Best "Other Cars" photos
Post photos with any/all comments. No cheating. Mrs. S's Grand Cherokee at the Gold Mountain cut @ dawn.
Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.
Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

Re: Best "Other Cars" photos
I get a lot of comments like "it's a lot faster than it looks" which is fun.
And I have a lot of fun driving the track.

Comments are not accompanied by a photo will be removed.
Photo for this post pending, so back off.
*edit* The last photo in my camera roll of my 986 before I traded it for my 996. This car was special to me in several ways. First of all, it was my first Porsche. Second, Mrs. S. and I found it CPO on the Pioneer Porsche lot, and we researched extensively for days before we went up there to see the car. We settled on a price ($25K - it was listed for $31K). It was one-owner, low-miles. It was worth $22K on the used car market, but I was wise to the IMS bearing issue and figured the CPO warranty was worth WAY more than three grand.
We rolled out of the dealership in our $25K CPO seal-grey Boxster on my 40th birthday...that was kinda cool.
It really was a beautiful car, and I genuinely regret not keeping it.

My former 1993 300ZX 2+2. While technically a sports car I never thought a sports car should weigh over 4,300#'s and only produce @220 hp. Welcome to the early 90's. Well it was a good interstate cruiser.
Never gonna make you cry...

My two 996 Turbos. Blue is low mileage all original, I should probably sell it. Black is high mileage well used POS, just like all my other cars.

Re: Best "Other Cars" photos
This was a few winters ago. We got 40" of snow... digging out would have been a life changing event. I borrowed a Bobcat to get rid of most of this stuff.
Re: Best "Other Cars" photos
Been there. I just let Mother Nature do the hard work. I think it was about 3 months before we could get the 996 (left bump) out and about 4 weeks for the BMW (right bump).
