Now there's a package I can fully support.  I'll probably stop by to check it out, though unsure if "normal" people can get close.

Zoom, any info?

I zipped down there to check it out - googlies what a fine-looking machine.  It's got a "electric flywheel accumulator" where a passenger seat would go.  I think they used to call that the Flux Capacitor.

It's one-off looking parts reminded me of the DR16's.  DR16 nicer bodywork though.  This thing was all business.

Wow that's great stuff Z - I love Porsches.  I was talking to the Porsche rep at the thing, and told him I had the bottom of the line for 1988.  He just kinda looked at me like "wtf, go away poor person."

[laugh]  I was chatting with a chick there too, and she noticed the 1098.  I says "well, I could probably beat that GT3 till around 190, then I'd get destroyed."  Ha.  Best pickup line ever, not.

With a line like that, you would've had better luck picking up the tranny hookers that used to hang in my neighborhood! ;D [laugh] ;D
