nine11 is infamous around these parts
Factory order, about US$20K. More than just a chip upgrade, bigger value ports, titanium alloy connecting rods, alloy inlet header, PSE. It can rev harder and the torque curve is slightly different. The specs/numbers don't do justice to the feel. I don't have the full list of mods. Maybe somebody else could oblige. I don't think X51 has been released on the MkII yet. Overall, GT3 is cheaper than spec'd 4S. I wanted a cabrio and 2+2. I do love the width of the tail on the 4S. All said, I still have hardcore GT3 dreams, revving to 8K. I guess that's why there are so many Pcar variants, each has it's appeal.

what a Month..

After a gorgeous pre- F1 night drive under those stunning lights.

lady luck on my side i managed to get VIP paddock access to the Singapore F1 Night Race.(world's only F1 night race)

yes that means 6 star treatment(great food, entertainement) and enjoy exclusive pit walks, and accessing the areas usually reserved for the teams /sponsors/Celebs.

Celebrities i saw and took pics with..Chaka Khan(grammy winner) Black eye Peas, Nicole(pussycatdoll), Beyonce..beautiful linegerie model jessica michibata(button's girlfren)

Wealthy people..Richard Branson(Virgin)..and again too many

Politicians(too manY)

And over 3 days, i managed to get the top 10 drivers autographs!..(im happy with just one but oh well) as well as retired drivers like Mika hakkinen, David Coulthard, Jackie steward.

Probably took few thousand photos.

once sorted.. i will post some pics and hopefully entice you to come for SIngapore F1 next yr!

sorry guys just too excited..
