Introducing new member
 

Hello,
I have been lurking off to the side for a while now but now that I have returned from the one year vacation that my Uncle Sam sent me on I think I can start contributing. Hopefully I will be able to provide something other than comic relief, but if not, then I guess that 's just the way the ball bounces...
I bought my car a little over a year ago but almost immediately left and am only now able to start learning and enjoying my "new" car. I just wanted to say thanks for the site and, for what it's worth, give it my thumbs up.
As I am in the learning phase I would like to know what references besides Wayne's book y'all have found most useful. BTW, thanks for signing the book Wayne. That is a nice touch.
I am trying to upload a picture of my car, but sometimes the technical stuff escapes me for a while. At least I can conduct an infantry raid like no-one else. Anyhow, great site and keep it up. Jameshttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1160387572.jpg

a Euro-RUF, very nice indeed... I bet that car really pushes your head back in the seat.

thanks for posting and welcome back!

Beautiful car, thanks for the nice pictures.

I have Wayne's book, the factory manuals, and a Bentley manual. I use Wayne's and the Bentley's the most, since they're in the garage. I keep the $$$ factory manuals in the house.

Here's the Bentley's:

Beat Army!

Welcome!

Beautiful ride!


And thank you, BTW.

Welcome to the forum. That is one bad-a$$ car you have. Black too - the pefect color.

ruf+turbo+bad boys 911 = amazing

WOW! That is one be-U-Tee-Full Porsche! Welcome to the board.

Welcome and thank you for keeping out country safe!!

Welcome & thanks for serving. I once had a lady comment to me that black cars with tinted windows were sexy. I think your car fits that description.

Very nice looking 965. Thanks for serving and welcome to the board! :D

Awesome Turbo! Glad that vacation went well. Good to have you here!

Thanks for the reply's. It took a while to get back because Uncle keeps me busy. I had the chance to get out today and tear down A9 for a while, and the p-fever is getting worse everyday

Beautiful car! I know there are alot more 'desirable' cars out there, but for some reason, this is my favorite. Of course, being a RUF model doesn't hurt it a bit! Any more pics?

Mike

Dude sweet ride!!! Careful on the Autobahn!!! Out of curiosity, how fast have you had it ??

Freakin SWEET! Need more pics!

Ya know I have never felt as safe on the highway as I have here and even the slowest cars on the Bahn here are doing at least 140k. There are so many laws here governing driving and a drivers license in Germany literally costs German nationals thousands of Euros, and they havs to take about three years of lessons, so they are a bit better at it then we are in the States.
As far as fast, I normally travel at about 180-200k, but have had it up to 260. I was doing about 220k when that grandmother passed me and the ferrari 512.

This is very true, I"ve driven it alot .. That run between Munich and Nurnberg can get crazy though..
