Tomorrow I�m with a small group who rented out the track so we pretty much have open track with limited rules and I can run with my top down.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Getting ready for a track day on Friday. Just replaced the Alternator and RMS. After the wax has cured will suit her up in Speed Lingerie. Should be a good time
.
Looks great, but I have 2 questions...
1. Why do all the washing and waxing before tracking ? Doesn't it just get dirty really fast ?
2. Do you really track a convertible ?? I always thought they weren't stiff enough.
Thanks! I do it for two reasons it protects it and makes it much easier to clean. Yes I have tracked this car many times. I believe because it is a Porsche it is much more rigid than your average convertible. I have also modified the suspension to reduce body roll and enhance grip. While it might not be as well suited as a non-Cabrio 911 its pretty quick and a ton of fun. Nothing like the sound with the top down hammering it down the straight at Roebling at 140.
Looks fantastic! I even really like the headlight covers! (Which is rare for me)
i am going to embark on the all day detail tomorrow for Rennsport Reunion.
It it is a proven fact that when your car looks better, it goes faster! Drag coefficient aside, a shiny car is more noticeable in someone�s mirror! 🤷🏼
Also, track the snoz outta that convertible, it�s still a Porsche!
Thanks. My regimen is as follows:
Wash -
Clay -
Polish w/ Megs Ultimate Compound -
Polish w/ Megs Mirror Glaze #7 -
Layer Griots BOS Wax -
Layer 1 (cure for 1 hour and do not remove)
Layer 2 (cure over night and do not remove)
Layer 3 (next morning cure for 2 hours) -
Buff clean using Griots spray wax to aid in removing the BOS wax.
i'm not usually a headlight cover fan but yours have me thinking. that is an awesome wax regimen.
what safety precautions are required on track with a cab? top down? I thought at minimum that the top had to be up..but I really am guessing to be honest. I may see you at Roebling some time, I'm just up the road in Myrtle Beach
Typically you do have to run with the top up. Tomorrow I�m with a small group who rented out the track so we pretty much have open track with limited rules and I can run with my top down. Requirements really depend on the group your runnning with. The cabs have pop up roll bars so they pass the PCA safety requirements. I also have a fire extinguisher mounted under the passenger�s seat as a precaution.
I hope you guys didn�t get damage from Florence!
I haven't washed my Porsche in more than a month. I've even driven it in the rain, taken multiple short trips, and parked it on uneven payment. I guess that's enough evidence to get me kicked out of the Porsche club.
You can be forgiven for all else....but parking on uneven pavement? Boy oh boy...better get out your rosary for parking on an incline or such!

Nice job....like others have said, the headlight covers are really growing on me as well....THe whole car looks stunning.
...on to rennsport tomorrow as well.
Must be nice living in a State that doesn't require front license plates! Love the Germany style plates.
Also, great waxing regimen! I might try that...
What???? We need a front license plate? god to know.
Here are the DEPO smoked LEDs....love the way it modernized the car. Some won't like it...but my whole car is pretty much 997 underneath.
