Very few bugs actually. Cars which sit in garages always immaculately clean are a waste.

That drive is what it is all about. I know tracking is wonderful, but the best time I have had with my Porsche is driving along twisty back roads with the wife heading to a B&B in the Smokey's. Maybe next time I should take a few pics like you did adias. You have inspired me.
