     Perl, et al.


     YOU SHOULD have sprung big bux for a collapsible Porsche spare in 15".


     What trashes the VC is heat.  So if you go slow enough...say <10MPH
     you can enjoy the view, listen to your favorite CD again (and again)
     and tiddle on home.


     OR you could use a Serious 12V air compressor and the string repair
     kit and get it done on site, continue on to your fave destination, go
     fishin, huntin, sun-bathin, walkin, power-loungin and tiddle on home
     at your own speed.


     Done both.  Fix of puncture is easiest.  Ripped sidewall requires the
     Por$che spare.


     Now if you have the time and the inclination you could simply loosen
     the FDU, take out the shaft, strap it up on the protector bar and run
     the usual spare.
