Sorry to hear your news but it sounds like you are on the mend. Pray for an Indian Summer and maybe get a couple of drives in before the snow flys.

Yes, this! :cheers:

Same here! Best wishes, Ted

Best of luck for a full and speedy recovery! Not the same, but maybe someone can take you for a ride in your car while the weather is cooperating.

found a great new route in So Cal. Well new to me at least. From the valley go to Little Tujunga Canyon. As a side note Car and Driver wrote about part of this in the June issue. Basically, take Little Tujunga all the way into Santa Clarita. It turns into Sand Canyon and hits the 14. There is a In n Out at the end of Sand Canyon and if you time it right you can get lunch. After lunch go past the 14 and make a right on Soledad Canyon Rd. Take this to Sierra Hwy and continue to Palmdale. About a mile or so make a right on Angeles Forrest Hwy. You then take this to Big Tujunga Canyon Rd to the end. Took this today on a whim. I was just going to go back after I went to In n Out, but for some reason there was a bit of road work going on so I thought about going all the way to Angeles Forrest and I am glad I did. This was a great route. You also have 2 other options on Angeles Forrest, you could make a right on Upper Big Tujunga which leads to Angeles Crest, or stay on Angeles Forrest to Angeles Crest. Both of these are good options if you are looking to make it a longer drive. Today was a great day for a great drive.

We are truly blessed in southern California with great roads and weather. I am less than ten minutes from a trip up Mt. Baldy, with the option of Glendora Ridge for a bit longer route.

I overfilled on my last(and first for me) oil change on the 99. Got it back up on the lift, dumped out what was in the filter canister, and now it's perfect lol! Unfortunately didn't have time to swap O2 sensors to see if codes followed but maybe next weekend.

got the Backyard Buddy put together last Saturday
 

finally can get it done

I sold my 2001 S for a '03 M3 Cabriolet. The 986 was very clean and low mileage but I needed the back seats and this was the best compromise. Funny but they all have their issues that need sorting and monitoring so I move from IMS Anxiety to other stuff anxiety :D
So far so good - the drive is not as refined as the Porsche but I do prefer the seating comfort and the loss of that ridiculously large steering wheel. I prefer the sight lines too. I'll miss the 986 but maybe some day I'll venture back. Cheers!

I went with a Max Jax in my garage. A lift helps so much. Especially if you have injuries or are in any way mobility limited.

I needed the storage space, as well as getting under the car to work.

lift in use

Sorry for my late response, here’s the measurements I took for my speedster hump covers and a pic of the cover (same cover for both sides on my set). covers are a loose fit, drawing not to scale.

Fred - that's awesome! I was thinking this past weekend that I needed covers for several sets of my humps - you just saved me a bunch time, energy and brain cells. I'll get my upholstery guy on this. Thanks! :cheers:

Thank you very much, I have a set on order right now.
It's very difficult to swallow the price for a set of OEM ones but I may
choose that route. Do they have some padding in there?
Do you still have the part number?

Are you happy with the purchase?

Today I was at New Jersey Motorsports Park's Lightning track for the first day of a 2 day HPDE. Had a great day, no AOS smoke bomb issues like I had at Watkins Glen in August. Tomorrow looks like rain but fingers crossed I'll get a couple of sessions in.

I replaced the trailing arms today and got rid of my suspension clunk.

Swapped in a new top and managed to lose tack of one of the push arms once and poked a whole in the foam liner.

Anybody know what the part numbers are or what it's actually called ?

I may have an extra one on the shelf, let me know which side if you want me to check.
New ones are probably pretty inexpensive. Here's the part number and name:

Thank you.

And well both really.
Passenger side was already compromised by previous owner.
So of course I had to molest the drivers side :)
