Corvettes in a Porsche club? :)

[ninjabones]

I got to drive a student's Corvette at Lightning a few weeks ago for the first time. The thing was f'ing amazing. That's a lot-o-car for the money.  However, I still personally feel that certain p-cars represent overall better value based on longevity and reliability.

As an example, I've done over 20 races in my 16-year-old 993, and up until this weekend did not have a single DNF. Broke a half-shaft at VIR (which is essentially a consumable item... and actually was the original one from 1995). 

I don't want to jinx myselft, but I've been beating on Precious for 3 seasons (20+ track days per year) and I've missed a total of one run session (busted a shift fork at Summit) and one race (this past weekend) due to mechanical issues.  Now, driver mistakes (contact with inanimate objects) did cause a few other missed sessions, but we won't go there (and I certainly can't blame porsche for that)
