Never run the North Course, buddy. Only the full. 2:14s there. What about you on a bike? What kind of bike? I've always wondered.

Having a blank caliper isn't too bad, we had two seperate incidents with 996 Cup cars that arrived straight from the factory. One had pinched hard lines to the steering rack and another had sway bar links that weren't even tightened.

Around 1:37-1:39 on a Yamaha R6 600cc bike. The bikes must be quicker just due to the power to weight ratio. I know I personally would be faster on my bike than I would be in my car but I cant wait to find out.

Interestingly enough, i have "Targa 4S" illuminated sills and a "Carrera 4S" badge on the rear deck. F'ing Germans.

a guy on rennlist just took delivery of his 997 GT3 with a tiptronic steeringwheel from the factory. it was the correct deviated stitching with alcantara, but it had the tiptronic buttons!

personally i thought he should keep it and wire the buttons upto the stereo or something.
