Howdy All
Just getting into the P-Car world, and if all goes well, will have a "late model" 968 in the stable within the next few weeks. Not new to high-performance, having spent most of my life on 2 wheelers (XL175, Seca 400, DT200, FZ600, TL1000R ...) and more recently with a Mach 1 Mustang. Over the years, have spent many many days on the road, in the forest, and on the race track.
Unfortunately, I have had too many fellow riders and friends meet an untimely demise on their crotch rockets, so am converting to 4-wheelers where I at least have half a chance. Also, sadly recognizing that in my 4th decade, my reflexes are not what they were when I was younger ... (TL1000: 3.2 lb/HP; 968:13 lb/HP )
Hoping to take advantage of the Porsche Club DE days and really see if I can hone my driving skills on the same tracks that I used to race on. Will be an interesting journey, one which I will surely chronicle with you lot as I go along.
Cheers !!
