Where did you drive your Porsche today?

Up through Warburton, Donna Buang etc yesterday. Just fantastic roads and hardly any traffic even in the middle of the day. So great to see a few fellow Porsches out enjoying the twisty stuff at the same time.

Got invited along to Sandown to spectate at Monards Track Day for special customers of Monards Melbourne to promote the Hublot brand. A fantastic turn out and well run event. I Got to have a couple of laps as a passenger in this beast driven by an Instructor from Evolve GT who ran the event. The car is owned by Bernard who organised the day (his black Ferrari 488 was also there) who is a true gentleman and genuine nice guy! The laps were beyond belief but the car just took it in its stride, the grip through corners amazing - especially on street tyres, as well as the straight line punch!!!

There were also a few other P cars there, a Boxster S, GT4, GT3's as well as Ferraris, Lambos etc plus this gem!

No your not wrong Mate... it was like a red brown algae on the surface and considering this is Sydney ,s primary water supply it is not a good look :D the information boards in the bottom right of the image said the water is drawn at depth on the main dam wall that starts at that blue gantry and heads to the opposite bank  so I doubt you get any of that red crap coming into the water supply intakes ,,,,the algae is on the spill gate side and from the look of it there was a small stream of water going down the spill way perhaps they are trying to flush that crap downstream :D but as a tourist coming to the information center and seeing that crap as you stand at the dam look out you have to wonder what it is and were it comes from  ;)

Your definitely loving that car......you will need another log book soon.......

ah yeah, you could be right there. Still I managed to drive only one day this week (wasn't easy).

Still, I didn't buy it just to look at it (although the Mrs has found me on numerous evenings, standing in the garage, ogling). I'm easing off on the midweek, night time drives for sure though. Worst case, I'll be fronting up at Vicroads at some stage to cough up for a full rego.

I went for a quick drive to the servo late last night. Streets were empty and wet. Tested both left and right side Opposite Locks, they're working perfectly.

Adrenaline Distribution System was also tested and is working fine.

Thanks for the laugh @grantmr Had quite the chuckle reading that.

Went for an early morning run with some 356 Register people this morning. Started at PCA and ended up some time later at Beechworth Bakery in Healsville for a late breakfast.

Got home by lunch time so took the silver one out to make it an all Porsche day.

Saw some dirt roads in at as well so needed a wash on return.
