Red car is my former track car; 993 is current object of affection.
With luck, they will be reunited at Zone 2 VIR event in March.
Nice stable......

I have been toying with this idea as I don't like the wee tire trailer I am currently using.
I take the whole thing off. It's on only to transport wheels/tires to/from track. It's the Porsche factory roof rack + my own little engineering bit added to locate 4 wheels. It actually comes off pretty easily, one-man job, not bad at all.

Maybe you should let "Larry" drive your car. He might be better than Lewis!

BTW Geoffrey, very nice. I was thinking about the 6 speed manual, but I wussied out.

Default If you look real hard you can see the truck in front of the trailer

The truck we had (went missing and being replaced) was a Ford F350 PSD Dually CrewCab. The replacement has been ordered and will be a Ford F450 PSD Dually CrewCab.

yes, for 10 years! This particular 928 has over 77 race days on it too!

Here is a pic that may show up in Grass roots racing magazine.
They like the story of what could possibly be, the fastest self contained race car in the world! Kind of a miricale car too. Working on season #7 this year. No mods, except a street sport suspension, bigger tires and a set of headers. 1:39.0 at laguna seca. got to love that porsche durability. (original engine from 1986, never been apart!).

The only trailer ride, was the one it took to Road america in 2004, but i had to drive it 5 hours to LA to catch the trailer ride to Wisconson (and Home after the race)

Mark K,
Are you saying you've stuffed all that in your race car and driven to all the races!?
