As an E30 325i driver, I can hardly wait to start beating up on 944's!  _________________ Mark Barr

Trash talking? I really cant be so bold as to think I can take my little old M3 up against the racing heritage of Porsches. Do I dare challenge the 944 turbos? Do I have a chance? Will I, like PTG before me, quit the series for fear of the P cars? Perhaps my only chance is unlimited mods and less weight... Any takers?

Now, now, mind your manners... sling an arrow or two the way of the '44's, but stay kind to your slim-fendered friends, or I shall unleash the Unruly Hordes of the Ravenous 924 Defenders of Freedom (nice pun!) to deal you swift injustice, like a Gold-Chain-Wearing Boxster driver on the 356 faithful...

I'm happy to report the 944 is ready to race in GTS2. My son drove it at Waterford Hills Driver's School this past weekend and everything went flawless. The new engine sounds really strong and I'm hoping for an improvement on my 1:09.00 of last year at the 944Cup race!!
This weekend brings my first race of the year at Waterford Hills and hopefully it will help clear all the winter cobwebs from the grey matter.
Sounds like I could use a little more company protecting Porsche's Honor!! _________________ Denny Voss

Good to be back and gettin' ready for the race season. New Zealand was an incredible place and we had an amazing time. Somehow I found myself bungee jumping with my son -- 340 ft into a river gorge -- but it was quite a rush!!
Glad to hear you're ready to do battle at the Beav!!! _________________ Denny Voss

Tally of the Beaver:
Wins BMW 3 Porsche 3
Saturday's overall GTS winner-BMW
Sundays's overall GTS winner-BMW
We kept our bolt buckets in order this time!
Oh yeah, forgot one other important category:
Mothers at the track on Mother's Day BMW 1 Porsche 0
All trash talking aside, the weekend was great. I enjoyed seeing the GTS crowd and meeting some of you for the first time. And the biggest worry the GTS2 Bimmers have to be concerned about is if Denny decides to let his son race the 944! He's going to be a good one. _________________ Mark Barr
