Have you seen the “stonsho” system. My dealer sold me on it, mounts under center of facia with two tubes/cotter pint set up.

What a lineup of cars at Mosport!

Link to one lap in the 12C at Mosport today.

Unfortunately I Cannot post with a timecode, but should you wish to do so with a stopwatch. If it exceeds 1:30 take it for repair.

I cannot find a "sto n sho" fitment for the Gallardo based on my quick internet search...

That "all doors up" pic at starting grid is cool!

Nice Lambo. Your story is the same as many others. Porsche playing games with their GT cars, i.e., doling out allocations to the same group of people who just drive the car for coffee and not letting others experience their marquee brand. Result: people looking at the competition and realizing there are other amazing alternatives. They then try and fix the problem by producing a ton of .2’s but by that time lots of people already pissed. I love Porsche but feel sorry for those that will “only” buy Porsche. Lots of great alternatives out there.

I'm on three years without a front plate. Don't keep one in the car, either. Been pulled over once for it and given a warning.
