yeah, hans to his friends. some builder huh?


in totally unrelated news, I only just learned last night that the original designer of the mustang was a guy shinoda(sp?) Japanese guy and he did the first sketch. thought that was pretty cool. then when he did the boss 302 the rumor was the name was because he always referred to it as the "boss'" car since they wanted an upgraded version, this in spite of the fact that EVERYthing "cool" was "boss" back then. eg "khj 93!!! boss radio". "it's boss, that's boss" etc teenage fair was "boss"..


lol. geez, i'm old HA.. sorry stilov hans mezger, what a guy

...and as far as rumor says here in the holy motherland of porsche, the brand new 991 GT3 RS got a modified version of the good old Mezger engine adapted to the PDK and the direct injection. The crappy 991 Gt3 engine got dumped and burried with the Gt3 itself. R.I.P.

That's an entirely plausible rumour. I like it.
