Give your wife power-of-attorney, Mr. Attorney, and come on over!

Not at all. 2 years ago I did the SP race then Daytona the following weekend. That was a busy week and a half.

Was good until my car burnt an exhaust valve the first day on the oval.

Paolo, didn't you hear? They cancelled F class so there's no reason for you to come down. ;-) Sorry, no refund, though...

Paolo,

Now that you have your suspension fixed, you need a new avatar.

See you at SP.

I think the key is being a finisher.

Was a close call on my wheels but they are in hand and shod with rubber. I am in for DE to sort the new car, help with Tech and drove for the Porsche Dealers demo whatever. Spending time mucking around in cars driving my car and driving a PDK on the track while clocking work time, tough life but someone has to step up.

No more "looks like nice"weather" talk! bad voodoo.

BTW, for those that are attending, Porsche of Tysons Corner have announced that they will have a Panamera at the track. The Panamera, along with some 2010 997 PDK cars, will be available for drives on track. If you haven't driven a PDK car, don't miss this opportunity!

CORRECTION: The Panamera is a static display, with no rides on offer. The PDK cars are drivers.

Join us on Friday, October 2nd, from 9 to 4 at Summit Point Motorsports Park for a sneak preview of The 2010 Porsche Panamera.

Porsche of Tysons Corner, in cooperation with the Porsche Club of America, invite you and your guests to Summit Point for the PCA Potomac Region Club Race Weekend festivities. Every year, PCA members and guests get together to enjoy some exciting races, be among like-minded Porsche enthusiasts, check out new models (like the new Panamera) and even get an opportunity to drive their own cars around the race track. Additionally, we will provide new Porsche for test-drives. If you think this is something you will enjoy, just simply show up. No tickets necessary. We hope to see you there. Event dates are Oct 2nd thru the 4th please call or email for further details.

nope, same a$$hole as always just have the keys to some store cars.

quit with the R_ _ _ talk! T3 goes real slippery and more so you close in on the apex. Suckers you in and then spins you up the hill in a long slow arc. My fav corner to loop it in.

I would think flying down into the carousel and standing on the brakes to start the car rotating left won't be a good idea either..
