The vette actually sits outside, but has a cover.

We are planning on doing the next SDBMWCCA autocross in december. I rarely have time to enjoy my car properly.

Wanna join us then? It's Dec 4. I will probably post a thread about it after registration opens.

Oh nice! You get a 1k discount off a new or certified BMW after a yr of membership! I'd be down for sd if there's no track days near by

Get a rental and come out!!

Thanks for the clarification.
SD Porsche Car Club doesn't allow verts either. I'm itching to do an HPDE without pestering the Pops for his 997 4S lol.

Interesting! I was contemplating running through pca for the roadster a couple of yrs ago. I guess the insurance and liability is getting too high to run verrts on the track. The 4s would be a beast on streets w awd. My base 997 was a handful

less than 2 weeks away! I found this buyroadwrap.com at pepboys for $30 18"x100' or $13 for 6x100...if you cant find it at your stores lmk and I'll pick some more up for you guys

I saw a couple of reviews and it seems to work well. No residue when removed and a thickness of 2.5 mil. You can also layer it if you want more protection. You can't beat this price, considering that it even costs less than painters tape


For track prep, the only thing I'm doing is adding camber up front with a toe out alignment and flushing the brake fluids with at blue...cant wait gentlemen!!

If you have a pop up tent, that would be great too...I'll have mine but having 2 is much better! Water is provided for as well


10 more days till we can get our fix!!
