New for 2006/2007: It's been 6 or 7 years since any PPBB shirt was
produced, all 144 of them. That's a lot of procrastination on my part, and
a lot of prodding to endure from the masses... so, we finally found a fairly
easy way to do it, i.e. I don't have do all the work. Isn't the internet wonderful?
:-)
There is currently a very small product line available, in beta development. With time, the products will expand or contract, ebb and flow, as with PPBB. Or, this could be the end of it... who knows? Congratulations to Loren Spiegel, winner of the "Artistic Request" post of 1/29/05. His graphic artistry will be featured on select PPBB stuff for 2006-2007... And, another Jahre shirt, the Last Jahre, 10? This could be the one for the ages :-) .... |

| Porsche Boxster Story: The Entire Development History
by Paul Frere (Author)
List Price: $37.22 |
 The Boxster, launched in 1996, has been a huge success for Porsche. With sales having improved steadily to reach

He tells the full story of this flagship two-seater, which, despite considerable performance, is remarkably practical for everyday road use.

| The
Last Open Road by Burt Levy
List Price: $25.00 |
 This
one comes recommended by Boxster Boarder Dennis in SE PA and others. Dennis
writes: "This book is outstanding. A moldy fig's delight of a book if ever
there was one. I can't believe there has not been more discussion of this
book on this board. I highly recommend it. It will take you back to who you
were when it all started. Reminds me a little of the style of "The Cathedral
and The Bazaar" if you have read that. Well, sort of anyway. A total break
with cookie cutter writing as it is taught. It is real for me."

| Sports
Car and Competition Driving by Paul Frere
List Price: $17.95 |
This one comes recommended by Boxster Boarder Martin and
others. Martin writes "I bought a copy of 'Sports Car and Competition
Driving' by Paul Frere after spending 2 hours in the bookstore reading it
cover to cover. IMHO this is a much better book than the one by Vic Elford
that has been discussed on this board in the past. The text covers all of
the standard topics like cornering, braking, effects of suspension and alignment
modifications, shifting strategy and techniques, tire and wheel choice, racing
strategy, and so forth. What I like about this volume is that Frere is both
a racer and a trained engineer, so he gives you the theory and mathematics
and then translates it into practical advice. There is a lot of meat in this
book."
Paperback - 156 pages (October 1992) |
