![]() “As an old Porsche 911 guy I can tell you that in fact the term "SC" did in fact stand for Super Carrera. Super Carrera was always reserved for the pinnicle of development of the Porsche sports car, and the term was first coined on the 356 SC,--Super Carrera. As factory interest in the 911 was waning in the late 1970s the car was dubed the 911SC for Super Carrera,--as far as it would ever go in development. When Porsche AG hired American Peter W. Schutz he immediatedly sensed the stupidity of killing off the cash cow of the company and immediately injected R&D money into the 911 line instead of following the masses at Zuffenhausen who were going with water cooled and front engined designs. His sense was spot on and the rest is history Yes. 911 SC stands for Super Carrera. It was to be the last of the 911s, until a boost in development led to the 1983 911SC Cabriolet and following that, the 3.2 Carrera automobiles. Schutz turned the company around,--doubling sales and increasing after-tax profits ten-fold.” ________________________________________________ “Ah Ha! So then in fact, Porsche, in keeping with using model designations to indicate the qualitative hierarchy in their cars, deleted the S (Super) from the name of the 911SC's successor, the (NOT Super) Carrera!!” ________________________________________________ “There you go! (Actually, the "Carrera" 3.2 began in the marketing world of Porsche after they decided to keep the 911 line going.) Further evidence of this is seen in every '911' since the 911SC. Every model of 911 has been given a name instead of a number.”

I also really like the above pirate logo with the crest and would purchase several of what ever you produced of this logo as well.

Didn't somebody here already have a Porsche crest with skull in the middle?
No bad days graphics, perhaps? Maybe they would let you use their art, gratis.

I don't want to be a pirate
I'm in for another round of design #2 (I have a black tshirt with white design from the last round someone did).
I like the oval design also. I don't want to be a pirate ;-)

Sorry, but what does the German translate to?
Walter's shaft handler? That's wouldn't be good.

![]() ![]() It is actually "world domination action". I guess action and plot are close enough to same for the Germans... Walter's ... nevermind...

I was talking with Shane about something like this for the hood on my race car:
![]() (sorry my photoshop skills are limited). Basically it would go on the hood between the two seams that run down the hood lengthwise - see red box in photo below: ![]() Anyone else interested?
