A place to hang out and discuss all things Porsche.

I am going to try the 15-91-71-210 this time, seems like the 15 is always a mess once you get around Norco (stink), all the way past the 10. I'll see what happens. Let's face it though. When going through LA, there ain't no good way.

Might be nice to have the 05 TT schedule posted on the TT page...the first TT of 05 is less than a month away.
Have a great holiday,
Mike

Thanks for rubbing it in Mike.

Notice how I'm NOT mentioning why your car wasn't at the AX. See that's what friends do for each other! ;)

My other 911 turbo look was at the AX. 8)
On the white 911 I pushed a front A arm mount up an inch :oops:, exiting Willow T3 at the Alfa race last month a quickie track fix had it back on track...
Now it's at Jae's for a sleigh full of upgrades.
TT you gonna have the silver bullet ready for 05?
Hope to see you guys at a couple TT events in 05. :D

It is kinda like a baby Can Am car- 78" wheelbase, 640 lbs. dry, 130HP Kawasaki 4-cyl. 1000cc water-cooled motorcycle engine, mounted transversely (rear-mid), using the motorcycle 6-speed sequential tranny with chain drive to the rear wheels. This is in DSR trim. It can also run in CSR with power up to 1600cc, but you have to ballast up.

See http://sports.racer.net/chassis/legrand/page1.htm for details.

Thanks for updating the TT schedule Mike.
and TT if your garage is overflowing with race cars you can park one in my trailer. :wink:
TT you sit nice and low in your 7 replica, hopefully you can fit as well or better in the green ride?
My luck I might look more like a bear in a circus car :lol:
What tracks do plan to race the green car at? Long tracks too?

It definitely is overflowing, and I am going to have to thin the herd eventually, but I have to decide which one is superfluous. Kinda like choosing which kid you will give up for adoption... :(

It is a VERY small car, and fitting my 6'3" frame into it is going to be tight, requiring some modifications. I think your 6'6" body might be out of the question. :D

What tracks do plan to race the green car at? Long tracks too?
I got it for SCCA Solo2 events, where its small size is an advantage. I don't know about doing big tracks in it until I can see how I fit. It's still on the transporter making its way here from the right coast.

So what's up with your white car? Let me guess-- a 3.6 engine and a widebody conversion? Jae will probably throw on some of those trick JRZ adjustable remote reservoir shocks and some other goodies?

sheezz TT you could get paid for those revelations ,,,open your own 800 psychic hot line. :D
guess I'm just another predictable slope sliding early 911 owner.
I might take the vinyl off it and use it more on the street too..
The green car is too small for me? On a positive note that news just saved me some $$$.

Mike G just emailed me...he has pointed the car into AM... :shock:

Just kidding!!

Geez Mike, more race car goodies for the street? :roll: Why not more purpose built for racing in a class? POC V3 seems to be pretty lively. Inquiring minds want to know... :D
