mrdunlop944 Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) Just sat down to dinner at 5:00pm when the phone rings, KevJ on the call display. "Mike be at my house in an hr, sunset is at 6:45pm, looks like we may get some great shots." I finish stuffing my face with a rushed dinner, and headed out the door. I showed up to Kevin rushing to finishing dinner while offering me freshly baked biscotti. Thanks Jane! It was the best and the freshest biscotti I have ever encountered. After all the rushing around we settled at the location, Kevin took numerous shots with different angles and lenses. I couldn't be more happy how our last minute adventure turned out! Here are a couple shots from the evening.

Rick Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) Hi Mike .. I was at Cosmo's today to schedule my GT3 in for a "subtle" modification. I managed to source a ram air intake scoop from a GT3 RS (from Germany) .. to add to my car. Let's call it a late birthday gift to myself! It will add 10 hp to the engine output at speeds above 65 mph by pressurizing the air box. Saw this as a great compliment to the IPD intake plenum I added last winter. Can you ever have too much horsepower? While there, I saw your little Red rocket under a mass of protective poly! Do tell ... what's up with your ride? signed .. curious Barnsey Edited October 17, 2015 by Rick Quote Link to comment

Hope to see you soon....perhaps a coffee run or a quick lunch....should have my car back Wednesday Mike.. When I see high performance cars wrecked like this it makes me ponder the requirement for owners to undertake some advanced driving training to control their machines. Perhaps a good question for the club to investigate and once established invite others to attend to manage costs etc. Always up for a coffee Mike, txt me on 40three3nine0three0eight6...........cheers Quote '21 Macan GTS PDK Miami Blue/Black, 7k kms '93 928 GTS 5 speed Polar Silver/Linen, 192k kms '88 928 S4 A/T Black/Ivory, 190k kms '09 Cayenne GTS Tiptronic Nordic Gold/Black, +336k kms '88 928 S4 A/T Red/Champagne, 110k miles (US car) Link to comment
Rick Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Hi Mike ... Recieved my Rambling Rose newsletter yesterday and saw the article you prepared on the custom wheels you had built. Good story. So ... Is there a series of articles coming ... or are you now allowed to share the broader story of why your 944 is in at Cosmo's? signed curious! Barnsey! Quote Link to comment
mrdunlop944 Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) Rick..thanks for the kind words. I have a series of articles coming out, I would love to share pictures and tell you all about it but it will be more fun for me to have it in the Rambling Rose. I hope it will spark interest in other new members to do the same. we all love reading stories on P-cars and the distance we go to make the cars our own...I can't wait to see your new addition to the GT3. fall story has been submitted, my winter project will start in the next couple weeks it's more of a technical article it's been fun. I'll have my car tomorrow it looked amazing.
