Me too.. Thanks all for the video- brings me right back there.

Only missed the credit of uh..MILLER BREWING!!

Thanks to all who participated, donated, hosted and attended. The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

Special mentions to Dan P, Father of 944Fest; John D for Rennlist and attending this year (He'll never be the same..), The Swift's for allowing all us to descend on thier digs, all those who contributed to the video, nice work Carl.

Thanks to all, from "Julie, your cruise director.. "

the Irfanviewer is far superior for playback.. Perry's mirror was aboout the same on content download speed.

if youre on dialup, I suggest a Download manager .. Internet Download Manager will open up 8 or 10 pipes for DL and speed up the process tremendously.

Once again- thanks all.. it's almost like I'm back at the Fest.
It was nice to see the full pack- I was bup in front, behind Fishey with Jeff.. and we missed a lot on the cruise!

Yep.. just another weekend here in Ohio..

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!

40 cases of beer, broken rear shocks and subsequent early retirement of the SAAB 900T, and no credit?
Ahhhh, doesn't matter. As usual, the only credit that matters really goes to Dan P.

I'm stuck here making more beer right now, can't wait to see the vid.

Nice vid Carl!

Very cool, I recognized some of them 944s. Wish I could attend and meet the peeps on this board but I live on the west coast, prolly not gonna have it here. I got an idea. How about a version without music so we can hear the engine?

That really can't be said enough. They let us consume everything. As for the video Dan, I downloaded it off of your server in 3 min 44 sec at an average of 1.02 MB/Sec at 1:15 AM EST.

Metallica's "Sad but True"???? What? Are we Boxster owners??? (just kidding to all Boxster owners now, it's all in good fun)

1. Cool moment I suddenly remember: "All red cars go now!"
2. My next 944 will be black. It just has to happen. Red & black - two coolest sports car colors ever.
3. Are Fuchs the coolest wheels ever?
4. Nice commentary Dan P, haha
5. Breaks? Brakes? Haha
6. Half the cruise did go that way! Haha, at least the guards red portion
7. A shame we didn't have any video between the two of us Pete on our little red 'n blue highway bombing run!
8. Good stuff guys, good times!



Nice job Carl!

Wow... what was the official count of waterpumpers there? I'm still pretty pissed off Lorelei didn't want to go. What are the chances I'd kill two CV joints the day before and the day of my planned trip up there?

Well... 2005, count me in. I'll be there, where ever it may be.

Good job on the video guys!

Holy Schneikies!! I overlooked the Miller support.. Rats.. So sorry, Wade. At least they are our only sponsor not really concerned with the critical advertising we provide. Next year, 2x the Miller kudos! Really, folks..Wade and Leah's contributions were awesome and they deserved mention. Did you see the huge stack of beer? and the sign? That was all comp! You guys are AWESOME!

I think we had 47 or 48 waterpumpers, but split over two days, there were probably 40 or 42ish in the cruise pack (at the start). Thanks for the mirrors, gents!

I'd like to know who the stars of this video are. It looks like there was 3 different in car camers, an early NA, late NA and a 951 (I'm assuming it was a 951 judging by the way he accelerated around the Boxster). Who were the pilot and co pilots? Also durring the middle of the video there's a group of boys and girl standing around a table shooting the bull who was that?
