Can't wait to read it.
The West coast invite by Peter alone should have been enough reason to keep 4.0...

haha, i was trying hard to be polite and leave the rest of you SLOW eaters some food. remember, dont waste time chewing your food, as i tell max, large bites, chew three times, swallow.

any time the kids beat me at dinner, they get popsicles. they win once in a while if they start at noon and i get home at 6pm.

Too lazy to chew

^ do I smell a race forming in the paddock ?
I'm typically done eating for lunch/dinner in less then 10 mins...maybe even sub 5.

No race, I can't help it. Been trying to eat slow forever but I see food and it's gone.
5 minutes is eternity.

Dude, stop mentioning SLOW in your posts. Google alerts brought me here only to realize that I'm still waiting for Stout to send me that first issue of the new Panorama.

Gives me no pleasure to be the boogie man, but PCA can't provide Panorama content for free while charging members for it. Foreign memberships are available, though, as are individual back issues. There's also a tablet version for those so inclined, and for those overseas who don't want to wait for the slow boat.

Speaking of which, Pano is now much better than Excellence in every way. I will still get both but read Pano first completely before I start the other. And those covers... spectacular month after month.

I am away from home so I don't have my Pano...but let me just add that Mooty's expertise span into the Turbo cars as well. Recent GT2RS deal...thanks!

Hmm. Could your bankrupt post office be selling cool car magazines from 'Murica?

Thanks, and thanks for continuing to support both! We've been able to build a really neat, very dedicated team for Pano. It's been a bit of flying the plane while building it, but the good news is that the bird is (largely) built now, so we can start trying new things. This GT3 piece is definitely that. Written by a PCA member and Rennlister who stuffed a GT3 engine into his 912—with the help of PCA members and Rennlisters—it's a deeper dive than anything I've sent to the printer before. Hopefully, it meets Igooz, below, well. But we're still learning...and always will be.

The only workaround for Mooty I've come up with so far is to quote him verbally, which PeteVB did very nicely in his story. Mooty speak is damn effective here, but when we tried sending it to the printer the German presses shut down and flashed a CEL (code said "kaput"). Still working on that, too...
