Hello all. Just a brief introduction as I just joined the site.

I'm a 45 yr. PCA member and have owned 9 911's during my Porsche ownership history. Currently have only one, a '97 993 C2S, black w/ black interior, that I've owned since 1999. I was an SCCA racer (now retired from racing) for 20 yrs. racing in Formula Ford, Continental, and Atlantic. After retiring from racing, I DE'd a 996 for a few years. A few other "toys" in the stable too.

Looking forward to being on a site where the content is focused and on-topic relating to Porsches.

Cheers.
Dave

Excellent introduction - that's a fantastic and wonderful history with both Porsche and racing - very nice!

Dave, welcome from another SCCA/NASA retired racer, though I am still doing Time Trials, HPDEs and Autocrossing. You will enjoy this site and feel free to share your wealth of track experience for the Porsche owners who may be deciding to venture out to destroy a little rubber!
