Awesome to see that you track the Porsche!!! Driving skills are so much more important than the car itself. I have seen many a car hand Turbo Ps and the like their ass because the drivers have no skill and try to make it up in $$ they spend on the car. Good Job Mang!!!!

New car.... 2001 Jaguar XJR!!!!
That is a Carrera GT. Saw one up close at Laguna Seca last month at a track day. Unreal car.
Here I be...setting up to pass a Turbo with 200HP more than my little car.
The carerra GT is an amazing car, I saw one last fall at a race track, the level of detail in the CF is very very impressive. I just think that looking at that bright yellow Cayman with the black and yellow wing, I have a hard time taking it serisously. Too many civics out there and Neons(as I mentioned) are trying to pull off the same look, and it ruined it for me. Just my $.02 I like a balance between looks and performance, otherwise it is just too extreeeeem for me. Porsches and the 6 series are beautiful cars in their own right.

My car is a Cayman. The yellow one in the top pic is a 991 Turbo. My brother just bought a 997TT (latest 911 Turbo). Stock they run 480HP, but with reliable mods you can get 800HP.
My little wing pops up at 75mph or with the flip of a switch.
Funny how the real thing gets the rice label, when the ricers are copying them to begin with. I know what you are saying.
Don't underestimate the Cayman. Porsche is not delivering factory specimens with 3.6 and 3.8 motors...yet...because it will cut into the 911 business. People are going after market and dropping the larger engines in with excellent results.

That was at Laguna Seca...here is Infineon (Sears Point) with a BMWCCA instructor.
2:00 is considered a pretty damn fast time for any street legal car. I run around 2:15 after two days on the track...not bad for a 245HP stock car and a novice driver.
