[ks911]

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) I may not be your average 911 owner, but I have to speak up about the general 911 guy. Since I started the "Glad to have a V8" post on Pelican I have gotten replies from all kinds of P- owners even 914 guys thumbing their noses at my car. Considering I am active in the PCA with social events, two years as area director, and PCA drivers ed. events, will even be checked off as instructor at the next event, I have a pretty good point of veiw about those 911 owners. Think you will find that the only people that ususally speak up are the people with critical views, the supportive one usually are too scare of being riticuled to speak up. The car always attracted a lot of attention, I would have people track me down so they could look at the car, almost always wearing a big grin. It was quite rare that anyone had anything negative to say about the car even at the track. In fact the only complains that I got were that it scare them because I past them so fast. It was fast, damn it was fast!

I built the car three and half years ago and have enjoyed every minute. Now the car has been converted once again, this time back to a P- flat six so I can race PCA GT3. Also I have owned and restored a 914, only regret is that I sold it.

Just wanted to stand up for the typical 911 owner, we love cars, especially P-cars, be it 914, 928, 944, or 911.
