Default Mooty is a GT3 legend

If you haven't checked out the recent issue of Panorama, you need to see the great article on the 3.8, 4.0 and 4.1 RS's with some nice input and insight by Mooty. He is truly the Yoda of Porsche GT's.

I thought he was only a myth, invented by crazy Floridians—but now I know better.

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.

All I know is... I'm a vegetarian and yet I've never seen anyone eat so much salad in one go. You must still have the competition level metabolism!>!>

I read the article, got it yesterday. Nice pics. I thought the overall article was just OK. I almost felt the writer was coming from a different place than the typical gt3 owner and I didn't really connect with the conclusions.

Mooty definitely had a translator / ghost writer. I was disappointed, I was hoping for a comprehension challenge. :-)
