that would be bad news. the porsches would be perfect, then we have no need to complain on RL, no drama to watch, not coolant pipes to fix or stuff to burn up.... life would be boring...

LOL wow thanks man. And well James is the cook... Poor guy never gets out of the kitchen. Ever! I'm just the official slacker/runner around here

Shame on me I know. Our marketing is well.. lacking. No shirts, hats.. we need help there to get this done. Actually after this trip we had some ideas. I promise we'll make something soon

Even from the other side of the country he worked to make it right.

+1 to everything said, great outfit that stands behind their products.

Hey anytime Bill! I might be a Limey-Yank-Porsche nerd but I'm here

Aw thanks kornmaster. I highly doubt you have that sign because you're in THE right car. Anyone with their hands on a gt3 stick, steering wheel and clutch pedal is a smart cookie in our book. A dying breed sadly but one that needs to be treated with respect, kindness and awe

after you buy 30 exhausts, you get t shirt free



man, it takes ten GPS to get you un-lost buddy.
let me know when the bow tie arrives. much more exciting than Rs,
Haha that's why you have TWO t-shirts eh? Man how many gt3s does it take to convince Porsche that if Mooty buys at least 10% of all production cars maybe they should just LET HIM BLOODY ORDER A MOOTY-SPEC-EDITION car the way he wants it!?!?

Haha that would probably be Porsche's worst nightmare! An unqualified ex-dot-com'er, journo, British-****** @ Porsche? Actually Porsche NA were _very_ nice, kind and encouraging when we meet them two weeks ago. In fact, they seemed to be a lot like us on here very much. At least the people out in the field do. They are a lot like us but indeed there's powers that be, financials etc.. that get in the way of having cars the way we want them all the time.

Guys seriously it took me a long time to respond to this (sorry). I'm just really touched and very grateful for all the time, advice, friendships and things I've learned by you guys taking us in. I know Dan & James want to kill me at least five days out of every week but they are my two favorite sharks and while I can't speak totally for them... they dig you guys and GT3s like nothing else.

There's always a need for someone who can break anything.

I broke one of only three 1Ghz Pentium III's in existence at the time. That _does_ make me qualified to break things It wasn't my fault I overclocked it because they left the voltage and clock/throttle multipliers unlocked in the BIOS for me
