I'm a minnow in terms of handing over cash at CCS and actual time on the premises but it takes me back to the first time I had a Porsche serviced there. I took a day off so I could get my money's worth by loafing around the joint all day perving at Porsches.
The 914/6 is Mike and Rosemary Pearson's...........

Youll have to use them with the 996TT John. Dave says they wont work with the 964...mind you Id fiddled the Hall Sensor wiring from his car while he was loitering around my ride so maybe thats why he couldn't see the 2 seconds at Manfield?

Must be a C2 problem! Just removed the rear seat backs. Another few kg less to run around the track. Medium heavy weight on a diet.

Remove the sound pad behind the seats and rear wheel arches - 10-12kg,

Remove your rear carpet mats - 2kg.

Between the the rears seats (7kg from memory) and the items above, you have found close to 20kg (or .2 of a second)

Pole positions around $800 USD each in basic model velour black. Not sure who would supply them many retailers in USA. IM guessing around $3500 nzd landed and taxed.

I had noticed...............

I wonder if you could get it for $70K?

I really did like your car, that 400hp was very intoxicating, and I really enjoyed chasing Chris B at 200kph in certain areas (err........naturally not on public roads...........)

I've been watching that GR GT3 as it'd be a nice upgrade for my manual 993!

Here she is due to leave the painters any day now!
