The Road To Luftgekühlt 6
通往Luftgekühlt的道路6

As I’m sure everyone expected, a few of us spent this past weekend at Luftgekühlt 6, indulging in nothing less than P-car heaven.
Both Keiron, Antonio and I have coverage in the pending queue, but to hold you over until then, I figured I’d give a quick recap of the drive down from San Francisco to Los Angeles. After all, any excuse to take a road trip in a one of roughly 300 911 Clubsports is noteworthy in my opinion.
我相信每个人都在期待,我们中的一些人在上周末在Luftgekühlt6度过了一段时间,沉迷于P-car天堂。
凯龙,安东尼奥和我都在待决队列中报道,但是为了让你坚持到那时,我想我会快速回顾从旧金山到洛杉矶的车道。毕竟,在我看来,在大约300个911俱乐部运动中进行公路旅行的任何借口都是值得注意的。


Prior to daylight cresting over the rolling East Bay Area hills and mountains, my alarm set off, and with the usual annoyance I face any time I have to wake up at 4:00am, I reluctantly got out of bed, got ready, and set forth to meet some of the RGruppe guys at a local fuel station.
在东海湾地区连绵起伏的山峦和山脉上空昼夜,我的警报响起,随着我在凌晨4点醒来时常常烦恼,我不情愿地起床,做好准备,并设置好在当地一家加油站见到一些RGruppe家伙。

The first 75% of the trip down wasn’t really anything special to document, hence the reasoning behind the single raw iPhone photo above.
The weather was totally against us too, which was abnormal for this time of the year. It’s nearing summer, and we are still seeing rain, even while I’m writing this. So I guess taking the easy route made sense for us all. Especially since I was breaking in a brand new motor for my buddy G in his recently finished 911CS.
这次旅行的前75%并不是什么特别的文件,因此上面的单张原始iPhone照片背后的原因。
天气也完全不利于我们,这在一年中的这个时候是不正常的。即将到来的夏天,即使在我写这篇文章的时候,我们仍然会看到下雨。因此,我认为采取简单的路线对我们所有人都有意义。特别是因为我在他最近完成的911CS中为我的伙伴G打破了一个全新的电机。



So we took a straight road for 350 miles and eventually ended up in Southern California, stopping in a dirt lot for some impromptu photos. It’s always awesome hanging out and driving with this group, as they refuse giving into automotive social norms, like staying out of rain and/or dirt.
If anything, they tend to encourage it, which is how we ended up here.
因此,我们走了350英里的直道,最终到达了南加利福尼亚州,停在一片土地上拍摄一些即兴照片。因为他们拒绝投入汽车社会规范,比如避免下雨和/或肮脏,所以总是很棒的闲逛和驾驶这个团队。
如果有的话,他们倾向于鼓励它,这就是我们在这里结束的方式。

Shortly after, we finally met with the some of the other members who managed to make the trek down prior to us. Upon arrival to our lunch rendezvous, the Luft effect kicked in. The lot we all parked at had quite a few interesting P-cars scattered around, including one of my all time favorite 993 builds – the GuntherWerks 400R.
不久之后,我们终于见到了其他一些成功在我们之前完成艰苦跋涉的成员。抵达我们的午餐约会后,Luft效应开始了。我们停放的地段有很多有趣的P-cars散落在周围,包括我最喜欢的993版本之一 - GuntherWerks 400R。








Paddy covered one of these back in 2017 at SEMA, and it must have been glorious to see one in that setting. But there’s something about seeing prestige on the road that just gets my panties in bunch – in a good way of course.
This carbon-bodied beauty had just finished a run up and down the Los Angeles mountains, with heat-cycled tires, dirt and grime all over it, and reeking of burning brakes. I couldn’t prefer a better way to see it if I’m honest.
Paddy在2017年在SEMA上覆盖了其中一个,在这种情况下看到一个人肯定是光荣的。但是有一些关于在道路上看到声望的东西,只是让我的*裤内**成群 - 当然是一个好方法。
这种碳浑厚的美女刚刚在洛杉矶山区上下跑,轮胎上有热循环的轮胎,污垢和污垢,还有燃烧的刹车。如果我诚实的话,我不能选择更好的方式来看待它。







After chatting with a few of the random Porsche owners that showed up, our group decided it was our turn to have some fun prior to the big day. Since I was focused more on driving, I again wasn’t able to get a whole lot of action on the way up, though I did snap a couple of photos once we arrived at Newcomb’s Ranch.
在与一些出现的随机保时捷车主聊天之后,我们的团队决定轮到我们在重要日子之前享受一些乐趣。由于我更专注于驾驶,我再次无法在前进的道路上获得很多动作,但是一旦我们到达Newcomb's Ranch,我确实拍了几张照片。



With pre-Luftgekühlt shenanigans in the books, we all took way to the sheets in preparations for the big show ahead. I think we played it safe to not get in over our heads with the weekend, as Luft itself was quite an overwhelming experience the following day. So keeping the vibes chill and easy was definitely the best way to kick off the weekend.
That being said, brace yourselves, because Luftgekühlt 6 is here.
随着书中的前Luftgekühlt恶作剧,我们都在为未来的大型演出做准备。我认为我们安全地在周末没有进入我们的头脑,因为第二天Luft本身就是一次压倒性的经历。所以保持震撼和轻松是绝对是开始周末的最佳方式。
这就是说,因为Luftgekühlt6就在这里。
