Default Double 07

No, I have not join the British intelligence service. As you can see I am not very good at keeping things under wrap. Well folks, I pull the trigger yesterday and got myself a 2007 Cup car!

Yes, Now I am the proud owner of double 07 green GT3 RS and Cup. What is the chance of that ... and the Cup car's number is 77. I better go buy a lotto, I think lady luck is on my shinny green side.

Big thanks to SD - the seller and Glen the god father of Cup car. Two great Porsche nut and true racer at heart!

I had a bad feeling once I spoke with Glen on the phone that I am toast. What made it worst was going over the technical spec of the Cup car with Todd at Topp racing - it was hook and sinker. Once Todd fire up the Cup car ... my wallet flew out of my pocket. if you must ask, yes, I like green cars and I eat avocado every day.

There are couple more small items that needs to be address with the Cup car then I will pick it up and trailer her home. She will sit next to her tame RS sibling in my garage. It will take me a while to learn how to drive a Cup ... and at least 2 hours to learn how to fuel up the car and sequence to ignition lol





LOVE the super light CF doors!



I also like my girls dirty

Well done Mike. I think it'll prove to be a good car.

Did you get a chance to run MSR in the car?
