You bought an air-cooled 911? Pah, a chipped 20VT is much faster. What a waste... :D:D:D What's that film with Charlie Sheen in. Lots of 80's 911's in it? Love them, especially the ones from that era.

Cheers Suba, happy to help Thanks Brewster, I had a look at that and the handbook and had to laugh, it's such a complicated system. I haven't had chance to take my own pics, so here are a few from the advert - Front Interior Rear

First track outing for the 911 on Monday, after it has been away for some months having all the chassis and structural corrosion taken care of. My 3.2 is completely standard in ever respect and at 191,000 miles is not exactly new, despite this it performed well with a leaky hose to the oil cooler the only issue. As some of you know I tend to enjoy a bit of oversteer on trackdays but with no LSD I wasn't hopeful, but actually lifting off into the corner to tighten the line followed by a good boot full of throttle did give a little bit of tail wagging. It's certainly different from the Caterhams and Elise I usually drive. Video here I spotted a guy taking photos and politely asked if he could take one or two of mine in return for a donation (which he refused until I asked repeatedly ), These are the results which I'm really pleased with, they don't show how dirty the car was either. Album Had a good chat with the Skyline owner, who has driven at Keevil as often as me. He has more power and torque, plus a few suspension and brake mods and a cage. Despite the Skyline being stripped I suspect his car may be heavier than mine? Good polite fun. Cheers, Dave

Looks like a lot of fun Dave - you dont see many classic 911's on track. I'm due to go to Silverstone next weekend if you want to come along (Bank Holiday Monday). RX7 needs new clutch (parts on the way from Aus), and the Indy needs an engine put back in....not sure which will be ready in time yet!!

Nothing missed, after another half a lap I did a cool down lap. All other runs through the day I had passengers so had a seat in the way of the camera, a pity as it was even more fun in the wet later Thanks Suba, I might take you up on that. A lot depends on whether I am racing at Combe on Monday. I am testing a friends Civic Type R on Friday and if he decides to enter the 90 minute race will be sharing the race. Racing against Matt Neal
