Fall Drive

It’s been quite a long time since I just “drove” my car for the fun of the drive. I’ve been sick and a bit stir crazy, so I took to the back roads of lake Jacomo. I used to drive my 912 back there a lot. This time of year there aren’t too many cars, so driving in the 70s on twisty roads is pretty safe.

I’ve also included some code to allow for random image display on browser session. Makes the site feel more fresh on repeat viewings. Usability stuff. Geek stuff.

XMAS is Coming

I found a great Porsche 912 project car on Ebay that I asked my wife to get me for XMAS. At last look she hadn’t even BID!? Granted, for the cost of the vehicle, and the new parts, and additional gas, time, resources, etc. I could get that Turbo put into my current 911. Or, I could get a total engine rebuild. Or, I could get all new front and back Brembo breaks.

Moving right along, a couple people have asked me what I want for XMAS this year. I’ve been shooting a blank, till the lastest Performance Products catalong arrived this week. I might have picked out a couple items I could use in the New Year. Click Here to view list.
