Absolutely Dave... really cool to see you picked up the C4S. We're doing some filming of our option today I hope so more on that... What's your Email again? I'll send you some pix with the P40s...

Hey 911 S... Really soon I hope. We're taking our sweet time since we've tried out a whole bunch of different approaches and then seeing as ours is PDK we can also get a worst-case scenario test bed for things like resonance....

Hmmm I would have said Malachite at least from the pictures but in person, I'm really digging the racing green. It's a close call but I'd say the racing...

One thing that I'm having trouble with even saying but I'm going to anyways is that I'm really surprised at how well this car now handles _with_ TechArt springs. For anyone that knows me, this might well come as a bit of a shock (no pun intended) because in general we will not install H&R spring kits on any 996, Cayman or 997 based car. It's coil overs or else type of thing... But whatever changes were made to the stock shocks they seem to be very compliant and a great match for the TechArt springs on these .2 cars. It seems like we really do have another less expensive option that works well on .2 997. I'm still scratching my head!
