Here are a few pics for those that missed the fun. I have a bunch more but I will start with Rocks trany install.

Here is Rocks car backing into the work area with a little assistance.


The second try at getting it over the lip up into the garage.


A little more help and its in!!!


Here is rock pondering the process of getting that big hunk of aluminum in the car.


John hard at work pulling the old trany out.


John hard at work putting the new one in. Also you can see the "E-Brake girl" giving a helping hand.


John and Andy celebrating a job well done.... Trany is in now its time to move on to the fuel rail...



More pics to come.

Thumbs up Pictures


A 944 Fest Shot


This car started life out as a 944 than had a heart transplant into a turbo breathing monster. Lots of hard work went into this, looks great bud!! Your hard work paid off.


My bud Cory and partner in crime!! Tim who is in the hat is 944less but has a nice Audi.


My Car


My engine


Classic Picture of Dan P having a good time that I took last year, didn't get an updated picture this year for obvious reasons.

Yeah, as I recall, that is EXACTLY why we went to bed!!!! I couldn't tell the story the next day for laughing. For those who were there, how close did Andy get "to the birdhouse?" (God, I'm laughing as I type this!!!!!!).

Last year's catch phrase ended up being "It's decent". I think this year's is "Why don't you aim those things the other way?" (For those by the campfire, you'll know......)

It looked like he got within a couple feet before we all got the old man lecture from a certain somebody . Given a couple more tries, I bet Andy could have nailed that thing.

Man, I was in on that, campeck was loading the bottle and Andy was setting the angle, It had to be within a foot. We would have had it... a shirtless Alpineweis stopped us. Sorry we kept you all awake, but it was good fun. I wonder if the Lady next door finds a few bottle rockets next time she goes fishin in the pond...

We forgot to put a rennlist sticker on the back of her house...

Hey Dale, what's up with you leaving and not stomping on my foot on the way out before you left? (This is Kale BTW).

I just don't think that you had a "Leg UP" on the situation!

I donated half a brick of pop-bottle rockets- Glad they went to some good.. and still worked! They were at least 2 years old.
