Folks,



We are considering a new 968 enhancement kit. This will be something unusual, and will take some time to fully develop. But there is a prototype that is currently in test. See pic below.























































   



Ok fine, it probably won't sell well. But this thing showed up at the car show (Oretega Hwy Coffee and Cars Show), and figured it might be interesting to send the pic.

I remember when these monstrosities were relatively commonplace in the '80s. Ugh. I miss them about as much as I miss Abba.

Gives you a place to duck back into traffic when passing uphill around a bend though... <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/huh.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

They still run around Phoenix streets unsupervised. I particularly love the deafening tire noise that drowns out my radio when they are beside me.

I love my 968 for what it is & don't hate it for what it isn't!

surprised he hasn't been nailed here (or maybe he has) - we have a maximum headlight height law here - he is well above that



cracked me up when this little 3 wheeled vespa rolled by it going the other way - i swear the little thing actually "jumped" out of the way

Looks like it has air bags, he should be able to "lower" (term used very loosely) it.
