Your best bet would be contacting https://www.pca.org to see when they have track days there..
I only run the canyons, it's something about seeing the same corners every few minutes that doesn't cut it for me...
thanks for the link man ....

so that wasn't you in your youtube video going up & down the same stretch of canyon then? wink

... trouble with street driving is other road users, trees, walls & jail !!

I'd be interested to see any 991 canyon driving videos like the RS211 ones?

Thanks, I'm not crazy about the stock wheels in black so I have a set of these coming finished off in Porsche white...
I think it will look a little sportier..
Doesn't the Turbo S have centrelocks?

Yes they are being made center lock..
Nice looking wheels - I'd just struggle with thrm looking different on each side of the car! (I.e, the 'blades' will point backwards on one side of the car and forwards on the other!

How come you didn't go with black again?

East of Ojai Ca. about an hour drive from LA..
Thanks. My last visit to LA was 2 years ago (must get back!) and I took my Boxster rental up the Angeles Crest Highway but the road was blocked off, just when it was starting to get interesting. I'll try up Ojai way next trip.

I thought about the rotational look but I only ever see the driver's side getting in and out and unless you are running circles around the car while it's parked you'll never know...

I hate black wheels, why design a nice looking wheel and make it invisible...

H&R springs are on and a Cobb tune and BBI exhaust due this week..
Yep, thought about black wheel option on my 991RS in September factory delivery., but rejected it.

Great roads you have there...have been there. Have a winter home in North Scottsdale AZ, so CA is not such a long drive.

I also have the 991 (although GT3) / 211 combo - what on earth have you done to the arse of your Lotus?

That is some 211 - what engine and rear subframe are you using?
