Post I MAY be tempting fate... 959 canyon run?
...and get a nasty surprise, but it is worth it.

I am supposed to pick up the 959 towards the end of THIS WEEK! My tires aren't the best, and new ones are on the way, but that isn't going to stop me from giving it a test drive

I think I may drive around the canyons this Saturday or Sunday. If anyone in the LA basin wants to meet for coffee and do a slow canyon run let me know.

As soon as I have some driving impressions I'll let you know...

ALSO

Awesome show on Speed Channel the other night -- PORSCHE -- 1 hour special on victory through design.

Keep your eyes open for re-runs..

959, sweet! Enjoy and post some pix when you can. Are the tires old or are they just worn out? Either way, be careful and have fun.

If possible I'd like to attend as well just to see a 959 in motion. I will bring my Mini Cooper S so you won't have to try too hard to keep up

Canyon Run
I may also be in depending on time/place. Any thought of going up to Newcomb's Ranch (up Angelus Crest) for a cup? My intercoolers love it up there... :-)
