this is my new work truck there are no windows that work. There is no Shift boot there is an exhuast leak so that filters back into the cab. When I finally get to my office I smell like burnt oil. The guys at work are having a hoot at my expense knowing what I have in the garage and what I have to drive to work. When I walk in they all go "pauls here" without looking
up, They can all smell me.

And you have back problems??? Don't come crying in six months that you have to part with the GT3 cause it's killing your back cause this POS will be the cause.

Good luck on the mission, soldier!!

Cway I think I finally have a plan for the back. I wasnt going to tell anyone or identify who did this
but a Orthopedic Spine specialist has been helping me out. He has done it all for free. We kinda have
hick doctors here in my town but I am only 150 miles from LA so he looked at Xrays and my MRI for free-indentified the problem and the found me one of the best spine specialists in the country -referred me to him and I have an appointment with him next week at Cedar Siani hospital in Los Angeles.
And yes this Angel of Mercy is a Rennlister. Amazing people. Looks like I am headed for a L5-S1 fusion.

The tires are Remingtons. I think you should take that as a sign. Take it down to the back paddock and put a few more Remingtons in it.


Anyway, you should have told me you had a white track car to trade, we could have worked a deal on the GT3.

You mean IED. And while I think it's just completely off limits to joke about IEDs, that looks like the anchor used as a parking brake ... : )
