Congratulations on the sale. You will miss her.

The Turbo temptation too much for you?

I knew this was coming Mike. You were up against too many 800-1000hp cars and there's only so much we are gonna get out of our babies.

Just keep us updated on the insanity that IS Russian street racing.

Unreal.

Remember, as you move into the lighter and even more powerful cars, that ole a-$$ is gonna start wiggling around on ya even at higher speeds. Make sure you have the new car down solid before taking her up to 200mph or even 130-150 in the 1/4.

All the best.

Jim

Sorry to see you go, like others said. Great stories. I would have guessed M6 from your last stories, but 997TT no surprise either. Care to mention approximately how much your car sold for in Russia, since i can't believe someone sold an 06 for $45,000 on ebay.
