Lovely piccy of your car in your profile. Presumably the suspension has been fettled a little to get that lovely squat look?

I have a supersport, but I believe it needs lowering to finish the look off....

Thanks. Does look very low slung in the rear... Maybe your turbo motor weighs a little more than my 3.2 anyway.

Looks cracking either way

why is your oil level gauge reading nearly full with the motor running at 7000rpm? It should read 'empty' atthat speed. Unless that's not the oil level gauge which is where my 993turbo one is located?

Or is the oil level gauge the one on the very far left that looks like it's in the red zone (as it should be)?

Sorry, my bad! That's the oil pressure.....I haven't seen my car for 3 weeks

Wally,

After posting that photo of your speedo you may want to cover up the number plate in your profile pic! (unless of course it was taken in some foreign or private land)

Good to see some familiar faces on here.

Regards

"Druck Press" is oil pressure, at the top where it should be, I think the oil guage is next to the drivers thumb, reading empty (as it should at revs like you say).

The fuel gauge is out of sight (and presumably sinking )

Layout seems similar to the 930...

Its not the top end speed that impresses me its the fact that you must have took hand of wheel to take photo and its lashing down with rain.

I'm not sure it's rain. Normally flies just hit the windscreen. Once you start getting quick, they sort of pass through the glass. Theres a good reason not to travel at that speed........ It takes ages to get the flies off afterwards! hehe
