As the 996 GT3 threads arent serious like other GT3 threads....,
is it true Slippy, that the only time you and 911R are seen together in is when one looks in the mirror?

I knew I wasn't the only one that was thinking this

[lemmingjames]

Have you also noticed that they both seem to buy the same cars as each other!?!?

However, 'apparently' David knows how to drive (Just how does one enter into a corner?) whereas Slippy keeps crashing his?

Though they do say that if your not crashing your not learning (well in Skiing they do)....

I've had this lot :

Mk1 Escort Mexico (1st car)
Chevette HS
Opel Ascona 400
E30 M3 Evo 2
Sapphire Cosworth 2WD
" " 4WD
VR6 Golf Highline
E36 M3 Saloon
Impreza 22B One of 16 UK cars
964 RS Midnight Blue
964 RS Guards Red
993 RS Guards Red
Impreza P1
Mk1 996 GT3 Zanzibar
964 RS Rubystone
996 GT2 Midnight Blue
Gen 1997 GT3 Meteor Grey
Subaru Impreza WRC car (the 2nd WRC car Prodrive built)
Mk1 996 GT3 Zanzibar (I bought it back ! !)
M3 CSL
996 GT2 Basalt Black (Ohlins, remap, Ruf exhaust)
996 GT3 RS White with Red
Gen 1 997 GT3 Slate Grey
1M Coupe Orange
1M Coupe White AP's, Sparco race seats install, decat, custom geo set up.
M6 V10
964 RS Ferrari Yellow
Mk1 996 GT3 Black with Ohlins, Clubsport cage, Manthey K400 etc
Mk 1 996 GT3 Clubsport Guards red.
Cayman R Guards Red.
And my current toy steer.
Plus a load of very mundane stuff...

Whereas everyone knows 911R has owned pretty much every car manufactured since 1995......

And on that basis I hardly think us both owning a CSL and a Cayman R qualifies as us owning the same cars.

Some good cars Slippy. I’ve had a few of those too. If you’ve driven them hard then even better.

Most were owned when they were "cheap" and unloved/unappreciated (964 RS : £24K, 993 RS : £34k, 996 GT2 : £37k etc etc) and all of them were driven accordingly ....

Nice work My 964rs and 993rs were driven similarly.
