Going down in a Porsche?
« on: January 10, 2004, 06:42:46 pm »
If so, I have just updated our Porsche to Le Mans Smartgroup - www.smartgroups.com/groups/pcgblm ready for 2004.  Do join us for a message  board, photo galleries, trip registers, surveys etc. etc.  You do need to register to see all the areas.
Cheers,
John

Have a couple of dates for 2004 already if anyone is interested?

Feb 8th is the first - waiting on a March confirmation yet.

Got a Jap Car Owners Club in on the 7th Feb, Skylines, RX-7s, Celicas and the like, it should be fun....

Have taken this Porsche 944S2 to Le Mans for the past couple of years but alas my daughter has out grown the back seats so have had to buy a proper family car, Passat estate  :'(

It is of course obvious what I will be going down in.

Good to see the pic of the Commer in the back window Rick. You've saved me having to post one myself.
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

And the sort of parking you display Robbo is the thing that campsite disputes are made of!!! Or maybe I'm wrong and the white lines are there for us to park over like a taxiing aircraft ..... are you a secret wannabe pilot Robbo??  ;D

Reminds me of when I got pulled for speeding just after I past my test.  Flat out in a Mini down the centre of the road.  

Copper said to me "what do you think you were doing sir?" I replied: "just like it said with my licence officer - 'tear down dotted line'"

It was a  14 day old car, so didnt want to get car park dents ,so used both spaces. Although there wasnt anyone else in there at the time.

I have treid on many occasions to get my cars flying, but i cant get enough jump speed on...

Mark - Thats a fantastic MG . Nuff Said.  Bravo  :)

Jap cars eh.

A little off thread, but...
Last year I was forced to buy MrsH a new car, there was no way I could get around the comprehensive failure ticket from the local MOT shop. I can't remember what I'd been up to, but it couldn't have been good, as I dug very deeply for the damn thing, I obviously needed browny points badly. Anyway, she got a Honda (I know, I know...) but with one of these VTEC widgets. It's a maniacs car. Just when you think it's about to start wheezing it goes mental, I've had it past 9k on the revs, it's only a matter of time before she kills herself or takes out a row of pensioners at the bus stop.
If I took it on the race track I'm sure it would be a hoot, my browny account however would be totally ransacked, so I'll have to pass.
Talk about turning Japanese..... which brings me back to 'going down' in a Porsche.
