amazing the amount of detail the guy goes into. i started following DP1 when it was still in design stage. i just though he was loaded but it looks like he has a consulting company. 1972 998 TURBO SLEEPER |

May look good in the back but good luck putting even a fraction of that 1000bhp to the ground through anything less then 20 inch wide wheels. On 19th Feb, 2011 Miniwilliams said:
