That is indeed pretty! Looks like the Porsche factory teams will be sporting that orange stripe on all the hybrids. The 911 hybrid had that too, but with white body.

Here’s a link to the slide show of the unveiling. Simply beautiful.

Oh… 😯

Well… a little more comic-relief: Tried to sand a BRM rear tire using my normal method of a dremel and a sanding block. Not a good plan. Might need to order a new tire. Threw chunks of rubber all over my workbench. 🙁 😳

I have a hard time understanding why any of these companies charge for a catalog. Simple cost of doing business…

I have marinated the driver in Maker’s Mark, carefully baked him according to manufacturer’s instructions, and properly sealed the window to prevent any more antics.

I’m in. But I’m still on the fence regarding which car. It will either be the Michelin Sauber or the TicTac Porsche. Need a few more test laps after making a few more tuning mods before I can say for sure.

Different era and class, but my 1:24 Corvette came in this week. I’ll be running it Thursday night for the first time.

Brian,

Do you know when we would hear something back?

We’re already on the proposed list. It might take a few weeks to get the final list sorted, but I doubt we’ll get bumped.

Here’s the entry thread:

All right, we’ll just practice. Have you seen what’s available in MN?

Have a nice trip.

Thanks. Unfortunately I don’t have the keys to the car on this trip. Let me know the details about Saturday when you have them ironed out.
