What's going on 6speeders. I hope everyone started the Week off right!

I didn’t expect to have an exciting Friday, next thing you know Peter Schutz,Former CEO of Porsche stopped by to Visit with our Chairman and Autoscope's team. We spoke briefly, we made him feel at home. He was checking out of RFactor simulator,(driving a 997), we started to dyno our Superchared M3 Race cars!!! He was very entertained.

If you ever get the chance to hear him speak or meet with him, I say jump on it! I believe, he is responsible for “keeping” the 911 and doubling Porsche’s profits in the 80's. What a smart man!!!

Autoscope and "The Dream Garage" was honored by visit....

Very nice! Peter Schutz saved the 911 in the 80s. He was hired by Ferry Porsche to manage the company and bring engineering, marketing an sales onto the same page. When he became PAG's CEO the 911 was axed and no more versions were planned. The same year he joined the company he took a couple of 'moth ball storage' 911 racers to Lemans to win the race! The rest is history!
