Default Suspension Repair Supervision Needed...

If anyone here works at HBL ( ), you may want to take a look in the Porsche garage. You may see a familiar blue Boxster (with hardtop) in there -- one that you helped diagnose as having not having a wheel bearing problem a few months ago.

And you may notice the right rear suspension is toast, thanks to an arm-wrestling match between the wheel and a curb... Wanna guess who won?

Yes, that's right -- Taz's brother had an agricultural excursion yesterday. He was turning left onto a main road, hit some marbles, started losing the back end, overcorrected, hit the curb, yada, yada, yada.

And he still does not see the value in joining PCA Potomac and going to a HPDC... He told Taz "...there was no time to react..." I replied "if he had attended a HPDC and done a DE or two, he would have been quicker in his reactions and had some time to take corrective action." There's a great view from up here on this high horse 8)

Yea, but unless you’re the lead horse the view never changes :P
