Glad you had a good time and got home safely. I did manage to find a pic of your car too, although hardly what you would call an action shot. Them beers were rather nice eh

Well i'm here to tell you they can ....

Just come back from a couple of days driving round the ''ring'' and let me tell you its a greaaaat experience.

I was pretty slow for a couple of laps and then started to winde her up a bit. Best bit was passing a boxter which was racing an old style M5, closely followed by two 911's ...what a great great feeling.
Mind you to be fair I did get anihalated by a 911 GT thingy but only on the bends, he couldnt pass on the striaghts....What a great great experience and I urge you all to go do it at least once in your life.

I then went on through Switzerland, Italy, France etc etc driving some of the best roads in Europe. St Gottards pass etc etc. Car was 100% excellent during 2,250 miles and never missed a beat.


Big big thank you to Dave and Gavin in the 944 turbo for the beers, company and Dave for the flying lap...That was one Porsche i was not gonna beat on the day.
