This thread is now tied with the "Glad to have a V8" thread for length! Not that I ever actually read that thread.

More length

That's because you have square bumpers.

rs911t, don't worry about your name on that Gruppe B list; I won't rat you out. STAND PROUD FELLOW R GRUPPER.

I dont have a square bumper Mr914. I own a 1966 911 all original. Nothing says you have to have a pc of crap to be in the club. The key is that you dont fit the mold for the other clubs.

Oh yeah and I also have the 76 B@st@rd car as well.

I think those pics pretty much show that we arent a bunch of guys driving monstrosities right. I need a digi camera so I can snap some.

OK Peasants, your King is awake. I see you have not put King Racea911's name on your list, and that is fine. Everyone knows I am the King and there is no need to be redundant by adding my name to your list. It would just be seen as name-dropping. I am happy to add an air of credibility to your little club.

By royal decree, the official name shall be shortened to Gruppe B. I feel that King Racea911's Gruppe (of) B iatches just doesn't have as much of a ring to it. While it might be comforting to pretend that the B stands for Bast@rds, we all know what the B stands for. Have a good day my subjects and #001, please stop lusting after my throne. While you doofus's were picking random numbers out of the sky to represent your membership in the Gruppe (of) Biatches, I declared myself King. Read the thread. What's done is done. While #001 reached for the coolest number he could find, short sighted as it was, I came in as Ruler of the roost.

No more pretenders to my throne shall be tolerated. #001 get ready with the bucket, that burrito is talking to me somethin' fierce.

Anyone know the official, correct spelling of the word Biatches?

All Hail Racea911, Gruppe B King

All these sexy rear shots of the Gruppe B cars has got me thinking of a similar picture I have of some hot big bumpers.

Surely you jest When was the last time the US DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION designed ANYTHING sexy. The last seductively curved (not BOXY, FOXY!!) Porsche bumpers were chromed.



Schwing!! Just like the sound made by an early 911 door shut firmly.

Yeah, but see the difference is Tabs really wants to be in the R Gruppe but isn't invited to join. The rigorous procedure for joining the R Gruppe will wash out Tabs everytime.

The rigorous procedure for joining the Gruppe B, is picking a number that isn't already chosen by 12 other guys.
