You won't "feel" a differance untill you hit track speeds.
Without my front air dam and rear spoiler the car gets "floaty".

I'll search for the Thunderhill drive by in the rain. You can see the airflow off the rear deack due to the water coming off the track.

The drive by is top of 3rd, to 4th, to 5th as the car goes out of site.

Give me a minute...

This is the 356 with the 4 cylinder 911 engine in it. The car was built by Gary Emory about 4 years ago. It was written up in Excellance. It's 1500 cc and he says it has 160 HP. Body is all steel and weighs 1700 pounds. Owner says he's had it up to 150 mph.

Your car looks good, Paul! Are you the only 'teener on that entire coastline?

So, by "911: several", you mean 35ish? Your numbers up above is why I ask.

Paul, you showed the car all assembled? I think it would be great to take off all the body panels and set them on the grass around the car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol2.gif)

That's about right. There where two brand new 996 Club Coupes. Which may not seem like a big deal but they only made 50!

Nope, sorry Mike. But here is an interior shot. Check out the drilled out pedals.

I got the feeling that very few of the people there could relate to my car in any way. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Paul,

Your car looks great all all those Porsche folks would pay more attention if they ever attended an autoX.

How is that new motor working out?
