Hot Rod VW General Stories Thread

I went out of town today to look at some schooling, and on the way home, got to play a little bit with a bright blue Porsche Cayman on a smaller state highway. While my little 1914 wasn't able to outright embarrass him, the huge smile and the thumbs up meant he was certainly impressed and probably a little shocked. At the next light, he asked me what size my engine was, and that's all I was able to get out and then the light turned green and we were off again. We kept next to each other for a mile or so through some traffic and once it opened up, the Porsche driver poured on the coals and tried to disappear. I had a slight delay, then dropped into third and caught him not long after seeing the scary side of the speedometer in fourth, then we hung around 80 for a little ways. Huge grins all the way around, he turned off not long after that and as I passed, I rolled my window down and threw a jaunty wave. With the current population explosion in my area, moments like that are all too rare, and definitely treasured. Open roads, singing carbs, and a willing participant in a much fancier car are, to me, what the Cal-Look is all about and are a big part of the reason I keep coming back to this forum. Thanks all for the inspiration in setting up my car how it is, and the advice along the way! I'd love to hear some more stories from the rest of you guys!
