It's moved to Parnell, to a (very) young guy who already has a beautiful Ferrari 355 and Audi RS4. Looked pretty damn good next to the 355. But can't believe how sad I was to see it go!

I've only lifted the front with the adapter (once). I think you'd need to back the car onto ramps to give enough room to get the adapter under but would prob depend on your ride height.

Happy to show you it...it's not tooo far to walk ;-)

You've taken one for the team. So is it true?

Thanks.

Actually just a bit lost this weekend. I want to be out playing with Herman and fitting rim and decals but can't as he's in the garage, as is Lola.

Wednesday should be good. First time with full power. Won't scare a GT3 but should be able to post some good sectors. However your scrub article means only 1 session with Z221s.

Smart man! If you and Doug start getting grumpy on the trip at the same time well be able to confirm the theory..........unless of course i its because the 993 have relegated you both to back markers!

Actually us 964/993 boys (four of us) should join in solidarity as we will be the slowest four cars in our group of 12. Everything else is sporting 100-200 more bhp and bristling with new technology/improvements and water cooled...barr Steve (assumes RS replica) who knows the tracks and can actually drive!
