Well it took me FIVE weeks to get through this thread and I have to say it may have changed my life!

Back in April we trekked to LA from Arkansas, taking the LONG way around (5200 miles round trip) so we could attend Luft5. While in LA for a week we had a run with a 991 S on Mulholland hwy from the Rock Store and ended up on PCH via Decker. Afterwards we got chased by a 1-series BMW down Tuna. What a thrill!

The day before the show we joined the Professor Run where we met Chris G (porcupine) and his wife.

Fast forward to last month, Chris G was staying just a few minutes from our house due to a flight layover. We took him out to dinner and while swapping stories he told us about this thread, the MIRRC, Banning and the infamous RSR.

The next day at work I took the plunge and started reading this epic tale. I became obsessed and it completely changed my outlook on this lifelong hobby of mine. I even started timing my commute to work in the morning.....whether I'm driving my 911 or my GMC pickup (lowered, Bilstein equipped and rear swaybar added

I just received my copy of John Hall's book yesterday and can't wait to dig in!

We are looking forward to returning to LA this spring for Luft6 and driving all the roads we missed last time, including the 'course.
