What did you do to your E9 today?

Your Boxster looks sharp!

It's a good 10 footer, but has paint issues. The PO let his dogs jump up on it and so it has scratches in the paint which was applied by the owner before over the original black. Basically, it's a rescued car. It needed a lot of TLC for deferred items, trans mount, oil leak from engine & trans, fuel pump failed after getting it home, back window was missing, mirrors were broken. I did the IMS bearing repair while I had the trans out. Just normal Boxster stuff, but a lot at once. Drives nice now and once I polish the paint and headlights, it will look even better.
 
Drove the hell out of Athena today on the BMW CCA Tour around the back roads of PA. Drove my favorite road PA 528 from Prospect to Cranberry. Was able to get airborne on the Franklin Road section, though not as high as Hans Stuck on the 'Ring. Had a great time, spent most of the trip in 3rd at 3500rpm.

Went out for a little carb tuning but several rogue thunderstorms blew up around the city so to avoid them and stay dry I took an impromptu trip up river towards the plantations to scout a route for Oktoberfest (I hope you all are attending!). Rest stop:

That could be really fun Scott, I've only done one TSD at the chapter level 25 years ago.
 
Not sure why, anyone else can't see the pic of my car on the dirt road?
Steve, it was there earlier; that's how I knew I loved your driving lights. Did you pay your internet provider bill this month? Did a sinkhole swallow it? Did some sweet little Alfa convince it to run away?

Taking a break after chasing after Forest Gump I presume...

Agreed on the loveliness! Post more front end pics and less ugly floor panels!
