Where would one find Jerry Woods-Smart Racing, on the internet. Jerry Woods site says under-construction. Thanks

Here's the Smart Racing home page
http://www.smartracingproducts.com/

and here's a link right into the catalog (.pdf)
http://www.smartracingproducts.com/pdfcat/srpcatalog2004.pdf


The catalog is pretty big so it takes a while for the whole pdf file to load. Jerry Woods Engineering stuff is down in his own section of the catalog.

P.S. Give someone else (wife/girlfriend/tighta$$friend) your wallet before opening this file ! :D

All I would say is to put the stripes back on, otherwise leave it alone! :D

mmmmm leave it alone huh? well no that sounds like fun! ;) hahaha
come on Dave where is your fun side???
R- Gruppe is HOT ROD stuff man.. stock is for concours!!!
Eric

I vote "go R", but that's because I'm selfish and would love to see a good "R" look car up close!

Cheers!

NO!! dont do it. i me thinks it looks aggresive all black and the white will detract from that.

nice car.:)

Doug,
So what are you doing with the 70's car you have ...clue us in.:)

Eric

Right now...nothing. :( Julie and I are saving for a potential major move to the PNW (Portland?), hopefully sometime this year (..er, 2005). So, "The Project" is on hold.

WHEN it's back on, I have two ideas...one is a pretty standard RS replica with a 3.2 (or 3.6?) motor. The other is more of an S/T ultra lightweight replica (I'm really loving those lately!). It will all depend on funding, what I have as a daily driver, and what "mood" I'm in when I finally get this ball rolling.

In my dream, I buy a decent '87-'89 Carrera and "backdate" it to RS look and use that as a daily driver, and turn "The Tomato" into the S/T. ...oh, and keep the Boxster for convertible days. :)

But that's all a dream at the moment. For now I have to live vicariously through y'all.

Thanks for asking! SmileWavy

I second putting the porsche script on the door.

Doug,
WHy are you guys leaving.. you don't like Ohio anymore?:) hahah

you can keep it stock looking on the outside, but modified on the inside (suspension, motor, etc.)

What's the best place to buy the side script, I haven't looked anywhere yet. (not even here, sorry Wayne)

Doug, I call first dibs, if you DO move, the 911 can stay HERE !
If you start looking to download it, I'm first in line !!!

I'd like to put the script back on, then go with R lights, a sport exhaust, re-lower it a bit, consider rally lights (horn grill type like yours Dave) and then just enjoy it until I get the next one (SWB???) to REALLY "play" with...

I think the sport muffler, and the ride height / set-up to include new bushings are the first step.

Doug,
I agree the early car should not have to travel that far..:) it's too old and and all.. let it retire here!:)

Eric, A future welcome to your future home in the PNW.

One thing tho - in order to keep the PNW as good as it is (and esp. as the popn grows) there are some things you can't do here. One is that in Portland you need to smog your car. Second, there are constraints on house and lot design.

The 911 with silver Boxster pic reminds me of what my driveway looked like a few years ago (Boxster is gone now but the older 911 remains).

Well, now that we've thoroughly hijacked Richard's thread... :D

randywebb - Thanks for the future welcome. (I'm sure by now you realize it's me..er, us...that are moving and not Eric. ...or is there something you want to tell us Eric?) We spent a week in Oregon this October to get a feel for the land, so to speak. We hit Portland, Newport, Ashland, Eugene (briefly), and back to Portland again. We're convinced that Portland is the place for us. So now it's a matter of finding a job and getting out there! I'll look forward to meeting Pelicanites and Rennlisters and PCAers and R-Gruppers when we get out there!

Eric and rexav8r - I've had many thoughts of selling "The Tomato" before moving and just buying another once I'm out there. Still not sure, though, since it IS my first 911. But if you guys are serious, I'd be happy to talk turkey. But before anybody gets all salivatory...the car does have some rust issues (front tank support and door sills), and the "Fuchs" (which were fake) are now gone. But otherwise it's a pretty good car ..oh, and you'd have to promise NOT to part it out.

Back on topic...Richard, what are your thoughts to everybody's comments? Does this picture sway you in any way..??? :p

I think we should link up this winter if we can to talk about Richs stripes and the price of TOTATO's in Ohio if ya know what I mean ;) . who'd be up for a beir and some light grub sometime soon.?
Eric

Being in a suburb north of Cinci, I'm probably the middle location. We could have a little beer and pizza gathering at my hut if you'd like? Could be fun! Thoughts...???

Sounds good to me lemme get with Rich.. and see what's going on in his world.. I know he is leaving for Germany.... on 18th and won't be back until the 22nd.. so...

Eric

Cool. Just about anytime after new year is good with me (we're traveling over Xmas holiday). Just give me plenty of warning so I have time to "clean the house for guests". When we get closer, I may contact John Meyer and alert some of the other early groupers here. I have a handful of "other" parts I'd love to get rid of (from my aborted '67 912 project). Maybe it'll be a "Pizza and Porsche parts Party". I'll even put "Le Mans" on the big screen...
