Winter eye candy
Outside the weather sucks... It's grey and it has been raining for the last 2 weeks it seems....
The track season is over and the car is now at the shop for a winter "upgrade" (more on that later). I have been thinking about writing a 1st year report, with impressions, frustrations, moments of joy etc. That is still in the works... but for the moment I wanted to share some pics Matt Howell took a couple of months ago for 911 & Porsche World... Just a tease....

Ahhhh, now that's just beautiful!! Wonderful pics. Sure beats looking @ the lousy weather here in Canada. Thanks for some Porsche daydreaming.

I would really like to read a first year summary regarding your car. I followed the build, like a lot of folks, thinking it was the ultimate evolution of the 911. I'd really love to hear how the first year on the road went. Best, Tom |

the car is actually a narrow body and the rear tires are 245 sections...  Joking aside Matt played with the lights a lot. You can see that in the interior pic. Also he had several different filters he applied on the lens. I have some 200 pics from that day and you can tell the difference the lights/filters make. Photoshopping each one of them would have been a poor choice of how to invest one's time. Plus the car really does not get too offended if one thinks it has got big hips

I am working on that. I'd like to make it a nice read, and my natural skills lay in a different field. I am organizing "memories" right now....
