This reminds me of my first off track excursion. PCA HPDE event in my 1988 stock 911 non-turbo. I had overtaken a new(ish) 911 Turbo 4S and was feeling full of myself. He re-passed me. Fair enough. I was staying really close hoping to keep momentum and maybe get good exit speed on a corner...

In my area of FL, we have lots of ethanol-free gas. In my 2006, I use 93 octane gas that has 10% ethanol; my car has pulley and tune for that, and I drive the car relatively often (3-4K/year). In my 1986 Ferrari 328 GTS I use 89 octane ethanol-free. I don't drive that car as often. For my...

Same here, from Ponte Vedra Beach.

I am pretty sure the SA helmets are also rated for multiple impacts. When I first started doing DE's I was hoping to use my motorcycle helmet - I didn't know at the time that I was going to like the track that much. I need a new helmet anyway, mine is SA2010 and PCA won't let us use them...

It does have the one option that counts ... pure awesomeness. :)

Sort of like trees? (sorry, science nerd and couldn't resist)

Add Renee Reimer to the list, please.

I know it is bad for the environment, but I love the exhaust smell of old cars. As a cyclist I sometimes think that I can no longer smell cars as they go by. One day in the garage, after I came back from a drive with my youngest daughter in one of my mid 80's cars (911 or Ferrari 328, I...

If you raise your arms it will flatten it out. Try that. :)

Really appreciate the invite. Count Doug & Renee (and GT) as in. Really looking forward to my first rally.

I'm in the same boat. New-ish FL owner looking forward to going to my first rally. Glad we are have plenty of experienced folks for advice and help, especially ones that know the proper care and feeding of our cars. :)

Registered. The look on my wife's face when I said "we're driving" - priceless.

It is a sharp-looking style. I take no credit though, the previous owner prepared it this way. I also received a set of new side stripes in boxes to put on in the future if desired. I haven't desired. :)

I'm still working on my summer/fall vacation plans. Was supposed to be in Amsterdam competing in a multisport race and then vacation in Europe the first 3 weeks in Sept but that was just cancelled. So, depending on what we do instead, I will try and participate. It would be an honor to bring...

I put in the kit from Cooltech. It is really nice and perfectly sized/fitted. The previous owner of mine had it coming out of the radiator (not too bad) but I decided to move it.

They fit perfectly.

Not really exciting, but I did pass 39K miles. Drove it this weekend with my wife, and as we were coming home we ended at 38,999.9 as we came into the driveway. Really. So today, I had to take a drive to my mom's house to get her mail and water some dry spots in the lawn so took the Ford...

I am looking forward to it. I am a relatively new owner (little over a year) and looking forward to seeing fellow GT folks and learning things.

Eventually we will run into each other - I am only 1.5 hrs away or so in northeast FL. With a daughter at UF, I always want to take the GT there, but so far there never has been an occasion where a visit didn't include bringing "stuff" there or back. If I'm in the area I will let you know.
