Sure. That was most likely your Friday since you probably went back to not working today!

When I first moved to Oklahoma I went down to Teeners and old man Teener had a tough time finding some boots that my foot would fit into. I wore those for about a year and noticed my feet really hurt at the end of the day. They were good quality boots, but a chunk of leather for a sole is hard. I switched to "tennis" shoes with a thick rubber sole and have never looked back.

There is a neighborhood pool next door to the house behind me.
Can hear the kids havin fun.

Used to wear slip on leather tassle loafers with a thin leather sole. They were fantastic for a driving shoe. Really learned the feel of the pedals. Actually wore a hole in the sole in the middle of the ball of my foot where I worked the corner of the brake pedal doing the heal and toe thing. Couldn't ever find another pair that fit as well so went to hiking shoes. Did feel better standing around waiting for my autocross lap, but not as much control.

I think insulated shoes on the Cobra would work best. The headers are only a few inches from feet. It gets warm in there.

Afternoon all. Back home. 655 miles added to the clock on the 911. We had fun but wish it was cooler so my dad would have had a better time. I don't know how you do it Glen after about 4 hours of driving my left hip just kills me. Might be the SRD seats or the targa not having left leg room.

The seats fit me just fine. I can do 12 hours with no issues. I have done many 900+ mile days.
Glad you got the trip done safely.

Morning all. Nope no need to beat a dead horse. Sure was fun to go. Great goodie bag. My dad wears a hat with pins in it from almost every place he went when driving an RV. Some photographer had to have a picture.

Think you will have to get a new Targa 4S with the Adaptive Sport Seats to cure the seat problem.

If it doesn't work out, for the right price I would be happy to take it off your hands.
