PCA Tour yesterday
 

Sometimes we do driving tours on great Porsche roads, sometimes historic car collections like Leno or Nethercut. Yesterday we took a technology tour of Space X in Hawthorne where they make rockets named Merlin and Falcon 9. Our tour guide for the day was Co-founder, Vice President of Propulsion, GT3RS owner, and PCA-GPX member Tom Mueller. Wow! That was the coolest thing I have done all year.

Pretty cool. Would love to go see the Space X facility!

Space-X is awesome and Tom is a great guy, know him well.

The next time you see him, ask him about this:

Ha! Looks like his Laguna Seca exhaust mod to meet sound requirements. A rocket propulsion artifact?
