It was reported on Global News that this was the 918 that burned at Caledon last night, the silver color certainly matched.

I wonder if he had replacement clause in his auto insurance policy.

Yep, that is the one.. apparently he had a fuel overflow, and tried to squeegee it off the paint toward the back of the car (and it got too close to the exhaust)

That sucks. I wonder why he had a fuel overflow. Perhaps the pump's safety shut-off (or whatever it's called) wasn't working??

Thinking about this some more... Just maybe it's a publicity stunt to build hype for dragons den

Minding my own business driving down to the local Lions Valley park in Oakville for some fall colour pix, and this Speed Yellow 997 blocked half of the driveway into the park parking lot.

Actually Will didn't, it was only 1/3 of the driveway.

But seriously Will did not impede traffic, he was there helping out a couple of Sheridan College photography students on a project on cars, people were smiling as they walked by.

Thanks Ken, Very nice.
I told the kids I want to know the marks they get for the project.
Oh and as for the parking, I had to live up the Chinese driver stereotype
