Very First Drive

[andycook]

Well, it is almost time!!! My SC is finally approaching the pavement for the first time. First of, many thanks to all Pelicanites who have helped me thus far. I refrain from names because I woudl be afraid to unintentionaly leave someone out. The entire forum has certainly been a godsend for me this far in my project.

I am in hopes to take my car for its maiden voyage this weekend. The new/used engine so far has proven to be better than I expected. Still have some issues, but small enough so I may get to them as I hopefully enjoy it a little.

Having never driven a 911, I look forward to the experience. I can only hope to catch the "fever" even more after this weekend. Thanks again to all.

Never driven a 911? You're in for quite an experience. Hint: You steer with the gas pedal.

I can hear myself now....But Officer, Superman told me to use the gas pedal to turn with!

Andrew,

Have fun but be careful!! You'll never forget your first time driving a 911!!

Get used to that 915 tranny before you really start flogging on it. You'll love it from the first second though.

Take some asprin - those smile muscles start to cramp after a few hours

One Word....... UNBELIEVABLE!

Now I know what you all meant about the experience of driving my 911. I have driven alot of cars, but nothing like this one. Wow...

The tranny does take some getting used to, Looooong way between gears, but a new short shift kit is definitely on the horizon.

Again, thanks to Pelicanites who helped me out along the way. Sun is coming up, and time to get another fix!!!!!
