I've not warmed to the Magnus designed wheels at all. I've looked at them a lot over the last week and really don't like them. I wonder how many others feel like this or is it just change we don't like.
Give me Fuchs or those gold wheels of his on an old 911 any day. Just my opinion.

That black 964 with the magnus wheels looks very low or is it just the optical angle of the pic? The 964 track boys here need to take a look....
..........and macca that 993 is not finished yet? that big ***** engine is going to spill a few more coins out of the piggy bank. Then its going to be one of a handful like it in the world.

You ain't wrong Graeme. That's rothsports 3.9 creation in road tune with their new custom intake plenum. It makes 406 bhp on pump gas at 7600 rpm with a 8000 rpm redline. The really exciting part is the torque - 328lbft the same as my GT3! These are engine dyno figures as they have one of the best race engine dyno rooms in the business. It's a 120 hr race engine meaning I believe that it's essentially strong for road and track use. Yes it would make my 993 very special indeed but it's big boys money for a build like that so will require a big financial win to make true....

John. I'm not a big fan of turbos for the type of driving I enjoy. I've owned plenty of them. If I was I certainly wouldn't have bought a GT3 with a 9000 rev limiter.....each to their own I guess....

Most often a Panasonic 20mm lens on an Olympus EM-5 body (although I think they were taken on an old Panasonic GF1 body). Great combination, and small enough to throw in a glove box or jacket pocket. Highly recommended.
Doug, good to see mine wasn't the only 911 out in this horrid weather this morning!

so Macca at the mix of driving that you do - road and track - how do you assess the equivalent of 120 hours race? I mean how long before significant mainintenance? I suppose if you dialed the revs back a little 7200 instead of 7600 in driving you may extend to 180 hrs?
