I think you are right. After driving the 944 I have to start over with the 911. By the way, the 007 will be there Sat if you want to give her a go Troy.

They were a lot busier in the car than we have to be in modern machinery. It's really impressive.

Ha, true to history, the old 911 competes against cars with twice the displacement then too.... ;D Oh.....and from the video, it's obvious by the driver's legs jammed under the steering wheel that he's not the primary driver/owner. Figure they could have done a better job with compromise on the seat position.... ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) That's what I look like driving Eon's car. Can't even lift my foot off the gas to get to the brake.... ;D T

I appreciate the offer, but unfortunately I won't be able to make it out there Saturday. I'll be reinstalling the transmission in the CRX, so I have something to race on Sunday.

You are quickly becoming the Ken Orgeron of Circuit Grand Bayou. ;D Keeping 911, selling racecar. I will have to sell racecar and race something cheaper if I want to keep 911 as project. SO, MR2 is now for sale. Plus I'm hot and heavy into the rust repairs on the 911 right now. got about 50% of the old gas tank support/suspension pan out already. After this it will be at least a solid running / driving car! So, I have actually already procured another racecar. It's substantially cheaper than the MR2, but also substantially slower (for the time being). I doubt it will ever be as fast as the MR2, but will give me some money in the meantime. Patrick
