Nice sound from the mustang. Should have gone a little deeper into T4.

You didn't hear the exhaust cackle as the Mustang driver backed off? Just cruisin' and taking pictures. Sorry no footage of "well set up" 944's...;)

I think I have video from my 944 of a ****-hot Grand Am series Mustang challenge car being towed off VIR . It was broken. :(

This is something different:

Sure doesn't sound like that mustang is working very hard.

I was hoping to see some hard charging there, but instead I got parade laps.

pwd72s 11-28-2010 05:32 PM

I don't think there was any racing going on, but it was a good opportunity to observe a Cayman through the twisties...

(edit) What I'd really like to see is a video of VaSteve's well set up 944 easily blowing past those understeering pig Mustangs.

450knotOffice 11-28-2010 05:45 PM

Hahahaaah!! :)

One of the best lines of the year. Good one. :D

My sound was off :-/ ...had it playing off in the corner.

btw, pwd, I was thinking of you while on vacation.

Did you know that you can order the Mustang in Handicapped-Blue? :cool: So I had to snap a pic for ya.

Like I said, the one I recall passing was on a hook. Come on, Paul....this is the PCA, they put all the non-Porsches in a run group by themselves to go **** it up. :D


All kidding aside... this is how we do it in Potomac. Different course, but this video was already loaded. Look for me at about the 12:00 mark. No parade laps in this video.

I tried to watch it, I really did...but my 'puter must not have the punch to do so...made me seasick, trying to watch a series of still pics...like a jumpy slide show.
Sorry...

Yeah, think they call that "grabber blue"...not my favorite Mustang color...Only the Bullitt model comes in that....Dark Highland Green Metallic. ;)

I was a bait boy on a charter boat decades ago. It only took a few days before I moved up the ladder to Master Baiter! :rolleyes:
