I might not get there until later on, but I'll definitely bring some beer & munchies. I have to throw the air box back in the car and put the glove box back in - that's about it other than washing it. Just depends on whether I get up early or not. Anyone going have a vaccum pump to pull a vaccum on my newly installed 134a a/c system? I wanna vaccum it good before I charge it.

Don, in answer to your flaming about this post over on Pelican:
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showt...0&pagenumber=3
"Well........
During my initial introduction to these cars I searched and searched for info...
I found a vast wealth of knowledge on many sites.
There are some extraordinary people out there.
Unfortunately, I am not one of them.
I take pleasure in helping someone with something that I know ( or think I know ).
Anyway, Rennlist was one site that I came upon on my search for the vast knowledge of the P-Car. I always had it in the back of my mind as I found that this site was more to my likeing(sp).
Ever since this thread started, I thought.. I gotta get on Rennlist to check it out..
well... today there was a thread that I saw for a southern california meet. There were many that said " Lets get together "
I saw that and then looked at the day IT WAS TODAY (Sat) ..
I was just about to register (not become a member,just register)..then I saw the rest of the thread.
The rennlist " MEMBERS " were totally IGNORING the posts from other people saying " sounds like fun, where's the meet "..
In other words.. If you are not a paid member.. not only are you NOT invited.. but we will not even aknowledge your (repeated) posts.
Is this really a club that I should belong to.. will I feel warm & Toasty from being a member.
the jury is still out ........."
It appears that everyone that participated in this event sent PM's back and forth about the location, direction, and times. That is fairly common for a lot of people to do when organizing these small get togethers. I think that you and a few others got interested and the "people in the know" didn't get a chance to see the questions and answer before the get together took place.
I don't think anyone ignored or snubbed people because they were non-members like you stated over on Pelican. Rennlist is not elitist like that at all.
Take care,
Jeremy

Went well - yes working on 951s is a PITA but it's up and running now. I got there kinda late in the game (afternoon) and there was a lot already done, but it was still good to see.
Damn, I've gotta get me a 951. . .
Or a 968 engine to put in mine. . .
Or something. . .
PS do you still happen to have those CDs? I forgot to ask to borrow one last time. PM me. Thx.

Hey Don, I sponsored the events at my house and I am not a member. I still contribute what I can to help others on the board. Just search my prior posts.
