Nice!
My sister-in-law bought me a legit Porsche Motorsports baseball cap a couple of years ago, but it doesn't fit my enormous head.
Mrs. S. looks awesome in it, though. I guess I'll stick to my old "Festival of Speed" t-shirts until they fall apart.

Very cool t-shirt! I know a lot of people that went out for the Raiders-Chiefs game in Vegas. I heard the tickets were a bit pricey, but everyone seemed to have a good time. Apparently, the Vegas Raiders' fans are a lot more civil than the Oakland fans were.32wildbilly wrote: ↑Thu Jan 26, 2023 3:43 pm I have a great Son-in-law.

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
We just got a new t-shirt design in at the auto museum today. They are for The Underground, which is the classic/exotic car storage facility we have in downtown KC. Think "The Vault" at The Petersen Museum. We now have well over 300 classics & exotics in there - still with room for another 100 more, though. Anyhow, there is a hidden door tucked away on the far side of the facility that gets tagged a lot. So, I hired a local high school graphic arts student to design a t-shirt using that door as the backdrop. The bottom pick is what that door looked like when we bought the place back in 2020. I think it came out pretty well, but maybe the older guys won't appreciate the homage to the hidden entrance and its graffiti. It's kind of an "if you know, you know" type of thing. But, I'm happy with them. I also had some done with just the city outline and The Underground logo and without the graffiti & car.

Billy, one of these Saturdays, you gotta jump in the 996 and head down here for breakfast. You should do it on an autocross day: April 22nd, May 20th or June 17th. You ought to be healed up by then.32wildbilly wrote: ↑Fri Jan 27, 2023 10:53 am

That does sound like fun. I'm still recovering from the severe pancreatitis which makes the heart thing somewhere in the future. So timing might be an issue. We'll see.

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
The temperatures here have been in the 40's for the last few weeks. There's no ice at all on any of the lakes. Because it was 45 and sunny Sunday I decided to hand-wash the Cayenne as it was pretty dirty. While it came out well I did miss spots on the last few panels. Sunny and 45 degrees is not too bad when you are outside walking. Stick your arms in cold water and it's less fun.
Seems like we are going to make up for the warm January. Temps Friday night are supposed to be -10 to -15, Saturday's high is supposed to be +10. The good news (for me) is that Monday morning I'm heading to San Diego to go to a conference. I expect it will be much warmer there.
