In this issue, Michael Harley brings you a first look at the new Andial limited-run 911 GT3 Cups and a detailed account of how they feel on the track. In 917-028, Bill Oursler tells the story of one of the first two 917 Spyders, a race car that despite its disappointing first season went on to enjoy one of the longest racing careers of any 917. Prescott Kelly takes us through the history of the Type 930, and discusses their growing popularity among collectors in On the Market. In Wheeling & Dealing—with your Life, Doug Neilson digs into the engineering science of aluminum alloy wheels, and the potential dangers of infrequent inspections. Finally, Ted West introduces us to one of two Troutman & Barns 914 pickups in Hell Camino. 

Of course, regular Panorama departments Tech Q&A, European Windows, From the Regions, Street Talk, Art & Canvas, Junior Driver, and zwART are all present and accounted for. Enjoy the issue!
