    It's certainly possible... Might just start at stage 1 which is software only as see how that goes. The car is already fast, and I'm not going to start doing 5.5k clutch dumps to get 1/4 mile times. Maybe I'll even just leave it how it is... Got into it with a sti the other day and it wasn't close. Would be fun to smoke the occasional C7 though!

    Hey.4rustic, wanna race? Lol...

    I had an Aperta on consignment through the guy I got this coupe from. Got 350k over MSRP for it.

    This is the 3rd coupe I have had. One of the most epic vehicles I have ever driven.

    An F1 street car with alcantara accents.

    Going on a half day drive with the ski town car club tomorrow, should be fun. At the camera shop to fix my DSLR situation, will post pics if I take any decent ones.

    I've always loved the Porshe 917 as well, but the P4 tugs at my heart even more. Maybe it's a childhood thing, but the P4 truly IS Beauty meeting Speed.

    Thanks for the great vid, Beer Drinker!

    If you could reach into time and bring back the beauty of a thousand sunsets and a thousand sunrises, hammer it into form, put wheels on it and add the sound of a thousand galloping hoofbeats, you might end up with something like this:

    I used to be, until getting unexpected and tricky to handle yaw at speed in f/r layouts. F/f VWs are tons of fun and f/awd as well. The grip from r/r with a big stagger is almost more stable than any of the above outside a really well engineered mid rwd or front awd layout.

    Part of me really wants this 2700 piece 911 GT3 RS Lego set. The detailing looks amazing and it should be considering the 575 page assembly instructions and 10-12 hour assembly time.

    I say this now until I spend $300 and a week's worth for free time and then my one year old smashes it on the ground.
