Clearly, he has been sitting overweight hoochies on that fender.

LOL on the Hoochies. How is it such a "small" dent when done that way?

Ok, I am taking pictures next Tuesday. I am testing my Cup Car and he is running with me. Hallet in OK near Tulsa.

I've seen the front suspension mounting points start to compress the surrounding sheet metal on a cayman that does heavy track duty. Solid mounting points though.

My guess is that it is caused by hitting the rumble strips over and over again.

the tires are creating a negative pressure causing the fender to collapse.... yeah, that's it!

I looked at the car. Hard. I can't see how it's happening, if it's happening. Both fender dents are in the exact spots. The owner is a good guy and is positive the car is causing this, so I believe him.

On another note, there were 2 Cayman R's at the track that day, and both of them had tranny overheating issues.

But did they have the 'dimples' in the fenders?
