So did you fill up a dumpster or is it all in the attic

Congrats on getting the cars inside. It always amazes me to see a garage full of a hundred bucks worth of crap, and a $30,000 dollar car sitting outside. I see it in all sorts of neighborhoods.

Main thing was all the boxes of stuff from moving my office home to my home office instead of the garage. The stack of tires I bought that came shipped in a Rover did take up a little extra space though.

Howdy Rick!

I have a 3 car garage, with 3 cars in it. The "crap" is stored in the 12x8 storage building in the back yard. Lawn care equipment and gardening stuff is all in the storage building. Only the good stuff is in my garage.

Judging on looks alone, I would say you most definitely are NOT!

Good morning, guys!

Sid, I am worried about your aunts husbands niece. I will schedule a doctors appointment for her. "Fluffin´here, fluffin´there.."

By the way, I am a broken man today. One of my best friends came home from Germany this weekend. Took the Hansa Scuderia racing course at the Ring last week AND picked up a new ride. A brand new GT3! I have been driving it all day yesterday. What a complete treat. I have never felt safer or more thrilled at high speed. I also crushed my old top speed record. On a piece of completely deserted highway I reached 287 km/h before I chickened out. The funny thing was that I felt completely safe and calm. Its so very planted. And I am so very envious. There I admit it.

Markus,

you felt safe and calm, and still you chickened out....

Was it your co pilot who urged you to slow down?
Was it this guy?? (if yes, then who is the chick in the background?)

In Oklahoma it's all good, Sid.

Markus, just buy yourself a GT3 already!

My heart bleeds for you. Spending the day driving a GT3, yea I feel bad for you. You better take the day off and rest.

Kissin Kuzins means you are far enough familially removed that your offspring shouldn't be any more messed up than they normally would be.

Markus, can't imagine the driving the current, out of the box racing model Porsche at speed not being a life changing experience.

The best thing you can say about a Porsche...."It's Mine!" Almost as good of a commercial as "Kills Bugs Fast."

The second best thing to say about your Porsche is "it's paid for!"

That is one reason why I drive a 25 year old car. The cool part is, it is worth 100% of what I paid for 13 years ago.

Mines payed for. I could get what I payed for it back no doubt. Could I get what I have invested? Not a chance.
