Well thanks everyone for the input. Two drives in a row now without any noise at all, so I'm going to jinx myself and just monitor it. Now all i have to do is the window regulator, and see if I'm really burning oil, etc, etc. etc.

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
Huh, just got a call. The insurance company did some more calculatin', and is sending me another 3k for my 996. Lost track, but that should bring the total to about 38 to 40. I'm satisfied with that. Plus, my friend who bought the car has fixed it up and modded it out, so it's still terrorizing the streets of So Ca.
Kalash, that racing looks fun. Why does the car on the left often start so far over and at a funny angle? Is there a down'slope there to take advantage of?

There appears to be a slight dogleg in the middle of the front straight with significant banking. I think they are trying to get a better shot at corner entry.Cuda911 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 28, 2019 5:44 pm Huh, just got a call.
