Of course we do another one next year!!!!! We will have one of the admins cars "Duane's" involved in that one for sure......thanks for the compliments and maybe we should have a special monthly porsche editorial section in the magazine with all the information we have here on 6speed ? A 6speedonline/European car special Porsche blurb every month say?

Hi Les,

I was about to jot you an Email. Just got a few issues at a news stand today and LOVED it. It was represented very enthusiastically and just conveyed how much fun we all had. I'm really glad you were the guys doing this! Getting Cort was ab fab. The driver comments for me were the icing on the cake. Having him debrief us their on the car in terms of what he thought was brilliant.

Next year, let's make people leave guns at home. We don't want anyone shooting bob!

PS The photos you took were SUPERB as well

I didn't participate, but loved the article, well written (".. as if it had been driven in the desert for one week" also "... stay a while and reflect on his high velocity behaviour"), nice photos (Fred's & Sharky's especially), great in-depth overview of each monster (Driver's View section was really cool). Only part I didn't like was the "manservant" comment.

as a side note I was at a Porsche dealer and overheard 3 or 4 customer groups talking about the article ... and the salesperson mentioned it to me too, saying I should check it out.

Really was a nice bump for the entire Porsche community.

Thank you for a great read and comparo! I believe this issue was perhaps one of the most anticipated this year!

Kudos to European car and all the 6speed members' cars! Way to represent!
