yes, it was for sale for 8 months or so. I wanted a track car and the price was right..... Buying that car was one of the best and worst mistakes i have ever made.

I have had the car for 3 months, and it has never run right

Buying a track car is usually one of the best mistakes a guy can make.

Dude, you were or atleast you car was at FATT earlier this month right? I saw you or someone messing with it trying to fix something because it was running poorly. I hope it got straightened out. Welcome to the board.

Welcome, Ross. You'll find the board is loaded with people who like to work on their Porsches and know quite a bit about that due to lots of experience. I happen not to be one of them, but they're helping my confidence...
