Welcome to the Ice Pedal Club (Ice Pedal thread link). Sorry to hear you've joined. Intersport was checking out my ice pedal issues a few weeks ago. Robert M (PCA Potomac Instructor) was having the same issues with his Koni challenge car this year. He disabled the ABS. I'm in the process of checking with Napleton Porsche about the issue. Body Motion has a proprietary fix that they do for Caymans. Probably applies to Gen I 997s also.

Thanks for the detailed write-up and contrats on the great finish.

John
