G/L with the repairs. See you at the next event.
Did that same pothole bend your wheel or was it damaged before? It was pretty deep, as soon as I hit it I cringed at the thought of what I would see when I got out and looked. Surprisingly, it looked fine until the tire blew out 15 or so miles later.

Not a problem TraderHal. My buddy showed up in his RR Corniche Cab w/ his 2 1/2 year old daughter in the back. It's a family thing!!!

Gunther,

It was great. Hope to see you at the next one. I can't make the 16th/17th of June cuz I'll be at the US Grand Prix in Indianapolis. If we can fit it in the weekend before/after, that would be much better, but you guys feel free to set it up when it works best for everyone.

This was an awesome time. I am kind of pissed I didnt put 2 and 2 together on some of you and your cars.

GarnetRedCoupe - we talked about bmore on here and I didnt even introduce myself and I know M3Cab was there in his sweet 996TT with Gt2 front end, I took pictures but didnt talk to him about it. Geez I guess I was just Porsche drunk.

It was an awesome drive, finally got to drive the TT hard. Only downside of these events is that I thought the stock TT was sweet then I see all of the other cars and now I want to go spend 10k more on mods!

Just to rub it in...here's the wheel in perfect condition pre-run...



And now you want HREs? So you want to crack wheels instead of just bending them?

Blackbenzz - you as well, and a girlfriend, lets not give her any ideas...(how would I afford all the mods I have planned!) ha..

I dont know if I would give up on that Benz, I was following you for a bit, that thing sounds real mean and looks like you can spin them in any gear.. I hear you run low 12 sec et's?
