New Boxster S owner from Calgary
 

My other car, a TR6, is for now sale. Quite a bit of difference from British to German....it definitely puts a smile on your face...http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1430409556.jpg

Congrats! Welcome to the board.

Looks nice Happy Boxstering

Great looking car!

Did it have the clear side markers when you got it or did you add them? I have an 03' S as well in Arctic Silver and I am considering the clear markers since I think they look better especially on a grey or silver car.

time to put it to the test! bring it up to Edmonton for the 29-may track junkies event:

Castrol is at the airport, so halfway to Calgary already. we need more boxsters there. mebbe paul can come in from Winnipeg too ...

Great looking car whitfield...congrats!

Thanks for the heads-up Radium, should have mine out of storage soon. Maybe I'll take a run up and check it out.
:cheers:

Hmmm, that's a bit of a haul for a day of tracking but I'll bet that will be fun.

As an aside, I lived in Edmonton back in the '80's, you know, when they had a pro hockey team. Anyway I owned a 1978 FIAT X 1/9, a slow-as-molasses but slot-car-handling mid-engine targa-topped fun mobile. I joined the Edmonton Sports Car Club and despite owning a FIAT they let me stay. We used to do track days at the old Edmonton Speedway (is it even there anymore?) They were a real hoot! All hell bent for leather and me holding everybody up on the drag strip front straight. The decreasing radius corkscrew in the back was the only place my X 1/9 could out do just about anyone.

Fun times.

Edmonton Speedway is gone, and Race City in Calgary recently closed. For the past few years we had to get our kicks at a cart track in Edmonton called Stratotech that was actually a whole lot of fun (you learn how to turn on a track like that). Castrol Raceway is brand new (curbing just went in this spring. thank god) and is a fun, technical track. worth the trip i'd say, especially if you make a long weekend out of it and throw in a trip to lake louise and a night at the chateau.

That is a great looking car!

Now, let's see a few pic's of that TR-6 that you have for sale - I had a '71 TR-6 back in the mid-80's. Still one of the best looking cars around IMHO.

Welcome to the board!

Yes, please, pictures of the TR6

Great looking car Whitfield, that colour just does not get old does it.

Ditto to all above and, yes please, TR6 pics. Wonder if anyone has retro-moded a TR6 to bring some modern engineering to that classic style?

Nice car, but why is the ground all shiny around it?

Welcome, did I hear you say going from Lucas to Bosh
