Excellence Tech article for all the Carrera GT owners

This is hilarious, given the recent feedback to Excellence about lack of tech articles, anyone see the most recent (July or Aug) issue?

It's a special how-to for installing mesh for the front wheel vents to keep the nasty stones off your 300K car. Other than this hilarious article, there is some great RSR porn in there, so they are redeemed

Well, I can see why some would need this mesh.

However, I drive my CGT only on my private race track in Brazil, which is swept clean of all stones and debris by exquisitely trained monkeys, imported especially for this purpose.

Why for? Just run to your local U-Haul, it only cost me $119 for my C-GT's hitch installed, now I can drag my flatbed full of lawnmowers all over town.

I was letting my 3 year old help Daddy wash the CGT the other day and he dropped his sponge in the gravel then proceeded to sand off the paint on his side of the car. God I was laughing!!
