Wow congrats Joe! Your resume is a car junkies dream and it just keeps getting better! If you have some time ill come by the shop and and see what youre selling that i could use for my car. Also have some questions about my build. Ill message you

 

So with over 2 months in the works, Canepa has failed to secure a work visa for me.


Looks like I'm stuck up here with you guys still!

 

Hey Joe, sucks to hear....but im going to be selfish and say we are glad you are stayin!

 

Did they say how long it'll be before you're able to get down there?
I heard the visas were getting tough to get nowadays.

At least you'll stick around for a bit longer.

 

Does that mean I have to write another Song?..Ode to Brappy Joe???
Hmm..Maybe that gives you time to have a garage sale?..(yahoo?).

 

Sorry to hear that, but I was wondering.... I have a few of my buddies who have tried to make the move down south in the motorsports world. Only 1 made it full time and that was only after he married a girl in California. The other 2 still work in Canada.

Good luck and if you do get down there full time with Canepa, it will be a buzz. Did you at least get to go to the Vintage races in Sonoma last month? My buddies were running in the Trans Am/IMSA race and managed a first place overall in their V6 Beretta! Canepa was there with a ton of cars as usual and I thought you would have been loving it.

so...about your current shop's new 996 gt2...bring it to cscs?!!?1

 

Yeah, being a professional mechanic with a skill-set involving Porsche's and a race mechanic background doesn't qualify for the US government's skilled trades list apparently.

Hopefully I can keep in contact and see what the future brings.


Safo - I don't think my boss will want to bring out the GT2 to a small track event. He already said it doesn't have enough power for Mosport haha.
