I used to read these all the time. My first sprint event was at Curborough as part of the ‘Top 50’ in CCC back in ‘92. Think I was the slowest there

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
Recent addition to my 'stable'. Bought unseen. Probably a little Marmite . . . a 1999 Unique Autocraft replica (with a Chevy - aka Bowtie cobra). Really well built and gorgeous to drive on a sunny day .... love it, although the 'is it real question, is getting a little tiresome'.

Looks gorgeous - just having sensible wheels and few period correct details makes all the differenceearly_911 wrote:Recent addition to my 'stable'. Bought unseen.

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
"Is it a Real One" is tiresome, but a compliment to the build too.
I thought it was real tbh.
Some at race meetings ask if my Lola is a kit-car.....and every van delivery driver asks the same.
