The 2013 season will be fun!

Last race of 2012 coming up this weekend (25 Hours), hopefully we can close it out strong!

I bet that, even without an interior, it has the new car smell.

Ya-- I'll be doing some other races in 2013, but the focus will be on GTC.

where is that car in the 997 Cup car production history? are they still going full bore with production through 2013 or are they starting to wind down/ramp up for 991 GT3?

at any rate, congrats....that's a badass ride. I'm insanely jealous

Awesome car, last of a series. I don't like the new wheels much though. Good luck with it!
