If we have a clear stretch of road, I'll bring the G-Tech for hp measurements. It's pretty accurate.
I say save the dyno money and just hand the prize to Horsepower Farm...

I dunno - Andy is a boost-crazed madman. Who else turbos a mower? If only two cars get on the dyno, it'd better be those guys.

This is great, i'm really excited about the 944 fest. jmporsche944 itwould be sweet to caravan there together. I'll ask a few of my other porsche friends if they would like to drive their 944's as well. Nothing better than a Porsche caravan. By the way did you join the NNJR-Porsche club of america? You should, there are many events and what not throughout the year.

It would be really cool to come and see all you guys out east that are so active on this forum and chat it up. But alas, I could never make the drive...Driving to Seattle is one thing, but Ohio...
Last August we had about 24 watercoolers, about 20 of them 944's, the others were sharks! We are pretty active 944 drivers up here, I'm sure we could have an even huger event if it was planned Dan-style.

hahaha, yeah, this year we need some volunteers that are really into that kind of stuff and want to devote time to taking film. I may try to get some camera mounts setup on my car....
but I really don't want to spend alot of time filming... I'd rather enjoy the fun.

i agree with Dale.. old guard vs the vangard.. old school vs new school. Winslow vs Andy.. hpfarm vs nine-44... battle of the century. that would be the ****.

and then for laughs.. have the winner face the 912 in a drag race

There are plenty of westcoasters who want to make it to 944Fest but can't cuz it's a bit too far...
Id be in for sure for a local one, even if I do go to Ohio (two events different dates I hope )

Besides, after 10k km, whats a couple hundred around BC? Buahahahahaha

No chance in hell I'd ever go to a 944fest, but I enjoy the videos a lot!
