All I can say is Damn Kevin, you really did a nice job on your car. You need to bring it by one of these days and let me check it out. I am out in the garage now working on the Chalon. The welding is done and now I am dropping the back of the trans to fix the drive gear and then the suspension. We will have to go for a run down to PCH or something.

I had a hot rod exhaust shop build it for me from the end of the headers out. I also had the same guy modify the headers for better clearance around the oil piping. He's in San Juan Capistrano and does mostly custom hot rod work but "likes these little cars" and has owned Porsches on and off. He's also heard a lot of exhaust systems and knows what sounds cool and looks good. I wanted that 917 screaming at full throttle exhaust sound from the LeMans movie. Yeah, go head make fun but that is one of the best exhaust sounds ever. We talked through a couple of options before he fabbed my system. I also had him notch a new rear valance to go with it but I haven't painted it yet so it's not installed. It's a basic two-in two-out exhaust using a Dynomax muffler. It might be a little loud for some but if you keep your foot out of it it's just fine. It does set off car alarms...I don't care. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Later,
Kevin

What's so special about the '69 that was in many of the photos (yellowish racecar?)? It looked okay but those tail lights HAVE TO GO! That style looks great on a Ferrari but not a 911.


They're "R" lights. Check the Excellence article on the car... bout 6 months back.

My girl and I attended for our first Porsche event. It was super fun driving those roads, especially with 930s zooming by now and then. We had a great time and met a few people. We also logged 340 miles. The only bad part was when my car wouldn't start at Big Bear Lake thanks to the high elevation... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Toast,

Sorry about tailgating you, but I couldn't help myself on those roads!

That was you cranking the engine?
i was only a few feet away and started walking over to suggest holding the throttle wide open while cranking (too rich, that will usually help) when it started to catch and sputter, then it cleaned out.

No..........sorry I couldn't go faster! I didn't mind the tailgaiting, it was fun! Sorry about that one corner. Damn I felt like a dork. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) I felt bad for holding up the crowd, but that's how it was.
I wanted to meet you guys. You both looked like fun people. But leave it up to me to pass up the meeting spot and get halfway around the lake before I realized no one was behind me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Hope I get the chance to again soon. Nice car by the way. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

I had NO idea it was this bad!!

That's not smog, that's just dust and stuff from LA (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

The Indians had a name for that area "Valley of the Smoke". I forget what the actual name is. That is the translation. And I dont mean India Indians (in case there was confusion)

Andy, Linda's smile when she's in her teener should be our club logo.

If you live in SoCal long enough, you learn to be afraid of air you can't see.
And we don't use the term 'indians' anymore because of that confusion. People from India are 'dots', American Indians are 'feathers'.

Nice seeing you and your smooth driving friend (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

Birgit is dying to see a picture of the "tail" on her Boxster in the "UP" position (this after seeing CARS) where Sally Porsche has her tail "UP" with the tattoo/pinstriping showing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
