Carrera28 Posted 26May, 2018 Report Share Posted 26May, 2018 Alpine drive with some Canberra Porsche Club locals before they become too heavily policed for winter traffic. Some amazing roads with a combination of tight twisty and some wide sweeping corners as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoHeadsTas Posted 26May, 2018 Report Share Posted 26May, 2018 Took my 996 down to R/C yachting today, as one of my fellow sailors told me he has been a Porsche nut for years. Turns out he'd never had a ride in one despite being a fan for 20 years, so I did my civic duty by taking him for a good long drive in the 996 and then we popped home and I took him for a spin in the Boxster. Very happy gentleman left my house with a big smile ? GTP911, bear924, MARTY and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OZ930 Posted 28May, 2018 Report Share Posted 28May, 2018 After thinking I had more battery issues and changing batteries (I have a spare) I remembered the burglar alarm procedure. DOH !! Finally took the 930 out and every cyclist and horse float was out too. So it was an 80 kph cruise around back roads. Good to get her out again though.

Andy73 Posted 30May, 2018 Report Share Posted 30May, 2018 Managed to do a few hours of work at home this morning and miss the traffic so decided to drive the 964 to work. What a great way to start the day! Good, clean run and a few moments where i was able to open it up a little. Third gear on one of the Monash on ramps may or may not have had me on the brakes as I entered the 100kph zone of the freeway...

Thanks Lee, the little old hairdressers specials have now grown into barbers cars! and just ordered the look a like carbon fibre sports seats and red harnesses.
