I forgot to mention this one mountain road that I took for 26 miles that was incredible, lots of turns and elevation changes and an empty road.
Danny, if there way an award for how to buy a car south of the border it would be yours. How can you beat finding the perfect car with all the high demand upgrades, great PPI results, former owner gives you pointers at a DE right after purchase on a great track, drive home on some great driving roads, then breeze through customs... bravo!

Congratulations Danny... great write-up too.

Posts like this are certainly motivating me to get back into a p-car ASAP.

I have my 993 in the shop for a front end respray, and the 951 is getting some last minute work done (upgraded oil cooler). Can't wait to get out on track!

graphics look awesome! first time I have seen pics of the whole car. what mods have been done to her? can you drive it to track or are you trailering?
and who is doing your resray? both fenders and hood? should be nice. are you going to do a clear bra on the 993?

It was built by a fellow Rennlister in New York to go racing- not street legal, we will be trailering to the track. I am doing a few things to my 993- I have pretty nasty stone chips on the hood, so I decided to have most of the front end repainted & 3M guarded. Of course, since I'm doing that, I figured, this would be a great time to add the RS splitters/rockers/tail, so they are getting painted & installed. I went with Frank at Prochilo Brothers in Scarborough, partly due to favorable comments from some of the guys on here.
