Cool Update the list

You can update the list for me, I don't know if I will have my car fixed in time for the mile, and my 996TT is not stock. It has either the RUF Rturbo 520 PS or the RUF Rturbo 550 PS conversion, they will have to contact Germany to check records. Either way, if I can get the money together to get it fixed, I will have one hell of a car on my hands.

Thanks to everyone who has supported and helped me. RUF is going to try and figure out a way to fix the exhaust for me after all. I will keep everyone updated on what it going on....

I am in a similar situation as prche951, I had some extensive work done with turbos, rebuilt custom tranny, new lightweight flywheel and clutch and a few others mods. I was supposed to get the car back this weekend (been saying this for 5 weeks) but ran into a coolant hose leak that we are investigating. Should be just a hose swap but want to make sure there aren't any other contributing factors.

That being said, I still have quite a bit of break in and tuning to do, October is coming up very quickly. I will definitely commit to being a spectator, already have the hotel lined up, but need to play it by ear if the car will actually be ready.

Definitely looking forward to putting a face and personality to the the user names and seeing the big dogs run.
