What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

[JayG]

did a nice drive from San Diego to Ojai, about 400 miles round trip. Most of it top down
Some nice twisty back roads as well
to bad I had to drive through LA, too much traffic and crappy drivers. Other than that, a great drive

It finally snowed here. Got to go out and check out how well the new Dunlop Winter Maxx tires work. They did pretty good, weaved back and forth, stayed on track, hit the brakes hard stopped great. Accelerating from a stop still took some finesse on the throttle, once moving I could get a little into the throttle, but not much or the tires would break lose. Overall pretty happy with how competent I felt behind the wheel with them.

I drove the Jägermobile to Pismo Beach and spent the morning with some of my PCA California Central Coast Region club members, talked about Porsches, drank coffee, and ate breakfast.










Then I replaced the battery in the Jägermobile… Again. It would be nice if batteries lasted more than 7 years and 9 months.

Then I installed a California Central Coast Region PCA badge on the Jägermobile. I decided to put it next to my PCA badge on the driver’s side wind screen… What do you think?

I drove mine to buy Lag Bolts at Lowe's so I can add casters to my new work shop bench

Looks good jäger! I had some badges made up for our region awhile back!

[Pdwight]

Just kidding, those look great, are they stickers or actual enameled metal ?

Took my younger daughter for a ride finally! Here is the story on that.. about two weeks ago, my older daughter (age 6) was sick and had to stay home with me. Well I took her to the dr in my "race car" (what my kids call it). Well, ever since then, my younger daughter (age 5) has asked me about 4,000 times to take her for a ride. And it had finally warmed up enough to get it out for a bit. So I drove her around for a few miles and we stopped to get her some icecream. Well, when we got back she told her sister that we went "like 200" lol!! I think I might of got to 41mph lol. But she is happy, but my older daughter wants to go "200" now. I just can't win lol.

Love it! I got called out by my cousin's son recently - "We went 85, I saw it right there on the speedometer."

My day with the Box was a grueling 2 hours in traffic from North Dallas to SW Arlington - but it was oh so sweet because I had just finished the MCAT.

Drove it. Been -25 C for a few days now. Starts right away. No farts or coughs.Blast to drive in the winter. Heater works great nice and warm with the hardtop. One downside is the wipers and the washer fluid are cold. No engine heat like most NA cars.Not the best to clean the windshield. Upside sure is fun in a parking lot.

Last night I went to go for a drive, I checked my brake lights against the garage door and as I depressed the pedal further down my brake light went out. I had a little wtf moment. I did a little search and found out it was the break pedal switch


I wiggled it a bit and presto! It works again. It was probably getting stuck on a wire

Received a 997 shifter in the mail today. Can't wait to take it out of storage and do this project in... 3 months...

Replaced the windshield... Again. It would be nice if a windshield lasted more than 160,000 miles.
