They're great, thanks!

Brakes were provided by Imagine Auto. Jeremy had these things shipped out for much cheaper than anyone else I asked. Give him a call on pricing.

Good thing your keeping her! I know you would regret selling it if you did.

See ya out at the next meet up. Hopefully my crapbox will be fixed by then.

Ryan,

You have convinced me to keep the "ole" girl as well.

She is workin' out and eatin' right and it would be really, really expensive to trade her in.

Oh, and I am not selling my cars either.

wachuko is infamous around these parts
Thumbs up

Good for you!! I decided to do the same. Specially after doing my first DE. I now have a different level of appreciation for this car after experiencing it on the track. But mine is no garage queen... using it as my DD and can't wait for the next DE, woohoooo!!

After Paulie's Classic Hand Wash put a number on Sharky, she is as sparkly as ever. Once the weather gets better I'll take some new pics.

Look out H-Town,

What am I thinking?

[QUOTE=houstonT;2005588

Black - don't do it! Unless of course you want to be the slowest car in the group, all the time!!!!! A Ferrari is great, if you have a 600HP car already in the garage...but not as your "fast car". Keep the 996 or find a 6-speed and do a 600-700HP package...

I hope to see both of you guys at the 9/20 60-130 event...

Peter[/QUOTE]

Peter, you're right... I don't know what came over me.. I will probably keep her if I don't get a great offer. Unfortunately I will be on the road for many weeks this fall and I will miss the 9/20 event. You should have consulted with me before you booked it.

I am signed up for the Texas Mile though.
