Excellence Shootout article is a HUGE POS
First off. let me start by congragulation ALL of the participants of the 996tt shoot-out.
My hat goes off to each and everyone of you for all the hard work and $$$ it takes to put one of these cars together.
Now to the good stuff!!!
what a peice of **** article!!! did anyone notice anything missing from the article????? How about there isn't a stich of info written about the MODS on any of the cars!!!!!!!!

Haven't seen my Excellence yet. BUT, if that is the case I have to say I am not surprises given the **** style lid on information after the event.
I have received Excellence for many years but have to say that the informational content is mainly in the ads.
When there are new Porsches it is almost a joke to read speculations about what the new car's specs will AFTER Porsche formally introduced it. This is what happend with the 997.

We were all asked for a list of all mods and costs involved. I just received my issue and noticed that as well. Hmmm..

The mag is 4 pounds to buy here in the UK (small circulation hence high unit cost), which right now is about $8 per issue. So I guess that $96 (less discount) is for the mag, rest for postage across the Atlantic............
I get every issue and also Porsche and 911 World, the other UK Porsche mag. http://www.ewacars.com/mghpw.html http://www.chpltd.com/911_porsche_wo...scription.html

As for why Excellence wouldn't include the mod information...well that's just dumb.

hard to beat, though
It was/is a great article. There were a number of suggestions as to what to include in the article, and I'm sure Pete Stout took them all into consideration. Judging by what was included in the article, it must have been tough to decide what must be left out.
However, all involved did a hell of a job, and Pete may have left himself enough material, for a part 2.
To address the "****" like comment made in reference to the secrecy behind the event, I think it innapropriate to have made this comment
I feel the reason behind keeping quiet was just, and done to protect the investment of those who made them. It is well within their rights, and outweigh the perceived rights of your on demand world.
If you really want to know what was done to the cars, call and ask the tuners, I for one would love to tell you what I did to our car, FVD #16.
Thats my story, and I'm sticking to it.
