"The Puebla Region of the Porsche Club Mexico may not be largest but certainly is the fastest in Latinamerica"
The Puebla Region's first event for 2007 was a GTG & Drive to the city of Taxco. Impeccable organization, great comradery among members and lots of fast driving made of this first event a success. Where the main purpose of the event is socializing, adding the driving element makes it lots of fun. Members displayed the fastest Porsches making it also a great show of power and speed. Early in the morning 17 Porsches took the road from Puebla to Taxco in a day where the fun and speed ended late in the evening...
Let's check out the action...
The start...
Everything started very early in the morning in Puebla...
Playing hookie & Open road...
Who might have thought that this event took place on a Tuesday? Well its seems no one can take off week end social events, from golf tournaments to weddings to third cousin's birthdays... yet missing a day at the office seemed like a good idea for everyone... well almost everyone but me... yet the event took place on a Tuesday... Porsches playing hookie on a Tuesday... 911's on an open road...
Evoms Supercharged...
Evoms specs 470hp for the Supercharged 3.6L. Power delivery is constant and acceleration smooth. Tremendous engine sounds come thanks to a full Supersprint headers/cats/exhaust system. Bilstein PSS9's have been sorted for maximum performance. Suspension tweaks include sway bars, stress bars and 15mm spacers rear 10mm at the front. Stopping power increased via larger front brakes and race pads. Inside you may find extra gauges to keep track of engine statistics, sport seats and Tequipment roll bar. Autodynamica's full service support ensures constant fast driving. Autodynamica @ www.autodynamica.com

Work in progress...
Autodynamica sourced and installed an AWE Tuning exhaust with Evo headers that not only increased hp and reduced lag but also increased driveability. Wide HRE wheels not only look good they keep the 997TT planted on the road. Work in progress supervised by Frissen Gutierrez Porsche Specialist and Tuning Expert...
