If you remember a few months back,<br />

I was trying to catch up to another<br />

Porsche in traffic in the Flower Mound<br />

area. As it turns out, the other day I was<br />

sitting at a traffic light and noticed that<br />

same car in my rear view mirror. As the<br />

light turned green, I was still on the phone<br />

and unfortunately he was able to sprint<br />

around me while I was hanging up. Upon catching him at<br />

the next light, I gave him the thumbs up as he looked back at<br />

me with his head out the window. Shouting over the noise,<br />

I heard something about his 500+ horse power... Even with<br />

my extra 90 HP in my 2002 Boxster S, there was no way to<br />

compete with the brute power he was putting down. Who<br />

ever is the owner of this Seal Grey 996 TT, and if you are<br />

a member and reading this, drop me a line, maybe we can<br />

start a breakfast group in our area of town or just hook up<br />

for a drive. There’s always room on the calendar to meet<br />

other enthusiasts living close by.<br />

Make a point to meet someone new this month at one of our<br />

events. If you want something different, come up with an<br />

idea and we can add it to our calendar.<br />

It’s not just the cars, it’s the people...<br />
