Oh, The Irony: Bitten by T9
So...Friday I found out that my essay for the "Porsche Passion" contest was selected as a finalist. Hooray, vote for me!porsche.promo.eprize.com/passion/
Then Sunday I proceeded to go off in T9 at Summit Point. Nut Behind the Wheel and Instructor are OK....car....not so much. Ask Antonio for details at the DE this weekend. On the plus side, I did get to ride home in that sweet "Carrera 2" of his. Have fun at the DE this weekend, wish I could be there.

Sorry to hear that. Not that it helps much but you are not alone in the T9 club.

Sorry to hear
hopefully it can be made as good as new (or close). T9 has not been an issue for me, but I got bit pretty good by T10 2 years ago...

Wow, there are 4 local finalists out of 20 total: In addition to Donald, Michael from Rockville, Thomas in McLean, and Marc in Potomac. Are any of the 3 others on Dorkiphus?
Oh, and I voted for Donald's, because I liked it best.

Bummer.. I've been an instructor spinning through T9 before so you aren't the first.

Damn. That sucks. Turn 9 has eaten more cars than any other since I have been driving Summit.
Don't tell your insurance company it happened in turn 9.
