Day one down. Lots of brilliant roads with the highlight being the run up the hill from deliraine to Great Lakes. Car looks like it's been enjoying itself.

There must be next to zero suspension travel in these things

I have a theory that RWB cam up with those little flare spoilers after they burned holes in the top of the fiberglass flares...

Oh - and Ell Oh Ell at the wheelbearing loads from that offset.

[Uncle]

Wow that's shit.

Must handle like it's on rails.

Today was Tasmania hill climb day. Elephant, St Mary's, the one from Poatina up to Great Lakes, all awesome. The climb from St Helens up to Scottsdale is, I think, the best road in Australia. Most of it was wet today but that just sharpened the focus so you really had to make sure of what you were doing. After that it was a dry Sideling having a pretty fair swing at it. And by 'pretty fair' I mean swinging for the bleachers with the big bat. The real big bat. It was quote special. Tasmania, just smashing it atm.

And since it's a Porsche porn thread here's a dirty Porsche settling in for the night.

[Uncle]

Yeah there is some pretty awesome roads around that area hey. When I got my first 911 I spent a week in doing targa stages before coming home. Great way to get used to a new car.

I usually like cars with big, low offset wheels that are really low, but that is just fucking dumb.

Did Gordon dam and Huron valley on Wednesday , across the middle, arrowsmith and Reece dam Thursday. Plimsol, helyer (a few times, the traffic free dry run in the afternoon was quite something) and strahan up and down yesterday. About to head out for more west coast before putting it back on the ferry tonight.

And dirty Porsche pic for porn thread. I call it GT4's are for driving, not fucking investing.

[Uncle]

Nice shot.

Seinfeld Porsches hit bumpy road at auction
Robert Frank | @robtfrank
Jerry Seinfeld faced a tough crowd while putting up 18 of his prized cars for auction Friday, with his top-valued cars falling short of expectations.
The car-collecting comedian took to the stage to introduce the sale, held at the Gooding & Co. auction on Amelia Island, Fla. Seinfeld said he never bought cars for profit, but to enjoy and drive them. Now, he wanted other collectors to enjoy them.
"I wanted to be here with you all, who see these cars the way I do and enjoy this hobby the way I do," he said. "I wanted to see your face and feel your enthusiasm because that's why I do it. I never thought these cars were going to increase in value. I'm not a collector that gets cars to make money. I love the feeling of the car."
Some of the prices, however, seemed to exceed the enthusiasm of many of the bidders. The total haul for the auction was $22.2 Million, short of the $28 million to $32 million projected.
The star of the sale was a 1973 917/30 Porsche Can-Am Spyder that was estimated to sell for between $5 million and $7 million. But after a slow start, the bidding crept up to just $2.8 million, and was ultimately sold for $3 million.
According to auction experts, Seinfeld bought the car in 2012 for $4.4 million.
Despite some high profile disappointments, more than a half dozen of Seinfled's cars sold for above their high values, and seven cars set new price records for their models. Those included a 1974 911 Carrera 3.0 IROC RSR that sold for $2.3 million.
"Overall, this was a strong sale and Jerry was very happy with the result," said David Gooding, Gooding & Co.'s fonder and president.
The second-most-valuable lot was a 1955 550 Spyder that fetched $5.3 million, falling in the range of its $5 million to $6 million estimate. And a VW Beetle that was expected to sell for around $55,000 went for more than $120,000, setting a new all time record for a VW Beetle.
Yet a 1959 718 RSK Spyder, a car that's won several races and was featured in Seinfeld's web series, "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee," was expected to sell for roughly $4 million. The top bid, however, was $2.6 million. The final sale price, including auction fees, will still be well below estimates.
Seinfeld's VW camper, which was used for his family's lemonade stand in the Hamptons before it was shut down by police last year, sold for $99,000 — at the high end of the estimated range.
Seinfeld's sale comes as the collectible car market, especially for the Porsche brand, has taken a hit from stock-market volatility and slowing growth overseas.
The Hagerty Market Rating, a classic-car index from Hagerty insurance, posted its largest month-over-month drop in February since 2009.
