Ramen is good. All the cool kids eat it. Crack an egg in it...call it breakfast. 1/2 slice of cheese? DINNER! No need for lunch, guys like us skip that to maintain our chiseled physique.

The Doctor told me to lose a few pounds, so I can spend the whole grocery budget on these beauties. You know... If I walked to work, it would help with the weight too, and I do drive a bit of a gas guzzler. :D
Dave, I have a four lane track. What other Carreras would run well against these? They don't have to be prototypically perfect, but would be helpful. I am getting a pair of Cheetahs. Would they run pretty closely? How about the Porsche 904s? (I'm looking for an excuse to get a couple of those too!) Otherwise, would the Cobras be in the ballpark? I am looking to get a decently priced set of four cars to have for informal racing around. I was originally thinking of two Cheetahs and two Cobras, but since I am buying a pair of 917s, that might be a starting point for a match. You can never have too many house cars, right? (Cathie actually wants two Monzas and two Beetles, just because they look so cool, and she wants to repaint them.) I am guessing that the Beetles are a bit faster than the Monzas, but I will find out when the next Beetle hits the shelves in a few Months. I can always adjust the faster cars into the slower lanes to even things up a bit. I just need them fairly close. Am I right in thinking that the 904s would be pretty close to the 917s?

I'm not sure about running these with older GT cars. I'd say the Can Am cars would be a better fit for competition for them. i haven't run these yet i've just been taking photos of them and showing them recently to dealers and at the GearZ show.
