Random number assignment....if you R Guppies and SCWDPoopers have not figured it out, it must be working! How many of us do you think there really are...who's the amateur?

When you run into No. 999, will you think he is the last to sign up? If we assign No. 356911, you think you'll know if we truely have 356911 memebers? Run! Run! Guppies Run!

Structure is for the nose in the air gruppe who guard their elite status by attacking any gruppe that threatens their existance!

WOOF! WOOF!

How about Ruf Ruf? Oh wait that name has been taken right. Wouldnt want somebody to accuse us of plagierism again. You have entered dangerous territory racea911, claiming to be King when you are not is punishable by condemming you too "the rack" or even worse forcing you to drive a Pontiac Aztec for a month!

Race - Is there an espresso machine in that thing?

Eric - Does your throne have a seat warmer? Those are the best thrones!

Island, you got me. I was trying to spell heinous, but I hurried. I think it is in very poor taste to insult my choice of mods. Everyone of the mods to the royal steed Red Beauty has a function that goes beyond what you peasants would even understand. Red Beauty is at a whole different level and my loyal Gruppe B subjects are honored to be ruled by King Racea911.

If I wasn't the King of Gruppe B, why does it say that under my name to the left over there?

If you guys can just form a Gruppe, and steal a name, I most certainly will accept the calling from above to rule the Gruppe B kingdom. It's out of your hands peasants. It's good to be the King! Now, who wants to be the Pissboy? Oh wait, of course, that would be #1. Grab your bucket #1, and please hurry!

R-Gruppe is at the bottom.

Either the r-gruppie "rs911t" doesn't know a 911 when he see's one, OR, he's trying to give Gruppe B a ride into the weeds.
Now, now Island. I said I believed it contained 911 PIECES. I'm glad to hear they have standards. I was genuinely concerned someone might encounter an 2.7 abandoned on the side of the road, glue a piece or two to their Skoda then claim B Gruppe membership! If you carefully review this thread (a mighty entertaining thread I should add!) you'll see RS911T among the Gruppe's earliest supporters - the 9th post!

Greg, You need to update your website. Just cant get enough of your car.
Thanks Dan. I can't get enough of my 911 either! Someday it'll stop raining and I'll get to drive it some more.


K9 - great drawing!

What a great thread ... I'd like to register as #013 (always been a lucky number for me). I always wondered why more Porsche followers didn't see the unique benefits of these mid-year cars (especially 1974 models) ... clean lines, good power, lightweight and fun drivers! Count me in!

Regards,

If so, does that make me a "SCWDPooper Trooper"? Or, if I am considered a 3.2L infiltrator, would I be a "SCWDPooper Scooper"?


DByers-

No seat warmer, but my "throne" does have leather, 8-way power, and Sport bolsters.

Here's a couple of pics of the "Rocket". A 3.0 powered 914/6. It was the AX Zone 8 champ in 1999.
